  1. When my doctor put "obesity" in my medical chart i had been trying to lose the same 40 lbs for years to no avail last year i.did hcg lost seven lbs gained 2back. I did it early at a low bmi but i was already pre diabetic, sleep apnea, back pain, sleep issues already starting to develop life threating issues from it if i would have waited id easily kept gaining and be a diabetic..
  2. I took my leftover surgery pain killers superdol it works great
  3. We all take our path things dont always work out in the order they should for.me it was single mom college another kid college marriage college two more kids graduate kid now i have my business and am truly happy. Honestly i thing god puts us through these trials so that we can appreciate the true things that come from it. You can handle anything that you put your mind too and although we make mistakes along the way you just gotta keep trying and though your parents might be upset with you they will likely come around thats what unconditional love is. You will know this when you meet your baby its an amazing kind of love that is overwhelming.
  4. You are quite the beauty. Children are a true blessing you will likely lose the weight fairly quickly especially if you chose to breastfeed. So sorry that you have gone through all this turmoil but i hope your are stonger and more confident having weathered the storm.
  5. I have to say i.had this surgery the minute my doc labeled me obese at 30 ish bmi my bmi was 33.5 ish on surgery day i was 159.9 i am 4'9.5 i have lost slow compared to everyone else but i have lost 27 ish lbs and am 132.6 today i have 13 lbs to a healthy weight i am three months out by the weeks if you go months it will be 6-14 everyones journey is dfferent but i am so happy and pleased! I tryed everything out there including starving myself with hcg i lost 7 lbs and gained 21 back. This tool is amazing
  6. I kept telling my husband i was sorry but i needed this he told.me if i needed the surgery i needed it. I definately felt guilty however now 2.5 months later i am thankful and love my husband even more for not making me feel even worse...you are not alone
  7. For me dr alvarez stuck out because i am four hours away here in texas and if i went to the other mexican docs i would have to travel by plane here i could get in my car and drive four hours and be there if i.had an issue. He is more expensive but was a good fit for me. Ive seen many others on the board reccomend other very qualified surgeons it is just a matter of your personal preference and what doc seems best for your needs.
  8. I ten weeks 700/900 calories a day Focused on 60 protien and lower carbs
