    A few other questions:

    Is it worth it/ do you regret it?

    Do you feel like your life is normal?

    Can you do it with 50/50 support from those around you?

    Do you have to lose weight first?

    Is the loose skin as bad as people make it out to be?

    Hair loss?

    Tips?

    ~Thank you all for your love and support!!!

    Also how do I update my profile? CW, surgery date, type, etc.?

    WOW ..... First of all welcome and there are a bunch of us here that had the same issues you do!

    1. Is it worth it? This is really a stupid question but i will answer it .... You need to read my history of posts because every question you have here I have answered 20 times already! You have two options,

    a. Stay the way you are addicted to food and on a direct path to disease that will make you miserable and you will end up dead shortly. You have a addiction like everyone on this site and it will kill you!

    B. Put on your big girl panties get the surgery which is only a tool and get you life back, You are huge right now and i will tell you if you use this tool properly it will save you life!

    NOBODY HERE REGRETS SAVING THERE LIFE AND GETTING HEALTHY! NO REGRETS

    2. is life normal? There is no normal! Yes my life is better I can actually breath move and do things i never could do when i was fat, unhealthy, overweight and getting ready for the URN!

    3. Support Group? F@#ck your support group. This is you decision and you have to do it, Poeple will help you and you have all the support you need right here! But WTF are you already looking for others to carry you when this is your problem, reach deep and be ice queen and get this done. Any support you get will be a benifit but you have to have the mind set to do this! Just do it!

    4. Lose weight first? Depends on how you are paying. I payed cash so i did not have to lose anything just sign the papers and 7 days later was under the knife! But some insurances i have seen run you thru the ringer first. You are already reaching for excuses to not do it. Not a good sign

    5. skin? Really you are worried about skin, So you have some lose skin...... Beats carrying 240 plus pounds on you heart and body that will kill you! For me as a male was not a issues. and BTW loose 300 pounds and then go in for the Mommy makeover sugery. Once again you are lookin for a out to not be healthy!

    6. hair lose? Not really a issue and it does end so no long term issue.

    Ok now that you know me i am a straight shooter that will tell it like it is! Do not take it personally just the facts. What i see from your post is someone who is making every excuse and reason to not get healthy. this tool will save your life bottom line and everyone here will help you do it. Read this site and look at how many people have saved there own lifes and become healthy.

    Including me@

    For the first few months I just snacked- Not into timers and small plates and weighing stuff. I took the snacking grazing method. For example my go to food was popcorn shrimp. So i would cook out about 7 oz and put them in a bowl under a heat lamp. then I would just grab a few while doing other stuff and by the time you know it they are gone. I still to this day do not sit down and eat a meal, My kids do and i stand near by but find it much easier to eat very very slowly throughout the day

    One of my female friends is a doc here. She had a great Idea

    Now under these conditions Slow down, Think before you act, Make sense take you time clean your area and slow down, Dont just re act like you have in the past since most of your work is second nature to you.

    Now you have a problem ..... Do not push the alarm button every time someone walks in your bank with a mask!

    AJ, what is your business? I bet you would be a fun boss!

    I own a Home Service Company in Naples Florida. Home of the mega Mansions, I inspect new sales of homes, and then maintain them while they are away. These are mega rich people with a 10 million dollar average cost of there home, a million in cars in the garages, and the yacht out back. I take care of the estates while they are off at there many other homes. Fun job

    Like i say all the time! If Peter pan was flying around Naples Florida it would not suprise me! Seen it all with this mega rich people. Ever see a 5500 dollar ice sculpture of a x mas tree for a party? I ordered it.

    So to make along story short there is some sort of Virus out there and My company is totally shut down, making light of it but i have always lived by three principals.

    1. Carpie Diem

    2. Work Hard - Play Harder - Stay Ha#$

    3. Do not do anything unethical, immortal, or illegal. Now the immoral thing i go by my rules!

    4. You can always make more! Never let money drive your life!

    So with all this bully poop virus things all my staff is at home, PANICKING! no clue why since i fur lowed them all to unemployment, and have told them this is my ship and we are going down together! They all have prepaid debit cards that will be filled with there payroll till this ends! So i have a gut feeling #4 is going to come and bite me in the rear end. But these are good people and they have been with me along time - Heck i have 31 kids on my payroll from there parents. No way i am running like a Bit#$ for the woods! We go down together.

    But I drink and this is a issue especially with these times. So i had to focus on something else besides this place and talking about how you all are hungry, I weigh myself to much, and farting and gas issues.

    For 11 years ago my x wife decorated the offices and picked the furniture - Never liked it to start so i am going ape poopy crazy! Just tossed everyone's desk except mine, Have painters in here painting and doing cool air brushing, ordered new furniture from the Amazon God and doing some way out wack stuff! Luck i have a great decorator named Miss Google images so duplicating it. Always hated the lighting so ripping every Freakin light out of here and going led cool white! Nice thing is most of the computers scanners and printers are at my staffs house. Hired my landscaper to rip out the sticks and **** grass and make it look fun and good. Even have a window guy coming to put new blinds up. Just to mess with them all i moved them around to new offices - Only i am in the same office. Added digital frames of there families pics, which i have from all the years of bday and parties. Plus my son is a software engineer and just raped social media.

    so out with the old and in with the new! You can stay busy during this and be productive. FYI for those of you who know WInston my WLS mentor he is getting a custom built bed off a wall below the window. So find something to do that makes you feel satisfied. Not food

    Just havin fun and you all stay safe and ride this out

    As the only Male I agree - Shape up Mr or i see you on your way to the curb! But i do hope you can fix his attitude and Gosh Darn Ladies there are some tough Females on this site!

    This is why I am single I suck as a husband and suck as a monogamous relationship partner, Funny thing is know it! so i just don't want to hurt anyone so i stay clear of it!

    Maybe a brutally honest in your face conversation, while he chokes down a Big Mac to start!

    DO NOT WASTE TO MUCH TIME, YOU GOT THIS AND YOU ARE DOING THIS FOR YOU AND YOUR CHILD!

    Weighing is irrelevant! THIS IS A JOURNEY TO GET HEALTHY - PLUS MOST OF us go bat poop crazy when they do not lose a pound this week or 4 one week!

    I just weighed myself today last day of a month i weigh in! Yes I am pissed off I lost 11 more pounds this month! I knew i was lossing i was trying as hard as i could to hold but this sucks!

    You got this Perfect plan above! Do what you want Nobody is forcing you to soft foods! I barely eat and live on what you have above to this day. But there are great soft foods you can eat - eggs, tuna salad, egg salads, shrimp, oysters, lobster or crab cold salads. Very low in calories
