I've been reading in here about care credit. Apparently they loan for medical costs with no interest if pain in 10 mos.

I guess I don't need to worry, My Dr does not accept carecredit, I do not know why, but they said they never turned anyone down for $ so I think they have a payment plan themselves. I have my next appt july 11, so that will be my official start of my 3 mo medically supervised diet plan, I guess I will know more then , I just did not want to get excited and find out its wayyyy more than what I can afford. I live alone, and its on all me. 3 months is 6 paychecks, 8 at most, not much time to prepare-

If you have a 401K you can borrow against it and it is a loan but you are paying yourself back

I am in only 4 yrs gs-7 and long story short, death of my son etc etc no extra money. Just starting to rebuid back my life so getting this surgery would be amazing. To get my body back in shape to do things again, feel better, and look better be like a new me. Been through the fire and came out as pure gold-- but gold is heavy isnt it? I think even if I have to take a P/T job after, be worth it.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
