If you gain weight during your wait for surgery and weigh in's...will they tell you that you cant get the surgery? I hurt my back and couldnt work out....i had an MRI done and it showed a buldging disc. My cousin said she gained wieght while she was waiting and it wasnt a problem, my primary care doctor said it wasnt a problem either. Did anyone else gain while waiting?

Good for u...it will be great to seeu get to where u want to be!

I see....after surgery it will be imperative for norml body functions...thanks so much

Hey Everyone, Im just past the 2nd month of the 3 month process. All my tests have been done, just waiting for the doc to send my psych eval reports to the office. I tried taking in the reccomended amount of Protein but I am thinking it may not work for me. Can't and overdose of protein shut down your kidneys? Is this the part where you say, what works for one person doesnt work for other and you have to do what's best for you?? Have you found that the overdose of protein was counterproductive?

They dont understand the chemistry behind your body not letting go of the weight even with you dieting. If you have a medical problem, you go get it taken care of, that's what you are doing. They will be ok!

I agree, it's ok with some until it starts to work, then with some others it's immediatly a problem because you know long fill the role of the "fat friend' that makes them feel better about themselves. It's a hurtful reality to see that is the role we were in...

I shared the fact that I will be getting sleeved around January with my work lunch buddy and he stopped speaking to me. I am feeling your pain...

It kind of comes with the territory....the folks that are with you and love your flaws really have issues themselves. Sometimes you out grow people....sounds like you outgrew her....
