  1. Congrats I am so glad that your surgery went well and your recovery is going good, I cant wait to join you soon. Keep us posted on your progress.
  2. You must not be so hard on yourself, we all have made poor choices in our life but you are on your way when you made the choice to become healthy, although this is a tough and emotional time for you I want you to remember one thing, you are LOVED take one day at a time and do not focus on the exact surgery date. Give your self credit for making good choices when you choose your meals and remember that you are working toward a healthier you. If your family members and friend are not supportive , we are here for you. I also suggest that you get a journal and start writing your feelings down, this has help me prepare for my impending surgery. I have to do a 6 month weight management, and I am in month 4. You are stronger and braver then you think. Anytime you need to talk we are here or you can email me. I look forward to your post, vents, as well as high and lows.

  7. This must happened always, because I am in my fourth month and just found out none of my management sheets were fax over , today they were finally fax over and I have two more months to go. I agree with the above statement stay on them because I see now this is common practice. Good luck.

    Doubts: sleeve necessary?

    Hi I believe its is both, I have to do a 6 month weight management as well, and I am now on Month four. And with exercise and eating properly I have begun to loose weight. I do believe that although this is a tool the tool is only as good as the user, if you do not take responsibility of your eating and what you are eating as well as maintain exercise that you will gain the weight back. Because I had no idea of just how many calories that I was consuming in a day and by using myfitnesspal it has allowed me to become aware of what I am eating as well as how much, and why. Good look on your journal.
  12. This was very helpful and thank you for sharing your experience , I am glad that you are recover has been very successful, I am hoping that my recovery is as similar to yours, I am required to do a 6 month weight management and will be entering my fourth month in 1 week.
  13. Congrats everything seems to be working out just great, keep us posted on the updates.

    Feeling Alone

    I am sorry that you are struggling with your love ones but know this as well as take comfort in this you alone know why you are jumping through hoops to have this surgery do that you can have a better you. This decision must be your own not anyone else . I wish I could take you to your appointment , we are here for you, by the way I have to have attend a surgery informational meeting as well . Where are you having surgery perhaps we can be a support for each other since you and I will be having surgery around the same time . Good luck . Also perhaps if your husband can attend a support group meeting with you it might help .
  20. ShayLove is the your first time meeting the doctor , you will be going over your option as well as you might meet your nut, they will discuss any other test that they want you to have.
  21. I want to wear a sweater dress with cowboy boots.
