Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  |  I GUESS WE ALL HAVE THE SAME FEARS!!! I FEEL LIKE THIS WONT WORK OR SOMETHING CAUSE I CANT IMAGINE MYSELF WITH ALL THIS WEIGHT GONE OR ONCE IT DOES WORK ILL GAIN IT BACK AND LOSE CONTROL OF MYSELF,ETC. THE ONLY THING I CAN THINK OF IS: WE ARE ADDICTS AND LIKE ALCHOLICS WE MUST TAKE ONE DAY AT A TIME AND STAY WITH THE MEETINGS AND BOARDS OR WE WILL FALL OFF THE WAGON!!! AND ALSO LIKE ADDICTS IF YOU FEEL LIKE YOUR GOING TO BINGE THEN TALK TO YOUR SPONCER FIRST(the boards, a friend from your meetings, etc)

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.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  | Ya know when I lost weight many years ago honey I had the same fears. And I wanted to look good but men can be so rude. Women to. Of course times have changed now and my hubby would surely give them a disgruntled look. My hubby married me nice and fat........ So im not scared of that considering his exwife is a looker and a whole 120lbs. The part im really anxious about is the way people will treat me afterwards. I dont mean to like finally get invited to somthing I normally dont but the way im spoken to. I want to see what the other side is like. When your fat you know what I mean. I want to see if there looking at my brain still or that I look NORMAL to them. Im sure i will post about this later. Kenya honey.... What you fear.... make it a research project for yourself. Say nothing to them about it. See if you notice changes. And a hint on men. Date someone you would never think you have somthing in common with. Change is great. I found me a hubby that way ! LOL. |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  | everybody: thanks for the support. sometimes it helps me to just put it into words. at times i may not make sense, and some may not always agree, but its how i am feeling at the moment. I feel like im in an extremely fragile place. so i am taking some time off from work to just focus on some things. i need to get a grip on this or i am going to screw it up just like all the other diets and exercise plans that fell thru the cracks.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Ok, I hear you. I was divorced after 28 yrs of marriage ( ex hub left for a coworker and is now miserable) and gained most of my weight from depression. I dated but men that I should have known only wanted 1 thing. Yep, you guessed it right. Anyway I was ashamed of myself because I had no self esteem and it was like shopping. You know when we would buy something just because it fit, not necessarily because it made us pretty. A friend finally told me there is a man somewhere that will fall in love with who I was on the inside and won't even notice the body I was in. Lo and behold and after praying I met a wonderful man that loves me for who I am. Losing weight now will also be a gift to him as well as myself. We met 5 yrs. ago in April and married 4 yrs ago in May. Love yourself and keep exercising and following the plan. Those endorphins will release, rejuvinate you, give you self esteem and then you will know you are worthy of true love, not just what fits, but the real thing. Mattie

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I have the same fears about regaining the weight. I've been there twice and couldn't stop myself from putting it all back on (plus another 10 or so). Here's what helps me: 1. There are several studies out there that are saying that you have "normal" hunger after WLS, not the raging, constant NEED TO EAT. Some think that it has to do with having the vagus nerve snipped when they do the surgery. 2. I know someone who's around 8 years out. She was around 450 pounds and now maintains 165. She eats normal foods, only in small quantities, and every now and then she says she's up 5 pounds and has to diet to take them off. She's my inspiration. |
