Recommended Posts

Oh my god yall I never thought I'd be this close, getting kind of nervous, but excited!!! I don't know if I've lost any weight on my 2 week pre op diet I'm sure I have I just need a scale. Any idea where to get a good accurate scale that doesn't cost too much??

Discount stores usually have them not too expensively. Do you have Ollie's in Texas? They have them very reasonably. Of course there is a scale at the doctor's office too and if you're in college just go to the health room. They will have one and should not mind if you use it.

Good Luck on your upcoming surgery!

This is the one I bought about 4 years ago. It's still running on the same batteries. It's only a scale, no bells and whistles like memory. It has served me well.

If I were you I wouldn't even buy a scale right now. You will get weighed everytime you go see your doctor. Don't become a slave to a scale. You will experience stalls along your journey, and during those times you will become frustrated because you're not seeing the weight loss you expect if you're constantly weighing yourself. I'm one of those people that weighs herself everytime I go to the bathroom, (my scale sits right next to my toilet). Fortunately for me I'm not really bothered by what the scale says, but there are certainly a lot of people that are.

I'm going through a stall right now, and everytime I get on the scale I just ask myself will today be the day I break my stall or will I see the same thing tomorrow. I'm actually getting excited about when my stall will break.

Yeah, I'm kinda weird like that :)

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
