Recommended Posts

I've yet to meet any. I'm just saying. Lol. And it's not like I'm not out and about either.

I can understand. Meeting the right person isn't easy from either side of the aisle.

It was a good thing. Think masculine, sexy, good on a guitar and good with animals.

I live in houston <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> yea I totally understand I've struggled with dating since getting to goal as well

Houston here too, just sleeved 8/20. I thought being in a relationship on top of all this would be too much. Want to focus on the weight loss but with weddings, family events, holidays on there way I'm dreading the when are you going to settle down questions. I feel like single and 32 is just not ok for some peeps. I still feel so young still.

My family stopped asking those questions when I told them I would settle down when I stop traveling and I have no plans to stop any time soon.

I've traveled all over the USA and a couple different countries! but I still have many places to see!

I live in California. I'm debating on Italy, Australia and Fiji next year... So for sure one of them it's just going to depend but Australia may win because I have friends in Melbourne and Brisbane so no hotel cost! But I do want to go back to Greece and conquer the 3 mile incline of steps! I only made it half way last time.

Where do you want to go?

If you decide on Italy, and you are interested in going on a tour to Tuscany and Umbria, let me know. A group of us are going July 19th for about 12 days. It's a really diverse group — so far, there are two straight couples, one gay couple, and three straight single girls. Most of the group doesn't know each other. We just started putting the trip together two days ago, so I'm sure we will have several more folks join us. You can reserve a place for $300, but the balance doesn't have to be paid until mid-May. If its something that you're the least bit interested in, just let me know, and I'll send you the website to check out.

I've spent a lot of time in Europe, but I'm really excited about being there in a completely different body. I hope I'm at a point where the walking and steps don't bother me like they have in the past.

Still no luck? Why do you think you're still single?

For me, it's partly by choice. I turn down a lot if dates due to my schedule. I think I'm ready to get back out there. Now though! I've noticed that as the weight comes off, the happier and more confident I am. I seem to draw people to me now instead of pushing them away.

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      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.
