My friend used Depo and she has commented on how it made her gain alot of weight and it is hard to get the weight off. I wouldn't use it. Sent from my SM-G925T using the BariatricPal App

Thats great you liked it. I too am having a hard time losing the weight but my life is pretty hectic right now. Hope you like the group in saratoga too. Sent from my SM-G925T using the BariatricPal App

I meant to but I got caught up at work. I'll be at the next one. I hear its a really good one. Sent from my SM-G925T using the BariatricPal App

Yes. And thats what is making me wonder if the sleeve is best option for me because my doc says I might still be in the 200s. Sent from my SM-G925T using the BariatricPal App You might grow a trunk and a monkey tail, too. Ya' never know. Lmao...i like your perspective. It really just makes me want to roll the dice even more and just say "Que sera sera". Sent from my SM-G925T using the BariatricPal App I prefer this: I love this and its so true. Thanks!

Good for you. I am glad you are being proactiv. I get so annoyed when people say things like "You are not that big, why are you getting surgery?". In my mind I'm thinking "I have the fat gene and I may not look that big to you now but I know where my weight can go and I want to get ahold of this before I get to 3-400 pounds and cant get out of bed". Ok end of rant lol. Congrats!!! Sent from my SM-G925T using the BariatricPal App

Safeway carries apple slices that are 30 calories a bag and 7 grams of carbs. That may be a nice alternative to a full size apple and apple slices go great with PB2. Sent from my SM-G925T using the BariatricPal App

I often wonder that too (and I am pre op). Will I forever be obsessed with food and my weight? Sent from my SM-T800 using the BariatricPal App

I know you may not want to hear this but....losing 30 pounds in 3.5 months is better than gaining 30 pounds in 3.5 months. You are doing much better than you think and you should be very proud of yourself. I know this journey is a difficult one but I believe in the end it will be worth it. Good luck and please keep us posted. Sent from my SM-T800 using the BariatricPal App

I too hope Lola does get to her goal weight before going for gender reassignment. I think Pauline has made great progress even though Dr. Now expects a faster rate of progress with all of his patients. I noticed that with Marla as well. Sent from my SM-G925T using the BariatricPal App
