    How to start losing before

    I have been eating better and moving more, however my portions are crazy. I don't eat bad food chocolate, sweets, icecream, and drink only Water. However as I stated my good foods are still big portions. I definitely need to tone it down especially since my last app is in 6 days and I need to lose 6 lbs! ☆Jeni☆

    This is just too much, I love it! I can sooo see this happening to me and my husband lhao! (Laughing his ass off) ???? This has nothing to do with WLS however...when I was a teen at a friends house she was mowing the yard and was being goofy, she turned n thought she farted (I didn't know at the time hehe) nope she ran as fast as she could bowlegged to the bathroom. It was hilarious and I was wondering what she was doing so I went in n she was in the shower, yep she shit herself. Damn, them snake turds just sneak up on ya lol!! Knocking on wood as I write this ☆Jeni☆

    6 or 7 months medically supervised diet?!

    I had a 6 month weight loss for my ins also. What the woman did was count the 1st meeting with the surgeon as my 1st visit then the next time my visit with the nut was the actual 1st weight one. So it equals 7 visits and 6 weights or months. It's crazy just jump through there hoops and let them approve you my last one is a week from tomorrow!! I'm so ready to get this new journey started lol I plan on bugging ins too ☆Jeni☆
  8. So I went home and apologized perfusly to the husband and he hugged me n said there was nothing to be sorry for. He wasn't mad and he knows I'm gonna be emotional, he is such an amazing man I am really blessed to have him. Couldn't stop apologizing though lol I felt so bad. Feeling so much better now though ???? a good cry n release does wonders ???? ☆Jeni☆
  9. @@KristenLe, yeah and with the husband as he did n I knew he would he said things too so maybe it will be better to just rip the stiches n let it out. Hell what we've been through it can only make things even more better. Thank you
  10. @Inner Surf Girl, no haven't done that yet but have started eating cleaner less chocolate sweets n bread trying to get ready for the pre-op.

  12. @@twinmom2015, no I just started this thing at 312.5 n right now I'm at 320. So I wanna get back down at least to where I was so there is no reason for ins to deny me. Just a personal preference. They did say if you gained you could be denied I just don't wanna try em ya know.
  13. I am tossing up sleeve vs bypass. My last app is the 25th, one week from tomorrow ???? can't wait. The 6 month wait is killer it actually went quick though, this past month has taken forever it seems. I have to lose 8lbs by then so I'm at least the same weight that I started off with. ☆Jeni☆

    GB or Sleeve

    @@KristenLe, I think she was just saying for people that are overweight from eating wrong. Of you read back you did say you would have to change your habits as we all would some need more deterrent than others. If you can do it with the sleeve and your not afraid at some point you will start choosing bigger portions or eating more bad stuff than good then by all means choose the sleeve. We are all trying to get help with our weight n there's plenty of ways to do it, many different ways for the different people. I don't think it was a bad thing by any means but I'm just me ☆Jeni☆

    @@CrissyCakes the dumping is a consequence of what your not suppose to be eating. To much sugar or even carbs n maybe fat I'm not 100% sure have read about it just not sure. If you don't eat that "bad" stuff you should be fine. As far as the sleeve I thought the same thing, you can eat all the stuff you used to just not as much supposing but I don't even wanna have that option as that's what git me where I am now, a bite here a bite there a lil this a lil that n well hello portions for 2 the bypass is more strict n thats what I know I need ☆Jeni☆

    @@CrissyCakes I have thought about it and I don't wanna be this way again, ever! I need the extra push to keep me on track like the dumping cause I hate to be sick, would rather give birth than be sick lol. I think this will definitely be the extra that I need.
