Sorry about the rant but......why are staff in doctors offices always look so stressed and angry? I don't get it. I called about a bill and the lady freaked. It's not like I was calling her for fun...I needed to ask a legit question....RELAX!!

Ugh that sucks. Is the staff always like that, or was it maybe just a bad day?

I guess I'm blessed because my doctor and his staff are amazing. They're always very warm and have been incredibly supportive of me during this journey. I don't think I'd have done nearly as well if they weren't so great.

No it was just this lady...terrible attitude. Although I work in the medical field and deal with others like that all the time. Lol

Heck I'd say something if she's still snarky next time you talk to her. Kill her with kindness: "I'm sorry you're having such a bad day, hopefully next time we speak you won't be so cranky" ;)

I manage a medical practice and I would want to know if any of our patients felt like they weren't being treated properly by the staff!

I'm not sure if this woman particularly works in the office because she just takes care of billing for this one nutritionist. It seemed like she more works for the hospital....I'm not going to lose any sleep....everyone is entitled to a crappy day once in a while. Lol

      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... :(
