I know how you feel. I've given up hope today. I don't have insurance and am self pay. So long story short, I got denied credit and have no hope. I feel like I

Dying inside and it hurts badly. I really thought family would help me but nobody has good enough credit, trust me, I've tried. I don't have much money saved because I am the only person working in my household. This just really really sucks!

My insurance doesn't cover it. So I am off to Mexico. I am scheduled for July because I have to save the money for it. It seems really far away but it will come soon and I am working my A$$ off to save it. Lol.

It's a life changing operation. And I know all this suffering and working extra hours and being super extra poor for a few months will be sooo worth it when the date gets here.

I heard that some drs. Down there have payment options and maybe in the states as well but in mexico like dr. Kelly has some type of in house financing and dr Almanza ( the one I am going to) has layaway. Lol. I thought that one was funny when I first heard it but hey it's working for me.

Anyways keep trying and I am sure u will find something that works for u. :-)

      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.

      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! 😞
