I just read some of these post. I don't blame you one but rollargirl. A Bmi of 30 - 39.9 indicates moderate obesity. Do what is best for you and what is healthier for you and don't let nobody get you down.

No judgement here, and God knows I am no doctor, but I have sat through a ton of seminars before deciding on this surgery and the doctors are all adamant that a person must have a BMI of 35 to qualify..and with that there must be an accompanying health risk unless your BMI is above 40. Its your body and your money..but it does seem like an unnecessary risk at this point...Just my 2 cents..

Thank you , I don't mind people's opinions at all if they are put nicely! (Like yours)

Again I have been 34 BMI and only lost w diet pills ... I'm at the end of the tether and I am very willing to take this risk knowing all I have learned to make my life more enjoyable! Thanks ????

Thanks Carol! Last week I heard (from children) a single guy was told "no, you don't want her she's quite fat" .... I am obese and have fought for 10/15 years against my weight issues & I'm tired ... I think this tool sounds like exactly what I need - I can't wait! x

Now that is a battle I can understand..my bmi is 43 right now and my surgery is May 3. I am in the preop- mostly liquid diet and the folks around me are asking why i need the surgery if I can lose the weight doing the preop diet..they just don't understand what its like to feel hungry when you know you shouldn't..i lost nearly 100llbs a few summers ago using various diets, HCG shots, adipex..etc..exercised regularly..ate mostly right..but gained almost all of it back in just a few months..tired of this yo yo life..my hope for the surgery is to help me not be hungry for a while so I can truly change my own habits..without relying on a drug...

Oh F me... I read the WHOLE thing... Someone needs to edit one of the first few posts and add "QUIT READING NOW" (once you get to the fighting it's impossible to just stop) haha

Now I need some of that Percocet!! My head hurts. And I kinda want a snickers...

OMG, you said my words, I wanted to stop, I could not, it was like Jerry Springer, but even that I could change the channel on it....I sort of want a snickers too.

We have Drs here that state a BMI of 30 is good to do the sleeve ( with previous genuine failed attempts etc) as it prevents the patient getting to the point where they are in a life threatening weight situation and they're healthier on the operating table to do the sleeve - prevents getting unhealthy to get healthy at an earlier and safer intervention point - I'm just saying basics as there would be other factors looked and psyc consult also involved - but makes sense - u can't have tunnel vision when discussing this subject - u appear negative and obnoxious and a know it all - u need to be more considerate how you put things

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
