    PayItForward got a reaction from Bits in Topamax- week one review   
    I read the OP's earlier posts just now. It appears that she has not had WLS and is not trying to get WLS. She is trying to lose enough weight to get a Tummy Tuck.< /p>
    Thought that might clear up some of the confusion.

    Just don't get into a committed relationship. Finish divorcing your husband and let your current partner know that you will not be having an exclusive relationship with them.
    I don't understand people who can't commit. But, it's even harder to understand why people that can't really commit start "exclusive" relationship or get married repeatedly.
    Just be honest.

    Your boyfriend didn't have surgery. You did. You can only control yourself. He has no reason to change just because you decided to change. Do what is best for you and let him do his thing.

    PayItForward got a reaction from BloomSeason in Calorie intake so low now... What will happen when can eat real stuff?   
    I recommend that you try Premier Protein shakes. They have 30 grams of Protein, 160 calories, and only 1 gram of sugar. I drink one a day. It's a great way to supplement my protein for the day. They have more protein and few calories than any other shake I've seen.

    @@VeroN86
    Glad to hear that you are getting used to the cpap machine. I've had one for years. I hated the thing so much as first but loved how much better it made me feel. I can't sleep without it now.
    You definitely won't be wearing it during surgery but be sure to bring it to the hospital. You will want to use it after the surgery.

    PayItForward reacted to Djmohr in TV Series - Paid Teen Bariatric Surgery   
    I have not seen any teens on this site for the most part. I do have mixed feelings about this but mostly I would support it. Honestly so many folks that are obese and super obese have been suffering since they were young children and the child obesity rate continues to soar.
    I say this all the time, if I could have done this when I was young I certainly would not have all this damage to my body. I had surgery at 51 and wish I would have done it in my early 20's. I just didn't know enough and honestly did not realize the sheer damage one can do.
    For me, my spine is a complete disaster. I have had to have 6 spine surgeries and I am permanently disabled. I have also had to have shoulder surgery for the same reason. Osteo arthritis. Too much wear and tear on my joints. Not not mention that being younger might help with things like excess skin and building longer term good habits at a much younger age.
    While I do understand the issue about exploiting children, the damage to them from everything that results with child obesity might be even worse.
    If a documentary show helps even a small number of children make better life decisions then honestly I am for it.
    I do understand that this might not be popular with others on this site but so be it. My opinion comes from my personal experiences and I think that something like this would have educated me at a much younger age. I will say that I was overweight in my teens and became obese in my early 20's.
    Had I been obese as a child it would have been absolutely devastating and my head would have been more messed up than what it was.
    This is just my opinion.......

    That is crazy. It is much safer than your statistic. I would never have had optional surgery willingly that killed one out of every 50.
