Recommended Posts

SN..............Starting Wt........Current.......Goal.......Lbs to Goal

Coops.........238..................... 179..............165............ 14

I am being really conservative this time...this new date will be close to my next appointment with the surgeon... and he wants me to be at goal...?? which is a 25lb loss. But based on my last figures, I am not sure that I can realisically do 25lb!

If I get lucky I can alter the goal weight along the way...eh?

OH...anyone know how to get two ticker on here... I can't seem to do it properly...grrrt!!!

What sort of issues are you having? You should be able to have 2 tickers at once.

I just survived the Easter Challenge and made my goal of 165. I have my 30th High School Class reunion on July 30 so my goal was to be 150 by then. So I will just put this as my goal for the 4th of July. This is pretty close to what I weighed when I was in high school.

This will be my first challenge. Since I am not being sleeved until next week, I didn't want to go overboard with a goal. July 4th will be 8 weeks post-op

OK, honest opinion, am I aiming too low?

I've averaged my weight loss on the last challenge out, and multiplied that over the 11 weeks left of this one, and think I should aim for 16lb, but everyone else seems to be blowing me out of the Water with their goals! Am I being too cautious?

Well, my provisional Goal;

SKCUNNINGHAM..............253........208.......175.......33pounds

For those of you who saw my post today about being in ONDERLAND for easter - that is with my home scales - which weigh 10 pounds less than my doctor scales.< /strong>

Good luck on the challenges!

My weight loss has been slowing down recently. I believe I know why... but, just in case it's just starting to be slow, I'm not going to shot for AS high as number as the Easter challenge... (35 lbs , which I lost 32 of!) I can always up it if need be!

MRSKOUBiK..............317........220.......195.......25

WHEW! Did I really type that number? with just THAT much space between it? I can't remember EVER EVER being that tiny.

      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!
