  1. Im trying to set a personal goal for me. I am going on vacation in the begining of August, so another 2 months. I wanted to get to 208 before my vacation. Is this goal realistic? 26 pounds a month is about right. Ive done amazing with my weight loss from surgery 6 weeks ago.. Its obviously going to slow down, but does this sound realistic? Working my a** off!! Litterally.. lol
  2. Amazing job! HappyBirthday! lol
  3. 6 weeks post op today and finally feeling back to myself.. No regrets like I have prior.

  4. I had surgery the same day and Ive been doing about an hour workout 4-5 days a week. I try to do about 20 minutes on the treadmill.. and 35-40 on the elliptical. Sometimes I lift some weights at the gym too when im done but nothing much.

    Make sure you check with your surgeon before you take something. Some only want you to use certain items.

    Do I go on a waiting list?

    That's how section 8 is. Emergency case or not. Got to wait. Look into some foundations that have housing all around. They can get you apartment's fairly quickly, all rent based on income. I live in an apartment complex that the Caleb Foundation owns and rents to me on how much income is coming in.

    I apply for public housing

    There are a lot of great housing out there from great foundations that have mile long waiting lists but in certain cases they can get you apartments pretty quickly, and based on income with mostly everything included.
  18. Thats how I am.. LOL. I didn't do anything for 4 weeks and lost weight every day. Ive been back to the gym for 5 days and gained 2 pounds.

    Do I go on a waiting list?

    I know every state is different but here they only open Section 8 applications one day a year and the list to obtain a voucher is 3, 4, 5 years long.
