I'm still getting messages from him. I've deleted 500, but they are still coming. How do I stop them. -

Blue Cross of Florida just crushed my dreams
verdalilly replied to stuart85's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I live in Colorado.... They changed the requirements for my insurance to cover the surgery 3 days before my paperwork was turned in.. I was denied. However my doctor wrote a letter and they approved me based on his letter. Don't give up hope. Good luck -

New to this site. Sleeve on 3/20/15. Hit a STALL!
verdalilly replied to Tina1977's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I hit a stall after 10 days. It tool 3 weeks before the scale moved. I was so stressed out I thought the surgery didn't work. Finally I have lost 7 pounds this week. Stop weighing do a few days ( easier said than done) and relax it will happen. It happens at the right pace for you. Don't compare yourself to others (also easier said than done). But everyone loses at a different pace. Its normal. -

I had them both done st the same time and everything went great. Surgery was 4/28/15. A week later I was begging my doc to let me go back to work. I had no pain and was bored to death. Lol. Good luck I hope everything goes well for you. -

What was your past slob memory
verdalilly replied to AussieSam's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I was living in north Carolina. It was midnight and I wanted chocolate. I didn't keep it in the house and I didn't have a car and the nearest store was 4 miles away. Safe, right? WRONG!!!! I walked 4 miles to the store the whole time thinking by the time I got there I wouldn't want it anymore. Oh no not the case at all. I got there and bought 3 king size candy bars. You know cus I couldn't decide which one sounded best. I ate all 3 on the way home so that there was no evidence of having them at all...... Ashamed and embarrassed!!!! -
Thus is my first challenge as well. Good luck.

I will add you.

I had my sleeve on 4/28. 10 days after surgery I hit a stall. Its been 3 weeks now and I have lost 1 pound in that time. I lost 27 pounds in the first 10 days. I know that is a lot for 1 month however when you can't eat much of anything and you exercise and its still not coming off it becomes very stressful. I know that lots of people go thru the same thing but it seems that for most of you it doesn't last this long. I'm having a very hard time staying positive. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you all. My clothes still fit the same, or at least it appears so to me. But I just came to the docs office and the nurse that I saw just 3 weeks ago almost didn't recognize me. So something must be working. I do appreciate all of the support.
-
. Very true. I keep thinking its not working and that it's all for nothing. . I know its just my mind messing with me and past failures haunting me, but none the less its still hard
-
I get between 8 and 11 cups of water a day and at least 60 grams of protein. I try to get it to 80. It doesn't always work tho
-
My current weight is 243. My goal weight is 235
-
I use it. You can friend me if you like.
-
I have that fear also. I'm down 28 pounds since my sleeve on 4/28. But I've been in a stall for 2 1.2 weeks and I feel like maybe that's it for me. I'm glad to know I'm not alone.
-
Everyone messes up at some point. I'm sure that you are not alone. I had a scrambled egg 2 days before I should have. I don't get hungry except in my brain. I have to be very aware of what I am doing so that I don't mindlessly put things in my mouth. Don't best yourself up. Pick yourself up dust yourself off and stay strong. Good luck
