MrsRDH 0 Posted September 26, 2008 Yeah, I'm pretty excited, nervous and scared. I hit disgusted yesterday when I got on the scale and saw the results of my two week long "last meal" binge. KarenK Thanks for making me giggle! I needed that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Short n' Sassy 0 Posted September 26, 2008 KarenK, Just tell yourself 10 times, "the scale is my friend." Then take a hammer to it and beat it all to pieces. I promise, it will make you feel better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At least they made my mother wait in the other room while they forced me on the scale - my size 8 mother who complained the entire way to the doctor's office about the extra 5 pounds left over from her Alaskan cruise she still needs to lose . Talk to me when it's 105, mother! Shanna234 - best of luck to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have not heard of NASH before, and I'm sorry you have it. I bet once you have your surgery and loose the weight you will feel 100% better. My surgery date is October 27th and I am doing it because my PCP pushed me for it. I'm only 33 though, I bet you will feel like a kid again (no offense) :thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
