Edie lets look at the ratio of weight lost to beginning weight instead of strait lbs lost. For example my start weight is over 50 lbs more than yours. You have lost 20 lbs. I have lost 24lbs. You and I both have lost about 8% of our body weight. You take someone who weighed about 330 lbs to start with and they would have to lose 27 lbs to keep up with you. (that's if my math is correct).

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

Edie honey. I havint had it done yet but im much bigger than yourself. My Doc told me to expect to lose 100lbs. I might lose more or I might lose less. He said there was no way he could tell me how much the surgery would take care of. If you see my total I almost have to lose 200lbs honey. WOW thats alot ! LOL dang........ i just really seen that myself. The way Lady Hawk and Kenya are explaining it to you is right. Be thankful your not my size darlin.

Boots I know things are looking pretty grim right now but that is nothing but the little devil, telling you this isn't going to work either. Hun tell him the devil is a liar and you are going to prove that you are going to get past this. Keep you chin up. Things will all happen in time.

WELL I KNOW I WASNT SUPPOSE TO GO ON THE SCALE  BUT I COULDNT HELP MYSELF. WELL FINALLY I LOST 2 LBS. HOPEFULLY I WILL CONTINUE AT THIS PACE. ALSO I WILL TRY TO STAY AWAY FROM THE SCALE BUT ITS HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! STILL FEELING BLUE AGAIN TODAY!!! BREAKFAST I HELD DOWN, LUNCH I THREW UP TRIED AGAIN IN A HALF HR AND THEN FINALLY HELD IT DOWN. THEN LATER IN THE DAY I STARTED FEELING NAUSCIOUS. I COULDNT EVEN DRINK MY WATER WHICH I KNOW IS BAD BUT I REALLY FELT LIKE CRAP. TONIGHT I HAD 1/4 OF YOGURT FOR DINNER, FIGURED I BETTER KEEP IT LITE. IM FEELING OK NOW BUT STILL TAKING IT REAL EASY CAUSE IM STILL NOT 100%. SPOKE TO DOC AND I WILL CONTINUE TO KEEP HIM POSTED. HE THINKS IT JUST MY POUCH BEING A GROUCH FROM THE SYMPTOMS I DESCRIBED TO HIM. PROBABLY ALSO BECAUSE I HAD SUCH A TUFF TIME SINCE DAY ONE OF THE SURGERY. BUT HE STILL WANTS TO KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON ME.

I Also Noticed I Have To Take Bites Sizes Like The Size Of My Pinky Nail (which Is Pretty Small, Lol) And I Have To Take An Hour To Eat My Meal Of Only A 1/4 Cup. Any Bite Bigger Than That Gets Me Sick. I Always Took Small Bites And Usually Finished My Meal In Half Hr To 45 Min. But Now I Have Changed It To What I Described Above Which Help Somtimes.

This is the very reason I dont own a scale. The hubby seen a nice one Sunday and said you want this....... I was like NOOOOOOOOOOOO! He said but you can keep up with your self after the surgery this way. Im supposed to go back one week after the day I had surgery. Then one month if all is well on that visit. Then My PCP will start doing labs at 6 weeks. I will wait on there scales to see me though for a while on purpose. This is my plan anyways. So mabye you got someone that can take that scale from you and hold on to it for ya for a bit? Or you will have to go over and visit it only when you have time? What ya think.

Lol Lol. That Is A Good Idea Ms Vickie But Its So Hard For Me To Tell My Dh To Hide That Scale For Me. Lol. I Will Try And Work On This And Hopfully Give It Up To Him. Even Though I Did Say I Will Stay Away From The Scale Its So Hard For Me Not To Know It Wont Be In The Bathroom. It Sounds So Crazy. Lol

I gained weight at my 1st Dr. visit and was still on clear liquids. I lost some then stopped for a couple of weeks. I'm down over 135# now. I haven't weighed myself in a month and a half because the scale really screws with my head. You have been through #%&* and back. If your eating what your supposed to then your going to loose. Put the scale away for a while and work at feeling good and being good to yourself. You deserve some serious self pampering after your experience.
