Wow that's tough! I can understand your feelings about being told you have to lose 40 lbs. I got told the same at the fertility dr. last month. (Which sorry it didn't work out for us to meet when we were in Norman) Although I've lost 120lbs since started this, I haven't lost but 10 since September, even though I've gone down 2 pant sizes. The Dr was like "gee, that surprises me you haven't lost more".
I explained that I was still fighting anemia and I really think I lost too much too quickly and I'm going thru an adjustment period. And I have lost 2 pant sizes since then, so it's not like there's not anything going on.
But still, it was a major disappointment that I have lost that much with no pat on the back or at least a little fan fare.
Hubby had a harsh talking to about quitting smoking, lose weight and cut back on his beloved coffee. (Which he does need to make changes too, so I was glad she talked to him, but it was harsh to hear) To top it off, his jeans button popped off when he went to the bathroom as we were leaving. It was like salt in the wound!

Topic: this could happen to you
in december i went to see dr. keith thinking i had another hernia, after a ct scan the report was the muscle does not contract and bulges out...was told to exercise and that it would strength it up..three weeks ago I started having a bulge where the last hernia was...everytime i exercised the bulge would get bigger, pressure would build up and i felt like i was in one of those alien movies where the female human is pregant with an alien baby and istead of co ing out naturally it busted through the stomach walls.
last week i went back and saw dr. keith he said another damn hernia..had me go take another ct scan...and told me at the appt I needed to lose 30 pounds before he would operate. today i went and got the results..expecting to hear hernia...instead the main muscle that runs down the middle of the abdominal area has baically left my body..it does not contract or retract....That the bulge will not go away no matter how much i exerxcise...his solution...for me to lose the 40 to 50 pounds to be at goal and thqt he would go in with more mesh and fix the problem.
Anyone who is over 350 pounds prior to surgery cqn have this happen to them..
i am depressed, I feel like a freak and a loser...I lost 353 pounds in 24 months gained back 10... lost 5 pounds since last week. Just to be told I have to lose 40 pounds to look normal.
i know complications can happen and do..I am the living proof but when will it end for me.
Plus to top that I am going to have to have hip replacement from where I waqs kicked by a stud and arthurtis haas destroyed the joint....next
