Doldrums?

Hey everyone. I know I haven't been on in a while. This is why. I'm right smack dab in the middle of my 6 month diet and I'm feeling like it's taking forever. I've done most of my pre surgery tests and evaluations, and the ones I haven't done are because they have no open appointments. Did anyone else go through this? How did you get through it?

Thanks :)

I just got done looking at your album of pics and I can't believe your 350. Your so handsome! I commend you for going thru all of this. It's got to be so much harder for guys to jump thru all the hoops. Keep us updated!

well i think i am going through kinda the same thing... I have to do all this pre op stuff that i wish i didnt... the whole 6 months of psychiatric evaluations and 6 weeks of diet classes =/ sucks but i am only 17 so idk if thats why it really does get annoying to sit and have to waittttt soooo longgg lol but i keep positive!

good luck to you!

Thanks Melody and Cortney for the well wishes. Good luck to both of you too.

And Melody, a lot of people say that. I carry my weight VERY well. I'm tall so that is a big reason. But I am worried about any future complications.

Thanks for the replies!

Drew as a cash patient I didn't have to jump through all the hoops but I can tell you at almost 2 months post-op it is worth everything you are going through!!!! Every pound lost is a victory and means a longer healthier life and I commend you for making this life altering decision at such a young age!
