I've been told that gastric bypass is the best one to lose a lot of weight on.

Hi just found out I have berrigs esophogus. Does anybody else have this??

That's great your weight loss!! How was your pain after surgery??

The waiting period here in New Hampshire is 6-9 months. They usually try and get some of your health problems a little better before surgery. My highest weight was 450 I'm now at 403 they want me down to 378 before surgery. Its hard, but it will be worth it after we have surgery.have a great day.Stacy .

Good luck!! The nuclear stress test is scairy but its over and done with in a few minutes.

Is this normal after surgery?? I hope you feel better. Have a good night

I feel the same way, I wish you all the luck in the world. One day you will look back on this and say why was I so scaird. Keep in touch.

Is that normal?? How's the pain?? I'm real curious lol.

Wow that's not good at all, I'm so sorry to hear this. Ask for a hearing at your insurance company. That's what I would do. Good luck and keep in touch.

You meet really rude people along the way. I can't understand why parents allow there children to be rude. When children are rude I don't blame them I just stare at their parents. I heard even from my parents for years oh u have to loose weight. Even when I was in the hospital sick my mom says to me oh stacy you have to lose weight, I had a bad infection. I didn't get it.

Prillywilly its one of the hardest decisions I've ever had to make. I asked myself do I want to be around in 20+ years or not?? Its a adventure and can be scairy too. The people here are very helpful. Keep in touch and good luck. Stacy

Future super nurse that's great how are you doing???

Wow your doing great!!! I started at 450 I'm 403 right now. Another 20 before surgery. I'm having gastric bypass. Keep up the good work!!!!

Thank you!!

What is mini gastric bypass? And think about it if you could do it on your own would you be as big as you are?? I think that way too. Good luck!!

Thank you to both of you. I'm doing my best!!!

Mkjohnson you just have to believe you can do it!! I look at my weight now 403 and its hard to picture myself at 165, but I believe I can do it!!! Good luck to you!!!

Hi I'm new to this chat room too. I've already done my classes, lost 23 pounds another 22 to go. I'm working on exercising more its hard. So is the giving up on sodas. I'm gradually giving them up. I think my surgery should be in April maybe, no set date yet. I wish you luck on your journey. Take care and keep in touch.
