    HELP

    you misunderstood. I wasnt saying make sure you want to have the surgery I was saying make sure you want to have the surgery there.
  2. Nickkibear24

    I don't know what to do.

    No one can make the choice for you on whether or not surgery is a good idea. Also anyone who is willing to leave you over you wanting to get healthy should not be with you. Good job on staying active and having goals. its a major surgery so being afraid to take the step is completely normal. but make sure you are sure you are able to make the life changes. Good luck and if you need a surgery buddy let me know mine is august 6th.

    HELP

    most military facilities make you attend a MOVE program where you go once a week for a weigh in for six months. Also if I were you I would think very hard about whether or not you really want to have it done there. I was in the Military and had to have surgery twice and they nearly killed me both times.

    birth control

    My doctor said that those were the best options. she said that the pill wont work but I have PCOS so birth conrol serves no purpose for me, plus im not married and the horizontal dance does not appeal to me so i guess abstinence is the best lol . But you should be ok with your IUD and condoms

  10. My co worker is a avid workout freak and he bought a Water bottle that has 32 oz of water in it. he drinks 2 a day during work and more while he woks out. half the time he doesn't even notice hes done it. You can do it hun keep trying.

      Im 5'3 also, but can't stand recliners as they don't fit me well. I need to lay flat to sleep, so I slept very well on the couch for 3 days. I needed help getting on and off the couch for the 1st 2 days, ( you will need someone there to help with EVERYTHING ) then was able to manage by myself. After that, no problems !!!

    Congrats at least your getting your confidence back. As for your name, this is america so by all means feel free to have whatever screen name you want. For the rest of you please take a moment to revert back to the time when not every word had a disgusting double meaning.

    Where are all the august people

    You are the day after me are you nervous or excited
  16. A little nervous about surgery. I understand the basics but I'm not a fan of hospitals especially because I'll have to do this alone

      alone through the whole journey?? sorry if thats true. maybe you can meet people at a support group - talk to your doc/nut about seeking out people that are in your boat - good luck - speedy recovery kathy

    August sleevers

    august 6th Yay!!!
  18. wow reading some of these post actually make me not want to post here. If you find a question to be stupid simply don't answer it. Some people actually don't know or they have a very crappy NUT that isn't really helping them be realistic. Others haven't come to the conclusion that weight loss surgery isn't magic yet. oh and BTW 20 year olds arent all immature. If you consider yourself a "veteran" try actually helping instead of belittling people. try to remember how people were towards you when you were first starting

    Any August Sleevers?

    Hello, So I've been reading a lot of the post on here and I haven't posted anything myself just because I wasn't sure if it was even going to happen but I finally got my surgery date yesterday yay!!! My surgeon is requiring me to be on a liquid diet from now until my surgery date. Does anyone know if its possible to lose 15 pounds before August 6th??
