  22. So this past weekend my husband and I went to an event in Carlisle Pennsylvania. It was at a fairground. A HUGE one! I walked from one end to the other for 3 days. I drank lotsa water and fluids, I ate half the portions of food I usually do because I wasn't hungry. And yet, I get on the scale....and still at 300. W.T.F?!?!?! I am so frustrated I wanna cry!

  25. I am so sorry Alicia. *hugs* I hope you get it figured out soon. Maybe its time to get mean

  27. So far, I am down to 300. I have even been down to 298. But because I have been going through some things health wise. Alot of the medications they have put me on, have hindered my weightloss goal. Blegh! It sucks honestly!
  28. Dr. Maher wants me to get to 285 I started at 311. Thats ALLLLLLLLLOOOTTTT of weight to lose. He suggested weight watchers. So I guess I am going to have to suck it up and do it that way. Ugh! I dunno. I really really want this surgery. And I know I need to do this. But sometimes its hard to get over the hump of food. Know what I mean?

  30. I too am at VCU, and excited, because everyone has been so nice, and informative. No matter how many times you call and ask questions, they never make you feel like a bother. Good luck to all that are undergoing the surgery soon. If only I could lose the weight I need to. Its so frustrating! Have a great day everyone!
  31. I am calling VCU Weightloss Surgery Center tomorrow. I am so frustrated about trying to lose this weight. I have probably lost the same 20 pounds over and over. I have been sick with one thing or another and so its hindering my weightloss. I wish everyone the best of luck on thier surgeries, and on thier adventures in getting to the surgery date! <3
