    My weight loss journey

  5. Hey! Congratulations on your decision!! One of my close friends had RNY and she lost 165 pounds and has been maintaining for 3 years now. She feels amazing! She lost 100 pounds in the first 6 months- it was amazing!! Do you have a surgery date?

     

    I'm doing well. Got a bit of a cold right now, but hopefully it will pass soon! Just started training for a 5K last week. I'm signed up to run my first one on May 8th! Super excited and scared at the same time!

     

    I've lost 40 total since starting my pre-op diet. 82-ish since starting my 6 month supervised and 107 from my top weight. I'm losing around 2 pounds a week which is what I want to try to stick around so I have time to tighten up my skin as much as possible!

     

    Can't wait to hear about your chosen journey!! I'm so happy for you!

  6. I just read your reply to me. I have found that secondary insurance. IF you are on Medicare you can check with Medigap and find one to. I didn't know you were having problems paying for your surgery also. Maybe this will help. I hope so.. I am going to have the RYN gastric bypass. I think its a better choice for me because I am so big.. What are you having ? I can't remember if you said or not.. Not a real smart cookie here..lol..... I sure hope you find what you need out there. Just keep looking and you will.. Have you dropped anymore weight.. I haven't .. I have been on a diet .. I lost 18 pounds and now I can't stick to it.. How in the hell am I going to stick to this other if I can't even stick to a diet now.. I am just so discouraged right now... Sorry, don't listen to my ramblings. Hope to hear from you really soon... God Bless all...

  7. Hi, How are you doing ? I hope everything is still going great for you. Hoe are you feeling ? How much weight have you dropped ? I won't keep you but I would really love to hear from you soon. God Bless you and your family..

  10. HI, I don't know why but I have lost my will power to diet. I have been on my diet about a month or so and all of a sudden , I have no will power. I want to eat everything in the house. If I can't do it now, how in the world am I going to do it when I have my lap-band® surgery or before my surgery.. If any one has any suggestions please let me know... Thanks everyone....:sad:
  11. My Message on the first one was suppose to say Medicare.. I need to find an insurance that will pay the other 20% of my medicare because my doctor has to have it up front before the surgery. If anyone knows a secondary insurance I can look into please let me know.. Thank you ......
  12. I live in Russellville, Arkansas . If anyone out there knows a secondary insurance that I can take out to pay the remaining 20% that Medicare doesn't pay Please let me know so I can check into it.. I have to find an insurance that will help because I can't come up with the remainder of the bill and my doctor has to have it before surgery.. If any one has any ideas... PLEASE let me know.. Thank you very much.
  13. Hey girl, How's it going ? Not to good for me. My medicare will only pay 80% of my surgery. I can addord the 55 for the phyc. but I can't afford the 1,100.oo for the rest of the surgery. I put a new blog asking anyone if they might know of a secondary Insurance to pay the other 20% of my surgery in Arkansas. I hope I get lots of answers. Are you still doing ok ? How long have you had your surgery now ? I am so glad for you . I sure hope I can find a 2nd insurance for me. Well I have moaned enough about my troubles. Are you doing everything now that you did before surgery or all you still sore ? If I could ever lost this weight I would have a knee replacement and then go dancing.. I love to dance but I am just to big to do it and my knee is shot ... Here I go complaining again. How many children do you have ? I have 3. Twin boys-32 and a daughter 36. I also have 2 beautiful grandkids . 1boy--1girl... they are 8 now... D--n I am getting old..lol...I will talk to you again soon.
