Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Everyone is doing so well! I've hit a little bump (again), but will get through it. I don't think I'll die waiting one more week for my revision. I posted about the postponement on another thread. So here's the stats: Starting weight 202 Last week = 96 This week = 92 Loss this week = 4 (I DON'T need THAT!) Total loss = 110 Current BMI = 15.8

Kim! Why isn't someone taking this more seriously???????????

15.8 Oh my goodness! Kim I am praying that your surgery goes AS PLANNED 11/30 thisisi CRAZY!!!!! hANG IN THERE!

Hello all hope everyone is doing fine. Well me getting my ventral hernia and skin removal (guess it's called a panniculectomy) surgery by the end of the year is up to my insurance company now to decide if it is a medical necessity . I met with my weight loss surgeon that is going to do my hernia repair and the plastic surgeon who is to assist with the hernia surgery, and do the panniculectomy. They both agree in there minds the surgery is a medical necessity. The plastic surgeon said he estimates he will remove about 20-25 pounds of excess skin. I am as nervous about waiting to hear from the insurance company for there approval as I was waiting for the approval of my RNY surgery. Hope everyone will have a great Thanksgiving.

Hi Britt, I'm showing a 3 lb gain from last week. With grandma passing away this week and all the food that's been around...I've just eaten horrible this past week. I've got to buckle down again. Starting weight: 329 lbs last week: 173 lbs current weight: 176 lbs loss: 153 lbs Hopefully, I can loose that 3 lbs I gained fast ! Course, Thanksgiving is coming up..so that's bound to NOT help. Loretta

Loretta - when there is a will there is a way! you can do it! be determined to RID those 3 pounds. Hang in there and happy TURKEY DAY! Hugs, Britt
