I did two weeks. Not insurance required...surgeon required for me.

"My Diet is Better than Your Diet" -- random rambling...
Elode replied to LipstickLady's topic in Rants & Raves
Oprah is a fraud. She is the LAST person I would take any weightloss advice from seeing as how she's rich beyond measure, has a chief, personal trainer, glam squad ect..and still can't get her shit together. She could literally have someone exercise her body for her and she still can't keep it off longer than a few months. I don't know why WW would even support a multimillionaire failure in the weigh loss division. I don't trust them. They should pick a real human that has done WW and kept it off for a few years. They aren't repeatable in my opinion. As far as the show....no clue what it is. -
Best way I have found to make coffee
Elode replied to Nurse_Lenora's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
@@MzB Basically. 3 am comes early! And I'm NOT putting protein in it!!! I can fit it in somewhere else. I'm not messing with my coffee! Good for those who do.....not me. -
People are stupid. Some feel the need to talk just to hear their own voices. While that situation does happen it's only going to happen if that's what you want. You may want to remind them that when they cut open your stomach that didn't unhinge your legs. Not everyone loses weight for the purpose of running off. So ignorant. You may also want to point out some of the important issue going on in the world that could use some of their attention so they will have something else to focus on besides your life.

Elode replied to Nurse_Lenora's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I drink coffee just like I always have. Coffee, one pack of Splenda and powdered creamer. I'm alive and doing just fine. -
New NSV and Best friend- future workout partner
Elode posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hi all! I was at one of our clinic today where we have a new employee. One of the nurses there has decided to have WLS since seeing my success. We were talking about it since her surgery is next Tuesday and the new girl started asking me about mine. I told her I was 267 last year and now I'm 145. She says "wow I didn't not think you weighed that!" I was stuffing a rollo in my mouth at the time and started to spit it out. I said oh, what I look like I weigh more huh? She says no way! You look so small! I never would have guessed you were ever big! That made my day!! Next, I got this new guy in my life! He's my future jogging partner once the weather warms up. I'm gonna do it this time. I'm kind of in love! Hope everyone is doing well -

Elode replied to Missariana39's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Maybe your stressed or depressed about something? At least you are blind to it. Try to get a grip on it! Good luck! -

Yay! Congratulations!

Is it unwise to have the gastric sleeve surgery without medical insurance?
Elode replied to citylights310's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes and maybe no? There's no good answer here because we can't see into the future. I can honestly say I haven't NEEDED to see my surgeon since surgery. I didn't have any complications so my check ups are just routine junk. I could go to my primary for labs if I needed to so really I haven't a lot of use for my surgeon now. I still go because I have insurance but if I didn't I wouldn't. If you have issues it could cost you a small fortune. Flip a coin! ☺️ -
Aren't hormones the best??!

Does it require sucking in air? If it does it won't feel good!

Tell'em to F off! Seriously just say that. It will make you feel better! If I were with you I'd say it for you. Just give me your address and I'll go everywhere with you. I wish someone would!

NSV - Shopping at a Regular Store
Elode replied to Inner Surfer Girl's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Yay!!!! Congratulations!! -
I see a new "Gofundme" everyday for the craziest things! I'm going to set up a Gofundme account to fix my "give a sh*t meter" because it's broken! I'm not sure how much it's going to cost to fix it but I'm sure it's more than I can afford. Now, to you...if I were in your shoes I would defiantly go to Mexico! That's what I was going to do but we have Fed insurance through my hubs work that was excellent and paid for it (he's been working over 35 years so he's more than paid his fair share trust me) Please don't call me "lucky" lucky would have been not needing it at all! Not going to Mexico when you can afford that route and asking others for money instead is like being a starving person who rejects a sandwich because it's has mayo on it. It's the whole "beggars can't be choosers" scenario. In the end it's up to you but go to MEXICO and enjoy!!! Adios!

Hi all, I've decided I can literally eat anything I want and the scale will either A): Not budge or B: Go down. It doesn't make any sense. I can eat super healthy and stay the same or eat chocolate cake and junk food all day and lose a pound. I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not. I don't particularly want to lose anymore right now. I'm pretty happy with where I'm at. Anyone else have this "problem". How do you STOP losing weight?
