  1. Hi Im Melissa 28 years old. I have been feeing kinda down lately about my weight, miscarriage just in general. Does anyone know of any good therapist or psychiatrist. I been looking for one but google reviews are not always reliable. Thanks Sincerely, Melissa FutureFitGirl
  2. @@Vinasu I gained about 50 pounds after my miscarriage as well. Before I had my miscarriage I was about 215. I was slowly but surely losing weight and after my miscarriage I gained weight and Im still having difficulty getting it off. However, I feel like waiting will only make things harder and more difficult health wise in the long run. FutureFitGirl
  3. Thank you guys. My struggle with weight has not just begun this has been a life long thing for me and even though I am only 28 I have experienced dieting and It hasn't worked for me especially in the long run. I usually end up gaining back double what I lost and yo yo dieting alot. I have heard from alot of people who have already done the surgery to get it done young. Especially if u want kids in the future because excess weight can mess with your fertility. FutureFitGirl
  4. Guys, My first weight loss surgery seminar is going to be on Jan. 10 2017. It's actually at the hospital I work for. I am Neonatal RN. I have been thinking about this surgery for a while now and come to find out the hospital I work for does it and covers it 100% for all employees if qualified of course. However, I am a little nervous and apprehensive. i just wanted to know what to expect and if you guys have any tips or suggestions. Also if you would like to share any experiences of your first weight loss seminar. Please feel free. Thanks. FutureFitGirl
