Topic: RE: Loan for self-pay

As we all know, not everyone is eligible for a loan, and getting one might take a long time, especially if the cash is needed right away. It is beneficial to me to improve my financial literacy. I read a lot of material and am happy to share some of it with you. On this Payday Say site, for example, you can learn how to borrow effectively. This is extremely useful knowledge that everyone requires.

You can always start the process again, if your head is now in the right place to be successful.

Topic: Has anyone else cancelled their surgery?

I posted about this before. I cancelled my weight loss surgery a few months ago after I thought I was so sure I wanted it. I just got scared and life cir****tances weren't that good at the time. Now I am regretting it. I need to get healthy.

Topic: RE: Experience with Lexapro?

I took it several years ago. I also felt loopy at first, then it began working for me. And it has to be noted, it is important not to stop taking this medication without consulting a doctor.

Topic: RE: Those GoLo T.V. Ads - GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Well, I notice now they are running a shorter T.V. commercial instead of the original one, and had hoped they did that to edit out the slam to WLS after possibly getting many complaints about that part from viewers. But, alas, NO .. the bit testimonial in it -- the customer still takes a dig at WLS ..

This kind of reminds me about Women's World magazine. A few years ago it was commonplace for them to feature a person (or sometimes 2 gals) that had lost a large amount of weight through diet, exercise, etc. on the cover, with a caption of something like "She lost ______ bs. and did it without gastric bypass surgery" (or "without surgery"). Lately I have not noticed that b.s. when going through the grocery checkout line at the store, so either maybe they "wised up" about it or the mag is no longer being published. ?

Topic: RE: I weigh over 600lbs what can I expect after I have my surgery

Do you know which type you will be having? With that extreme weight and BMI, I would hope - for reasons of safety and long-term result - you opt for a 2-part DS, with the first part being the VSG portion performed. After you have safely lost a certain % of the EW then you can return for the re-routing 2nd part of the procedure. Good luck on whatever you decide!

Thanks for the helpful information. Is there any foods that I should avoid?

I haven't seen that commercial yet! Jeesh you would think they would know better with so many people having weight loss surgery.
