emma88 19 Posted March 19, 2015 I like her and in my case my bmi is really high so she wanted me to lose 40 pounds before my operation I have lost 13 so far but if I get this 30 pounds off my April 22 I wud do surgery but if I have not reached that goal yet it would have to be postponed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nyelaah 77 Posted March 19, 2015 Good luck with the WL!! You can do it!! What range does she consider really high? I'm wondering if she would ask me to lose a certain amount. We shall see Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
