NEW OUTLOOK ON 10% REQUIREMENT. WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT IT?

I finally broke my stall. I'm 2 pounds lighter than I was two and a half weeks ago AND!!!! I'm SIX (6) pounds away from my set goal for surgery 

This 10% weight loss that my insurance requires sucks! big time! but I have to admit that in the process of losing 30 pounds on my own (something I haven't done in awhile) I learned alot about my body, how to eat and exercise so forth and so on. Going through the 10% by myself have made me realize how strong I am mentally and physically.

So...Big ups! to Bluecross Blue freaking Shields of TN!!!

 Google the master cleanse that'll take 7 pounds off in 2 days it's a detox pray while you do
It kinda a spiritual fast it works good luck

Thanks...I'm on it now. This whole WLS has been a spiritual journey. Thanks again for the tip.

I'm glad you are making progress again.  Personaly I think the requirement of pre op weight loss neglects the fact that surgery is ncessary for some to achieve any significant loss.  Many would never qualify under this condition, myself included.  Thankfully you are not among us. 

It's definitely testing the little patients I have. LOL

 Ya I never did understand why wl was a requirement pre opt but a patient of mine who said she had to do the same said her Dr told her it was to see if she had the willpower to do it an could do it of not surgery wasnt for her an he wasn't doing it to patients who could show they couldn't  lose weight then I had someone tell me to make it easier on her heart during surgery idk what do u all think????

People always get all deep and spiritual when they are fasting, I just don't get it.  All I have ever gotten during a fast was pist and grouchy,  guess i'm just not deep.

 Ya Lee I hear u but seriously fasting is not a solution but it does help an does work specially if she needs 7 pounds I just added spritual because prayer got me thru it an I rather tell people it's spritual because it to me means more an less negative people telling me it doesn't work did it twice I love the detox because if I read the fast it cleanses an rid ur body of a lot of terrible toxins u rally do feel better an a lot lighter an check out the inches lost

I have been kinda snapping lately, chopping off people heads. I'm one step away from caughting a case for this WLS. ROTF! to be honest I thougth about fasting but since I posted this I been losing the weight I'm  down a pound a day just by adding more water to my diet.
