I am going to my 4th Options class tomorrow evening in Fontana. The classes have been interesting so far. I just can't seem to diet yet.

I'm trying to prepare myself for the diet now before the official start next week. Meal times and portion.

I'm on week 2 of Options @ Fontana and still haven't started a "diet"! I've been off and on diets the last 15 years so I don't know why it's so hard this time around! :(

This week will be my 10th class Options/Fontana. Still not sure if surgery will be approved. I was told 1. BMI is too low 37

2. I need to 3yrs cancer free (I'm 2yrs out

I'm still continuing classes as I hope I will be approved in 2weeks.

I wish you the best of luck. Was your Bmi 40 before you started? I was worried about that because my bmi was low so naturally I went under because we have to lose weight. I was told I would still be approved as long as my staying bmi met the criteria. CONGRATULATIONS on 2 years cancer free!!!!! I hope everything goes in your favor

My BMI was below 40 when I started so I was excited when I was approved for options program, guess I'm nervous cause in close to finishing courses & still don't know. What is staying BMI?

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
