Confession Time



Recommended Posts

I think it's wonderful that you allowed yourself to have a cookie. I made Cookies with my 2 year old granddaughter the other day, and I had one too. I know that my weight loss might be a little slower if I have a bite of cheesecake one week and a cookie the next--but I just don't think an occasional small treat is going to dramatically affect weight loss when we are still eating well under 1000 calories a day. I've got a long way to go, and I want to know that I can enjoy some small pleasures along the way and keep moving toward the goal. Congratulations on your great weight loss!

I confess that I bought some delicious cupcakes for my daughters college signing ceremony. Then ate one ( it took a couple of days). Then I went back to order her graduation cake and my hubbys 40th birthday cake...and bought another cupcake. Most of it is still in my fridge. But it is sooo good! Funny, bc I've never been a sweets person!

I confess that I am happy with the weight loss I am experiencing. I love that my husband notices the little things, the little changes. The other day he told me he felt like he could play the piano on my ribs, and he finds every reason to give me a big hug where he wraps his arms tightly around my smaller body. I confess that I do not follow every sleeve rule as I should, but that whatever I am doing is really working for me. I confess that I am afraid of not losing all the weight like others have because I am a little bit stuck at this weight it seems. Just praying it will consistently fall off if I do more and more right over time.

Maybe I shouldn't post since I haven't actually had a VS yet but I am looking for a Dr and a way to pay for it. Either way I read all of yours and though I could use some confession.

I worry that I will die from this surgery leaving behind my two young kids when I don't have huge health problems at the moment.

I want to ask my Mom to clear out her retirement funds so I can have the surgery done. I know she would and I won't ask her but boy do I want to.

I'm extremely bored with my life right now. I play an online game, World of Warcraft for several hours a day. Sometimes more than 6. It's really the only place I have friends at the moment.

My confession of the day...I slept in until almost 11, got up, read about 80 pages of a novel, and have been playing WoW since. I'm an addict. :blushing:

I mainly play on Thrall (both Horde & Ally toons), but since I maxed out the number of toons I could have on that realm (I'm also an altoholic)....I started a night elf priest on Kael'Thas yesterday. :thumbup:

Had no idea there were so many of us! :lol0:

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
