I got my blood test done :P next wednesday i start Optifast time is going by so fast. I just hope i can do as well as everyone else. Saw my doctor yesterday his really weird he told me i will never be skinny:rolleyes than he told me sometimes weight lost surgery dont work :think but if i did it would help my blood pressure ( It only goes up when i see him) but he did tell me that i could get my tt cover by health care. And he told me health care should give me what they would pay for the bypass toward the lap band lol.

Spite can be one of the best motivators.

I am determined to show health care too since they are giving me such a hard time with the lap band. The doctor told me they should give me what ever $$$ they cover for the bypass that would be nice. Anyways you don't get anywhere without trying so I'm trying to fight health care.

Good luck with your surgery and your journey. Positive thoughts are needed to make it successful. I had the most negative responses from my family and you should see them eat crow now.

Remember to take things one step at a time and do what the clinic tells you to do. If you take their advice you can't fail. Have a good week!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
