  1. Kat I'm so proud of you!! I'll have to go back and read up on your experience since I'm still making my decision. Sleeve isn't covered, so I'd have to go lapband. Don't let that nut get to you. Be proud and keep doing what your doing!

  14. Hell yeah I'd be angry.I agree with you, there must be a hormonal imbalance. Cortisone, thyroid hormones, and even electrolyte imbalances can slow weight loss. I'm an endocrinologist's dream.... I take pills to regulate almost all of ny hormones.... And for that reason I am afraid I will be in your boat too Start a thread to vent, and find others who may have overcome it. And totally see an endo.

  16. Jdmama911 congratulations on identifying your emotional issues. I'm guessing that's the hardest part. I quit smoking 4 years ago and was a maniac. I would cry, just cry over stuff. It was like PMS x 100. I remember telling my husband that I felt like my best friend had died. It was tough. But I got through it. Now I can't even believe that I ever smoked. The lozenges were my life saver. I slowly weaned off of them. When you are ready, you can do it!
  17. LouiseC thats a great point... Even if it's weird and uncomfortable. Lol
  18. Such wonderful things! I love it!

  21. Sorry Recycled and PDXMan, but many women just dress nice, to look nice in general... Unkowing that it is an attention grabber to creepers. Seriously, my husband told me a girl at work had come in during her off day in shorts abd he felt he needed to tell her not to do it again because it was distracting. Shorts?! I said. Good god, you can't have any skin out, or else! Sometimes I think I'm fat for the comfort of knowing I'm not getting any of that. For example, how would guys feel if we stared at your crotch to guess in your size? You wear pants that cut around it, so you must have asked for it?! Better wear an apron, or you're an attention seeker. Lol
  22. Sorry mobile is hard to type on...
  23. I've always wanted a Mini Cooper. BUT, I can't be a fatty and drive a tiny car! Even though there is room, it's the whole concept of it all. I want to get out of a Mini, and not twine everyone is staring at the girl who managed to shove herself inside. Lolol I know it's silly! But that's so.etching I'll look forward to.
  24. What are you looking forward to the most after your shed all the pounds? Share y
  25. I think Lindafromflorida has good advice. It's important to remember it's going to be an abrupt change... For life. However, I think it is great that it's an apple that your lamenting! It could be worse! Good call to notify your NUT.

  27. Thank you for sharing your journey! Any idea what brought on the nausea? I'm jealous about the IV for fluids. I could use that a lot and I haven't even had surgery yet! Lol
  28. I think of my goal weight as a million bucks. If I had a million, I think I'd be more disciplined with ny money and actually save more... Because now there's something to protect. Is hitting goal give that felling?
