OMG I am so sorry for the reaction of you Daughter and Husbend. I really do hope that they come around and realize that you are doing what is best for you and in the ling run best for them because you be around longer by doing it. I am glad that you found this site as you will find alot of help and support here people wont put you donw just to put you down. I completly beleave in that fact that this will work for you as long as you put the work in and the fact that you have made this HUGE decision to me means that you are willing to put the work in. Please dont let them get you down just keep it in the back of your mind that you are going to prove taht you can do this to them. I know I am not very close by to you I live in Las Vegas but if you ever need some one to talk to about this please feel free to send a PM and I can give you my number. Good luck and please keep us updated -

Not in any specific order 1. I want shopping to be a happy experience instead of a depressing one. 2. I want to kick this PCOS and one day have children and not so much damn Cramping 3. I want to have a better handle on my weight before my hasimotos completely destroys my thyroid 4. I want my joints to not hurt any more 5. I want to be able to go upstairs with out huffing and puffing 6. I want to be noticed and not looked past like I am invisible 7. I want to control how much I eat instead of the food controling me 8. I want to stay healthy 9.I dont want to hide behind my self any more 10. The absolute top reason I am having the vsg done is because I watched my Grandmother and Great Grandmother Die from obesity related issues in the same year at a young age and I dont want to end up like them I want to take my own LONG path to old age

I had a simalar thig happen to be when I tried to cancel my 24 hour fitness membership. A month afer I canceled I was looking at my bank statement and ut showed that they had charged me another month so I called them and they said it was policy to charge an aditional month !!!! So I asked for a amanager and lucky they reimbersed be after I explained that I was canceling becasue I was moveing away and could no longer aford the payments. Sorry this Happened to you Good luck with your contract hopefully you can get your money back -

Mourning the loss of food
laylasmojo replied to lizajane2000's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My doc had me start ten days before surgery and for those ten days I am only alound to have four low carb protien shakes and one bowl of lettuce with a few low carb veggies with lemon juice no corn Beans meat cheese or guacamole. I start this diet tomorrow and it kinda worries me but I am sure I will get through it. Only recently have I started getting abit nervious and started getting the what am I doing thoughts but I think that is totaly normal and then 30 seconds later I am super excited and cant wait to get it done, just a complete wirl wind of emotions!!! Well good luck on your revision just think you have that fact that this is not your first WLS and you know kinda what to expect. -
How many appointments was your Psych Eval
laylasmojo replied to mskissty's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had one apt. He asked me question about my life, support, surgery etc... for about 10 min then I had to take a 600 true false question test, a 20 question test on drug and alcohol history and two other small tests simmilar to the others then I went home. But really dont worry about the phych eval unless you think this is going to be a cure all and you hear voices that tell you to murder then you should be fine. -

Mourning the loss of food
laylasmojo replied to lizajane2000's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am almost in he same shoes you are I have one more day of normal food then I go to the 10 day liver reduction diet of 4 shakes and a bowl of lettuce with lemon juice on it which scares me more then the surgey it self but we can do it!!!!! We just have to remember why we are doing this. Oh and if it makes you feel better at least you get get away from the food you cant eat I am a chef so I am surounded with food for at least ten hours a day, I have allready warned my employees that I will prolly be grumpy for those ten days and I apologized in advance for my short temper -

Just had plication surgery and need urgent help with pain
laylasmojo replied to jg62's topic in Gastric Plication Surgery Forum
My thoughts are with you and your family . I wish for a speedy recovery for you. -
I so was just goimng to ask if you were taking a steroid and you answered my question. I absolutely agree that the steroid is the reason for the gain and the thyroid is the reason for the slow loss. Keep your chin up now that you are on the right meds the rest will come off. YOU WILL LOSE THAT DREADED @)!!!

Why does my old scar hurt?
laylasmojo replied to FatJuicyMouse's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Almost sounds like some sort of nerve damage, maybe something got hit or nicked and it is trying to heal or grow back. But I duno this is just a guess. You should ask about it the next time you go see your doc -
I know this is kinda off topic because I am not a biker(yet, I plan on getting a bike when I leave Las Vegas the city of way to many drunk and distracted drivers) but I am also having surgery on Oct 21st Yea!!! so we will be sleave sisters. well good luck and let us know how everything goes oh and I can't imagin it would be more then a few weeks before you can ride again.
