    monki reacted to lash44 in 2 Years 7 Months - Moving Forward   
    This is the results of my recent blood test. Diabetes gone, bad cholesterol disappeared, high blood pressure moved out, sleep apnea departed, hypertension not here, gout vanished, prostate problems divorce me. Down a from 52 inch gut to a nice 38, was 305 heavy on the scale to 185 lbs. Not bad for a 62 year old dude. Looking forward and wishing well.
    Thanks VST.com for the continuous support.

    monki got a reaction from GlendaLee in First 5K   
    This past weekend I did my first 5K run/walk. i I NEVER thought I would EVER get this body to jog. December 11 will mark my 9 month anniversary from surgery and I am down 82 pounds. The best part about the 5K was a group of friends cheering me on at the finish line.

    monki got a reaction from scarletskinnygirlinside in Week 5- So Depressing / Disgusting To Eat   
    Most drs will tell you not to stop taking anti-depressants cold turkey. You are suppose to stop taking them gradually. Not only is your body adjusting to the new sleeve, but your body is also adjusting to you not taking those meds. I suggest you make an appointment with you dr and discuss this with him. Your body is going thru a lot of changes right now.

    monki got a reaction from MGM in Louisiana Sleevers??!   
    We pray you don't have any complications. He is probably jealous. I have had several people tell me that their spouse was against their surgeries at first because they were afraid they would be left (divorced) once all the weight was gone. He probably just needs reassurance from you that you love him. See if you can talk to him about that. After months of my hubby grumbling, I told him i respected his feelings but this was something I was doing for me and my health. And that I loved him no matter what my size. Maybe you should start, if not already doing it, a date night. Go play mini golf, go to an arcade, do something fun. And continue your date nights after you recover from ur surgery. But mainly, reassure him of your love. I'll be praying for you! Where will you be having your surgery? Let us know when.
