Topic: RE: Need help?
I am so sorry about how you feel and I think we all have similar issues with image. MSI does cover the surgery in Nova Scotia but the Wait time is plus 10 years, the more co morbities such as diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea etc will help your Wait time and push you up on the list but please don't just sit and wait get started today. Your family doctor is the one who will refer you to the Halifax Obesity Clinic on Halifax. this form is great but there is also other help out there for support that is local and meets once a month. all the best to you and I hope for the best for you
Topic: Need help?
In the past 3 years I have gone from a whopping 160 pds, to a 239 pounds. In only 3 years, my weight is starting to skyrocket. I am binge eating. I cant stop, I am always hungry, and always thinking about food.
I have considered slim band, but the cost alone is way too much for me. And I have heard horror stories as well.
I am supposed to be getting married this year, which I am post poning till a later date because I feel so disgusting. I used to look really good, get all the hot guys at the clubs ect, now I am lucky if my fiance thinks I am still attractive.
My body is drained, I have put it through so much physical abuse, and cant take this anymore.
I am only 31 years old, and I shouldnt be in this mess. I have 2 boys, there toddlers, and they want to go outside all the time, but I am so god damn lazy I dont feel like taking them for walks. I want my old life back, but its gotten to the point where if I dont work my ass off at the gym 24/7 its not going to happen.
I have yet to find out if I have any underlying medical conditions because of my weight. I am waiting on some tests from the hospital to find out about thyroid issues ect...
Can anyone tell me, who do I talk to in regards to getting the surgery?
Wil MSI cover it?
How do I know if I am even able to get the surgery ect????

Topic: Clothing
I had surgery June, 2011. I have some 5x clothing, 28, 26 clothing to give away. Is there anyone in the New Glasgow area intersted in them. Mostly skirts, dresses nice summery things. If you can use them let me know.

You look simply amazing Kit!
I too had to be consciously intubated, and I didn't have a lot of time to panic about it.
I can't believe the difference a year makes!
If you live local, you could come to our support group and be an inspiration to us all!
We have meetings local to HRM, and a facebook group.
Great bunch! Would love to have you join us!

Stick to the under 40 grams of carbs, 80 grams protein, at least if not more 8 cups of fluids a day and exercise! And most importantly patience will get you to your goal in no time!
