vmarlau 207 Posted June 17, 2013 and so we are upset' date=' why?? seems to me that w/o that fill that got you upset..you are doing well...so what is the problem?[/quote'] That the doctor told me no more fills until I lost weight ... N wants me to lose 10lbs in two weeks I guess what got me upset is he made me feel like I was not doing good enough ... But thank you I feel better now! I'm going to increase my walking to 45min instead of 30min see if that helps a lil w/the scale 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrsto 2,925 Posted June 17, 2013 Protein not so much but I'm doing less then 1200 a day.. So.....you're doing well, yes? Based on what you're saying, one day you're going to get on the scale & see some pounds dropping off. As Carolinagirl said, sometimes it's inches, before seeing movement on the scale.< /p> I do suggest that you start counting your Protein. It's the key to this whole thing, and if you're not getting in a minimum to 60 grams per day, it's not healthy. Also - if a lot of your 1200 calories is carbs, that can also be an issue. Have you tried the application MyFitnessPal? It tracks both calories and protein, and is an excellent program. You can use it on your phone, computer, iPad......all of it.

kll724 3,055 Posted June 17, 2013 Welldone, I did the same ting. I bought a dress, went to wear it a 2nd time and it was so big I could have put 2 of me into it. I felt a little bad, but Salvation Army sure must have been happy! 2 mrsto and vmarlau reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bandakat412 26 Posted June 17, 2013 Your doctor sounds like an asshat. My inner fat girl just got crazy angry. I hate when people say "well go lose weight". Duh you have to try no matter the surgery, but if we could go lose weight without surgery, we wouldn't be here!!! 2 meachie and vmarlau reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brianb 81 Posted June 18, 2013 Thinking this is a no brainer. Time to find a new doctor. 5.9 CC isn't bad, but it seems like most are over 6 before they hit the green zone and stay there. Definitely worth getting a second opinion. Really sounds like the doctor doesn't know what he is doing and is a jerk to boot. Ugh. 1 vmarlau reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
