So any input you have for us doctors would be helpful. Prices and how londg it took from start till surgery with self pay.

It's none of her business where you spend the money. SHE said you have to promise ME, the BANK didn't say you have to promise any such thing. Huh, promise??? A personal loan, is a personal loan. What you do with it is YOUR business.

Umm...legally, she can't do that. I work at a bank, and I'd be fired if I ever told someone they couldn't do something with their own money! My goodness! That's unethical!

I understand that she can't say that really but we live in a small town and she could easly just say no. so any input on us doctors would be helpful.

That's just unbelievable! Who does she think she is?? Is this the loan officer, bank president, what? Either way it doesn't matter. If it's a personal loan, that's just what it is "personal" they have no right to ask you what you will be doing with the money. You just need to qualify for the loan. Tell her the only thing you're going to promise is to spend the money wisely investing in your healthy future. No, really it's none of her business! This makes me so mad people who bully others and that's just what she is - a bully.

"Specials" make me shudder. In any event, I suggest you open a new thread and ask that question. . Having said that, please don't pick someone based on price or the opinion of strangers on this website alone. Research, research , research. Best of luck!

      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... :(
