well folks i had to postpone my surgery till january.not a big deal atleast i'll enjoy the holidays.i am down to 255 from 268.the surgery would have been too much had i gotten it done on the 6th,as i would have been in the middle of moving.jan will be here before i know it

thanks guys for your input,and to let you know i havent had surgery yet.just trying to lose a few on my own

well,i'm down to 257 from 263.its not much but its something:tt2:

hi terry,how much was the 20%?did you have to pay up front?

well here i sit, still waiting to to see if medicare approved me.i know they will because i have a bmi of 42 with co morbidities.the wait is killing me....everything is in order as far as all the other doctors i had to see.on the other hand i still have to pay 20% of the bill and pray that they will let me make monthly payments.if not i dont know what to do?????:thumbup:

i'm waiting also and just like you its driving me nuts:cursing:we have come this far and it took a while,waiting a little more is aprt of the joiurney i guess.keep your chin up it will happen sooner then you think

day 3 of not having any carbs,down 3 lbs:thumbup:

at least your going into this knowing what you may or may not ecpect

well as of this morning i am down 3 lbs.will weigh in again tomorrow morn

i dont know how i did it but i lost 3lbs since yesterday. i always weigh my self in the morn as that is your true weight--i think?:thumbup:

dont i wish!nope only 3 lbs maybe i should have seperatede it

who care what anyone thinks,its your choice not his!!so dont let it get you down.also,if you did your homework,it specifies that the surgery is not a quick fix,you have to work at it..you'll be fine just stay focused and dont let anyone bring you down:lol:laura
