    Revision Surgery

    That's what I want to do! Dr approved me for it just called insurance today they didn't approve me! Saudi will get a letter explains why! I am really disappointed ! I've lost 130 lbs have another 100 to go why would they not approve me! My weight loss has stopped at plateau for 8 months! How about you?

    Chili

    Make your own less sodium & fat . I use ground sirloin for mine fry it up drain any fat off then pat with paper towel to get any more fat off! I have also used ground turkey or chicken and have done the same procedure. In beginning could eat 1/4 c now 1/2 cup is good! Enjoy it!

    I need a hug

    It's ok to feel sorry for yourself! You've been through a lot! Look at all the changes in your body since surgery ! It takes time for your body Ito adjust to 1/2 your stomach being gone! Any way you look at it the body is in shock! Stalls happen! We have all had them! It also takes time for head to adjust to this new way of living! Look what your eating now compared to a year ago! Even though you feel tired & wonder what the hell did I do you know you are going to be so much better off in the near future! Hang in there eat your protein and drink the fluids! You will be surprised one day when you get on the scale. & you've dropped 5 lbs! Don't weigh every day either! Once a week is enough! Your loosing inches also! Be sure and measure yourself if you have not done so all ready and then measure monthly! You'll be amazed at the inches you loose!!!
