Hi, I'm looking for some concrete answers. My BM is technically low, I'm going to get a gastric sleeve in Mexico but I am curious if there are BMI requirements to get it done?
I have BED (and have had for many years my metabolism just isn't keeping up anymore) but more importantly I have a pretty badly injured back (I was off for a year and a half) and a physically demanding job, my knees hurt and my hips hurt, I've got a peptic ulcer (treating currently) my blood pressure is elevated and I'm retaining fluid. 40-60 extra pounds is literally causing me to fall apart and diet pills don't work anymore. I'm so miserable and I can't continue to waste my life feeling this way. I'm not concerned about losing the weight all at once, slow and steady is fine with me, but I can't get it to budge at all - at least in the downward direction for more than a few days. I am exhausted and I sincerely dislike the woman I see in the mirror.
please tell me there is hope?
im looking to get financed as well and checked into Beliteweight so far. Not sure where else to look, considered care credit, but don't want to apply until I'm sure because I don't want my credit score dinged. Thanks so much!

WARNING TO SELF AND TO ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN!!! AVOID 'BAD' CARBS AT ALL COSTS!!! THEY ARE ADDICTING!! THEY WILL SLOW DOWN YOUR WEIGHT LOSS DURING THE LOSING STAGE (and you won't even notice)!! THEY WILL MAKE THE SCALE GO UP AFTER THE HONEYMOON PERIOD IS OVER.
Success in Maintenance starts with GOOD CHOICES during the Honeymoon Period.
I feel I need to repeat this: I am a FIRM believer in Good Whey Protein Drinks!!!!! It is sooooo much harder to do Maintenance without them!
I sure hope my Protein Powder comes today!! Normally I would be sipping away but instead I just took a bit of an apple slice and the juice went down the wrong way and I'm chocking on it.... The girl in the office across from me just asked me if I'm alright.
Protein:
Breakfast: 1 Slice of Cinnamon bread
Snack: Apple/Cheese Snack
Lunch: Bad Day so far: Work ordered pizza

It looks like it's just you and me again today....
I agree!! I like keeping busy too!! Right now I am bored and I just went to office fridge and got an fruit/cheese snack. I'm hoping my Protein Powder comes today because water just isn't cutting it.
Looks Good!

I was thinking of everyone tonight and thought I'd drop in to say hi. I've been working some wicked long hours and training early in the morning before work.
I'm looking for a new job that doesn't suck the life out of me. If I find one, I'll be back more often.
Hi guys,
Spent all day at the new contractors' office...good thing about it, there's was no chance to snack.
