In time you'll realize this is one of the best things you could've done to better your health. Results will come. Just do what they tell you.
Maybe a family member or friend can help you out till your back on your feet. Maybe the Landlord can work with you or maybe get a personal loan. You should be able to go back to work within a couple of weeks. Good Luck to you.

I'm sorry you're having a rough time (at life)- I've been there too... It looks like you've lost a ton of weight and I'm sure your health is better. I would advise you just to stick with it and things will get better. Prayers up for you sister.

I understand that at this particular moment it feels like your entire world is falling apart, fortunately for you it is only a feeling. When things are going wrong the first thing that we want to do is to pinpoint a blame (cause and effect). As far as your rent is concern you can go to the dept. of public welfare or your local community action program and they will point you in the direction to get help with covering your rent. As far as your weight is concern stop comparing your outcome to others. We didn’t all gain at the same time and we are not going to lose at the same time. It takes up to 18 months to lose all of the weight and reach your target. Extra stress tends to make you stress eat and you will start regaining what you have already lost. Just do as your doctor advise you, and start looking for ways to get help to save your home. You got this all you need to do is to activate what you know and put it into action.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
