Has anyone on here not have a successful surgery? Please explain.
I'm going up and down in weight. I'm at 232 and not close to 199. I use my fitness pal, go to TOPS support group weekly, see a dietician monthly, my regular doctor monthly, and have a therapist. But it's all on me, I know this, but I'm constantly fighting urges to eat out. I started off strong in my journey, but now I'm fighting to stay away from carbs, pizza, spaghetti, any noodle really, waffles, and breads. I feel like I'm at my new weight and surgery was a waste.
I share all this with doctors/therapist, and there responses make sense, but im still not committed to following through with healthy food choices. Any advice other then criticism is appreciated. I had 2 appointments today and both were a hard hit of reality check, but not necessarily what I needed.
The really good, almost brand new things I took to a consignment shop. I remember the lady being amazed that I had been large enough to wear those clothes. Everything else went to Goodwill.
I did not keep anything in case I gained weight again.
When I got down to size 12, I bought a bunch of new jeans. Six months later I donated all of those because I was in very loose-fitting size 4's.

Congratulations on losing 200 pounds! I have never been to any of my high school reunions. Mostly because I live out of state and I already keep in touch with the good friends I knew back then. But if it was in my heart to go and I really wanted to see old friends not seen in years, I would go!
As I continue to lose weight, part of me is afraid to get rid of my old clothes just in case I ever need them again. At the same time, I am ready to move forward and am determined to not wear most of them again. Did you donate your clothes or sell them? If donating, any recommendations besides Goodwill? If I could sew, I would consider making something creative out of the more worn items. But sewing is a talent I don't have!

I will tell you right away, the adverse effects dissolved by themselves after stopping about two weeks; at the same time, I did not do any CPT (after course therapy) on purpose to see if the damage was severe (although gonadorelin was in the fridge just in case). And all thanks to the fact that I used the whole course of rats.army correctly. I took tests, all my hormones are standard, and the free has risen to almost the maximum limit. Good luck, and do not indulge in anything like that; if you are not a professional athlete, believe me, it is not worth it! Trust me; it is not worth it! Professional sports and health never go hand in hand!
I can pretty much guarantee you that you won't be the only one who put on a lot of weight since high school!
I just go to my high school reunion no matter what I weigh. I go to see old friends and catch up on things. Nobody cares about your weight except you.

I have hard time if should or shouldn't go to my highschool reunion nobody knows about my weight get to 650 lbs, and i weigh loss surgery and lose 200 lbs, i guess im uncomfortable with my ecess skin.
I am glad white dove answered your question. I had a bit of a scare early on but was ok. This place is great about answering questions and you have so many long term patients it is reassuring you can get a valid answer to any question. If I can offer any advice don't over stress about things you are right it is an emotional roller coaster but you will be ok it is one day at a time.
Yes! Big problem for me and it started when I was a kid because my father wouldn't get home until after 8pm and family meals were always after that time.
