Sorry you are having such a rough time of it Mindi. Hope you feel better soon ! Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

Yes I'm so excited!! I never considered a neurologist. Thank you. My dr keeps chalking it up to my stress levels and high blood pressure. Which could be it but I think I'm going to look into that. My mother in law had surgery on her knees. Pretty swift recovery now a days with the new technology. And it doesn't hurt that he's a pretty boy!! Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

Just stick to your guns! You know what's best for you. Never feel guilty for making healthy changes in your life. I'm doing well. Just waiting for surgery on Jan 17. I'm very excited. I'm planning on moving home to Cali in the summer, hopefully if I save enough money. I hate it here in Nebraska and I'm so isolated. Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

@@laurak814 How is everything going? Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

Thanks! You should be fine. I think the insurance just wanted to be sure my co morbidity was " bad" enough to need the surgery. Even with weight loss on my own and medication adjustments my blood pressure and headaches to this day are out of control. Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

I'm so flippen screwed! I have to gain weight or I'll never get this surgery. I know it sounds sooooo stupid. I know. But I weighed myself this evening. I've dropped another 5 pounds. Not on purpose. I swear I've never dropped weight like this in my life. It's just all this stress. I know eventually it will come back. I'm a month away from surgery. I can't let this stress beat me. I can hardly eat though. I need to put on some weight. My surgeons nurse is concerned that my final weight before surgery will cause the insurance company to not pay for the surgery. So she told me to put on some weight before my pre op diet. Does that mean they cancel it right then and there or they bill me after its done? My NUT told me at my last appointment that my weight that day would be the last time the insurance looked at it. I'm desperate! Please advise! Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

This is a *brilliant* idea! My surgery will be in 2017 -- PLEASE keep posting this calendar each month to facilitate surgery buddies for future months too? (And congrats to all the December folks!) Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App I agree. Terrific idea. Please keep it going for future months! Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

Im so sorry you are going through that. That's such a chicken shit way to leave. Even though I left my husband it still hurts like hell because I still very much love him. But my safety and sanity was at risk. The day i left him i cut off all contact. Maybe some things that help me will help you. First off, I'm alone. No friends, no job, no family. So that really sucks. I'm in a new state and feel pretty isolated. So I sit with my thoughts all day. I have positive affirmations on post it notes stuck on my bathroom mirror. I say them out loud as many times as I need to every day. I try and stay busy in my house and focus on things that make me happy. But you have to be careful that you are not just stuffing your feeling. You have to allow yourself to feel it and walk through it. One of my affirmations are. I will feel grief but I will not wallow in it. I got a puppy. He is a great distraction. On days that I just can't breathe I tell myself, one day all this hurt will be gone and I will feel normal again. I read everything about toxic relationships that I can get my hands on and I pray ALOT! One day at a time and when that seems too much just one hour at a time.

That is my surgery date too! TWINS ???? Please don't back out because of him. You have to do this for you. I promise, there are so many things I didn't do because of my husband and I kick myself every day because of it. I lost every friend I had. I allowed him to push my sister away. He controlled everything and everyone in my life. And one day I woke up and said no more. I'm stronger than this. You owe this to yourself. It's the beginning of your new life!

Oh I am in no way shape or form interested in dating at all!! My marriage messed my head up pretty bad. I was controlled and abused. I completely lost myself. The constant chaos became normal to me. I'm damaged goods and will be for a very long time. My focus is healing all that is broken in me as well as my son. That in itself is going to take a whole lot of work and self discovering. I'm starting with...what inside of me (consciously or subconsciously) thinks I deserve the type of treatment. I'm finding that answer goes pretty deep. And needs professional help and time.

I think it was @@southbound who was referencing it, but I looked it up and posted what I found just a minute or two ago. I guess I'm a confused mess! LOL. Thank you! It can get confusing once the thread gets going. Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

Oh yea we have big lots here too. That's a way better price. Thank you! Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

Man, that sucks. I hope it gets better for you. I have heard people on here say it's totally normal and the severity is different for each person. I hope I'm lucky and avoid it, but I doubt it. Just keep telling yourself it is only temporary and soon you will be back to yourself! Best of luck! Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

Not embarrassing...that's why we are all here...Chin up sweetie. You're on the right track. The co morbidity thing does not apply to you. Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App

I would definitely ask her if something is wrong. Maybe it's just her own insecurities. She might be thinking you're getting your sexy back ???? and she might loose you. You just never know what's going through someone's heart. Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App
