That asshat is my new favorite word?

I don't even know what it means but it makes me laugh every time I type/say it.

Ok I have to admit that I have an alltime favorite word too!! It is, drum roll please, SALPINGOPEXY. Say that over and over it is just fun. I learned that when I was going through medical terminology class. It means a fixation of the fallopian tubes, weird huh??

Welcome back Gibson! We missed you.

Asshat...can't say I've ever heard it, but I shall add it to my lexicon. I'm all for expanding my vocabulary!!

You girls are so funny. =)

Get this....I started low-carbing yesterday. Low-carbing is the only way I've ever dieted successfully in my almost 39 years on this planet. So, after ONE DAY of low-carbing, I woke up at 296 pounds. That's two pounds less than I've ever been from SEVEN MONTHS AFTER MY STINKIN' SURGERY!!!!!

SO, I'm happy and irritated at the same time. Now, this means if I lose 10 pounds before my appointment on the 11th he'll probably refuse to give me a fill again. That's why I'm going to carry lead in my pocket. =) (Seriously..)

Take that, Dr. ASSHAT!!!!! =)

Perfect solution for a Dr. Asshat. Now you just have to keep a straight face when you get on the scale. Least this way you can struggle to diet some weight off and still get the fill you so badly need. It sounds like he thinks the only indicator is how much weight you are losing. What about how much you are able to eat, have you had anything get stuck, are you having trouble with any foods, do you have any acid reflux, how much Water and Protein are you taking in per day, how much exercise? These are questions my doctor asks me every single visit. They are all indicators of your band status. Bahhh, nevermind me, I know you know you need a fill and sounds like you've found the answer to get a fill from him. Does he ever do fills under flouro?

Good luck with the low-carbing approach; it is not something I can do but I do know that it is successful for many.

As for carrying lead in your pocket...if you put it in a stocking, it would make a good weapon with which to knock your doc unconscious, then grab the needle, and fill-er-up!! :party:

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
