Default feeling discouraged!

i have been getting discouraged, this month has not been very good for weightloss. i really wanted to make it to 200 pounds by the time i see my surgeon for my 6th month visit. now my appt is on feb 18th and i feel that goal slipping away from me, it seems like i have no patience or confidence in myself anymore. like i am thinking i cant do this. am i just being too hard on myself? sometimes i guess maybe i need someone to tell me to chill out!! lol

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.

i say take it easy and you will get there. i wish it happend slower for me to be honest. i didnt get the opportunity to get comfortable with the changes taking place and now that i am here its a bit awkward. embrace the time that you have on the journey. it doesnt have to happen quick and in a hurry, but it WILL happen.

I'm sure your surgeon will be pleased by your present weight, you've done exceptionally well. Not many people, esp women can lose over 100lbs in 6 months, even with surgery.
Congratulations on your fabulous job!!
