I had a 6 hour long procedure on my ear in July this year that was out patient I have to have scar tissue removed from that same ear next week Tuesday which will also be out patient

@@Runner1 congratulations on surgery tomorrow keep us posted on how your doing

@@VLeigh I'm not brand new to this process but slightly new I have my second of 6 nutritional appointments next week the day after an unrelated surgery. And I've lost 8 pounds so far from my highest weight. Just by cutting out soda and cooking at home 1 meal a day. I would love to chat with you one on one since our surgery's are so close

When I had surgery on my left ear my wedding ring would not come off they said if it was an issue they would have to cut it off. I just had it cut off at pt first last week due to an up comming surgery also the ring was causing problems and my finger was infected

I will be almost 25 when I have the gastric sleeve so I'm looking forward to the latter half of my 20s to be better then the early 20s

Thanks

I got weighed at my pcps office and the scale said 280 I was so happy I know its high but I'm down 8 pounds in 8 weeks

Yay but remember different scales at different places will say different things

I use a nutra ninja and blend with ice stays cold for a while

I'm on the 6 months diet required by insurance and with my Dr upping my dose of metformin and following the nuts plan I've lost 8 pounds in 7 weeks

I went and got a degree in massage therapy and because of my weight and health issues I can't do anything with it Right now. I would love to get use out of my 13000 education and I will once I lose the weight and do more pt for my back

I hate shopping not as a fat person but as a short person I've never had an issue finding clothes I like for my fatness just my height why do they assume all fat people are tall. Although shout out to target they have a pants size called short fits perfectly but no pockets lol

I need some advice in this arena I've had a few great aunts and a few aunts get cancer one of which was breast cancer and my father's sister had uterin cancer I'm 24 what would be a good age to start mammograms

Call and ask if they have a bariatric coridinator
