At 3:52pm on December 10, 2007, Carmen Ware said…: So glad to hear your on your weigh. I don't wish you luck I wish you health. I am down 103 pounds and could stand to lose another but, already it has paid for itself. I feel great. I just can't wait to be able to get up and down off the floor. Although when I wrecked my bicycle I was able to get back up. Help I've fallen and I can get myself up. Sounds so simple but, my knees didn't feel like they were gonna bust out and no crying involved. You are so lucky to have it while your young. So grab that grandpa and give him a big ol hug. Merry Christmas to Stephen right. Take care Carol Ware

It made me feel some pressure in my stomach, and I only took a couple of sips. So, I just stay away from the stuff. I drink gatorade, water, juice...And can drink a good amount. I do have to do the sipping at meal time. Otherwise, I can overfill, and become very uncomfortable. The other thing I can't drink like I used to is milk. Plain milk sits heavy in my stomch. Chocolate milk sits much easier, for some reason. Weird, hu? Tips...Follow the instructions in the manual, don't overeat, get your fluids in, be patient and allow yourself (mentally) the time to heal. It's a new way of life after surgery, and I know that I had to adjust. I'm not very patient, which didn't help. Take your meds, and take good care of yourself.

At 10:05pm on November 23, 2007, Linda Underwood said…: Stephen: Congrats!!!!! My #1 recommendation is to take your measurements as well as weigh. Write these down the day or so before surgery as well as every month, around the anniversary of your surgery. There will be times when the scale may not move, but you will still be losing inches. It will really help you stay motivated!! Please keep us informed of your progress!!

You may want to post this question to the board, and see what others can advise. I went with an equity loan. Sorry I can't be of more help, but I know there have to other options out there.
Keep trying...Don't give up.
