i know that it's the best for me, because I'm tired of being tired all the time, my quality of life is worth any of the risks involved. Plus with a BMI in the 80's not doing it is a greater risk.

The pre-op diet is NOT a punishment ... it's an opportunity.
AngiD replied to Webchickadee's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Once I start the pre-op diet I will be able to have the protien shakes, but also fat-free broth does anyone have any sugestions as I have not ate just broth. -

AngiD replied to Webchickadee's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I can't say that I am looking forward to a 3 week pre op diet but I am more nervous about the surgery, I never had any type of surgery and have been in the hospital only once and that was last yr for the first time. It's takes everything I have not to chicken out, but I want to have a life instead of just existing and to be comfortable in my own skin for a change. -
Having munchies today, trying to drink lots of water and not eat unless hungury to learn better habits before surgery.

What role does the Scale play in your life?
AngiD replied to gamergirl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I want a scale but my weight fluctuates because of water retention, I don't stress about it. -
What role does the Scale play in your life?
AngiD replied to gamergirl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I don't own a scale, The only place I weigh is at the doctor's office. -
my first doctor wanted me to lose at minimum of 70 before he would consider doing the surgery, but I decided to switch to a closer doctor because I did not like that I live in Springfield mo and he was is St Louis mo, plus I just wasn't comfortable with him for lack of a better word. he was rather cold.

definitely
-
you will lose weight, your body is still healing and recovering. give it time and follow your doctors instructions and you'll lose.
-
when was your surgery?
-
from what my doctor said part is where you are carrying your weight, if the surgery can be done safely and also to see if we can handle the change.
-
My doctor wants me lose weight also, so far I have lost 31 pounds, but he did not give me certain amount to lose, going by my stomach thickness and wants me to cut out carbs. You can do it.

Newbie here, how did you all pay for surgery? Finance?

My biggest NVS will be never having to have that difficult talk with your manager because you have sweated or got an infection in your folds and someone complained about hygiene. -
