Topic: RE: help !
I've lost 114 lbs and way below my goal but also went thru divorce and have ADHD(so I'm naturally hyper). Too bad the hyperness did not help me before when i was heavier lol.
If you have a store called Big Lots, i buy the nutrisystem nourish meals they are high protein low sugars and are good portion sizes, i have to confess I'm trying to gain right now but i still try to eat correctly even though when i don't i pay for it.
The more fluids you drink the quicker you become full so try that when you are hungry drink instead of eating, that's worked also for me. Keep your spirits up because you have come to far to just give up, also see if you can see your nutritionist.

Topic: RE: Anyone had a PS consult yet!!!
Just had a tummy tuck and augmentation done on 1-8-09, oh my gosh i can't believe how i look and more confident about myself. My insurance would not cover it, so i did a home equity loan so i could write off the interest. You can also do carecredit.com they finance health costs for you.
I'm a nurse so i checked into teaching hospitals locally that had plastics and reconstructive surgery, 5th year residents did mine, they did a good job, it cost me total 6000 included everything hospital stay of one day, anesthesia, surgery, this was for both procedures. Interns are more by the book and are not in a hurry because they do not have to make money to keep their practice open LOL. They took off a pound of skin from my stomach and went from an A cup to a D cup ( all i had there was skin too) maybe next year i'm going to do the thigh lift they are estimating about 2500 for that. So i may just hold my tax money and do that.

Hi Sherry! I have to say I made my surgeon's goal on my 10 month surgiversary. I'm now about 25 lbs below his goal. Are you getting in all your fluids, vitamins and protein? Are you staying away from the "bad" foods? Getting your exercise in? I was pretty bad about the vitamins and protein for a while. Then I saw my scale and it put my butt right back on program! :) I'm still a little bad at taking my vitamins but I try. :)
If you're having a lot of problems, go see your surgeon. He'll put you back on the right track. Good luck!

Topic: RE: Happy New Year!
Hello and Happy 09 to all. It seems we've all moved on in our lives and none of us visit here much. Actually, I visit daily, but I post rarely. My thought is that it's like a baby bird leaving the nest. I really needed and used OH during the first year. The support encouragement and friendship was priceless, however I found my wings and am not so needy anymore. I discovered I can fly on my own. My sincerest appreciation to you all. ~April
