  1. I am 4ft 11in and weigh 187lbs. I have always worked out (spin, boot camp etc..). I eat healthy and not a big junk food eater. My problem is I have to eat very tiny portions to see any results. Does not even matter what the food is. If it's not a minuscule portion I will not loose anything. I had a trainer for a year and see a nutritionist once a month. I have done Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers etc...It all comes nack to my portion size. 1 cup of anything is too much for me so i have to weight and measure everything. It's been years of up and down and a struggle. Because of my height and weight I qualify for the surgery. The date is set for April 13th. DR. Wants me to loose about 50lbs. Anyone out there that has about the same to loose? I Feel uncomfortable sharing as people look at me thinking i don't need it. Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App

    Secret Surgery

    I can so relate to you. I am 4ft 11 1/2 in and weigh 187. I feel i have to justify to everyone why i want to do this. I am so sick and tired of everyone telling me i don't need this as i also carry my weight in the right places. A weight gain of 5lbs on me looks the same as a 15lb weight gain on a taller person. Tired of the yo yo. I am telling my job i am going on vacation. Taking 10 days off but it's more like 14 if u include the weekend. Surgery is April 13th.

  7. Wow...ok.This is so good to hear. Every thing i see and read almost everyone has 100 plus lbs to loose. What was your starting weight? Thanks for responding. I am very discplined with my eating and working out but as mentioned i have to extremely regimented to see any change and when i do it's so small. Tired of the yo yo. I definitely do not think this is the easy way out, i am using as a tool to help me do what i have been unable to do on my own. So when is your surgery?? Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App Hey there, I just had my 3rd nutrition class in Dec , so I'll be done in March with the classes, I've already had an EGD and a sleep study , no sleep apnea, my surgeon said I didn't have to get the colonoscopy, thank God! I have a support group meeting to attend and I have the papers for my psychiatrist to fill out I see her on Feb 1st, and I'm also done with the psychologist meetings until after surgery. Everything is getting done steadily crossing off every step. I have everything posted as they are in order to be done so it just seems that time flies by normally until you want to do something and then everything comes to a slow stand.

  8. Charles.angel....thanks for responding. I have felt so isolated with this. I do all the right things but the regiment of it is emotionally exhausted. Although i don't look obese i am over weight and no one understands how hard this has been. To be successful the calories have to be so restrictive.

  10. A friend went to Mexico (A lighter me) she had a great experience and no issues. However I would be too paranoid to do that just in case something goes wrong. Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App
