I would post it..i understand..its like when a thin person gains 20lbs..for others they would say what ur still skinny..but for that person 20 lbs is alot..

Jesser When are u getting sleeved? U are going to look fabulous.

Thank you :-) i am a big girl though if you see me in person lol..

U might look better than me after ur surgery.:-)not that you dont look beautiful now. i just want to compare the weight loss with different body types..we are all so different.

We sure do lol..i was approved in the states to have it done..my insurance has a exclusion thats why im going to Mexico.

Im 70 lbs overweight..and i started suffering from high blood pressure..my doc said i would have to lose at least 60..so that my highblood pressure can go away

Yes thats before..im 6 ft tall too..

Cant wait to see my after...lets share our before pics...CW 256 lbs...

Thank you prettynpink..i cant wait :-)

I paid 833 for two tickets boston to san diego for june 6. Through jet blue.

Thank you..i have so many questions... How long were u out of work?? How much weight have u lost so far? There were other posts i saw that a couple of ladies didnt feel that restrictive when they were drinking, that they took in more ounces than the dr said they cAn take in..do u feel that way to? How many leak tests do they perform??

Was anyone able to add all the costs of surgery while filing your tax returns in the states...even though the procedure was performed in Mexico?

Hello, so i booked my flight, downpayment made and schedules surgery june 6th..same day i am flying down.. I had the money so it took me 1 day to decide on this..whew now im wondering did i move too fast..i feel good about though...:-)

Hello everyone. :-) my job has a total exclusion..so i am a self pay...13200...but they will remove my gall bladder because i have gall stones..my insurance should def pay for that,.i really hope i can get some of that cash back...anyone had this happen???

Thank you...i remember when i was 17 i weighed 215...i dont even know the feeling of being less than 200...i have my appt with the psychologist tomm to evaluate me and when the receptionist asked me why i would like to seen and i said bariatric surgery she said ( in a very loud voice) noooo u dont need that..then everyone else had to chime in. I guess some dont get it...but when i stand next to my 5"11 sister who weight around 150 i can really see how big i am.
