Guest guest Posted January 21, 2000 Report Share Posted January 21, 2000 Hi all, I got the chance to watch 48 hours last night, I thought it was kinda positive myself. I saw myself on there, the 19 year old weighing in over 500 lbs. I mean I could actually relate to how she felt. It's not amazing to me that most of the people who are unsupportive of WLS, have no weight problems at all. But look at us, I mean we are more energetic, no more MEDS, no HPB, no sleep apnea, no joint pain....NO DIABETES....What is wrong with the medical profession, JUST LOOK AT US! I am 8 months post op...I feel great. I was a size 28 (squeezing in it) and now I'm a size 20... Shoe size went from a 8 1/2 to a 7 1/2, no more swollen ankles...I can run and play with my sons. SIT ON THE FLOOR. Even JOG.... 8 months ago, I was depressed, hurt all of the time, had no energy. I would just go to work, eat, go home, eat, sleep,and did I say eat. That's no life for any of us. Those of you who has decided to have this surgery CONGRATS! and those in limbo JUST READ MY POST OVER AND OVER UNTIL YOU GET IT! OH yeah - I didn't like that one " therapist " response to the surgery either. Heck she was sitting on a table. How many of us can lift ourselves to sit on a table. I say we give those people that are in " denial " a couple of 100 lbs backpacks and let them carry it around all day just so they will know what we go through.... Ok, I'm stopping now, sorry I get FUMED. da SD May 19 318 Jan 10 231 -87 lbs ____________________________________________________________________________ ___ ____________________________________________________________________________ ___ Message: 8 Date: 21 Jan 2000 10:23:05 -0000 From: McJaneygrl@... Subject: 48 Hours So... anyone watch 48 Hours last night? Actually I thought the program was quite positive towards the surgery except for the one skinny minny who said she felt no one should have the surgery because it was like putting themselves in a prison with their choice and she had seen so many who developed an eating disorder. Oh duh... doesn't she realize we are in prisona but solitary confinement in our fat bodies and we have a medical disorder as is? Oh well... she can just go on the list with all the other misinformed people. All in all, the program just made me more excited to have the surgery. ____________________________________________________________________________ ___ ____________________________________________________________________________ ___ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2000 Report Share Posted February 4, 2000 : you bet I saw it .I've only made 4 tapes of it for people so far.I really think Dr.R has that technique beat by a mile. What do you think was the final push for me to get this started? I got a message from Debbie saying that they had recieved the Patient Info. form. I guess that means I'm IN the system now. I have eveything except my Lab.work and pysh. evaluation done.I'm waiting to hear if I'm approved before I spend that money.I have them scheduled just in case. I hope it won't be long now.
