Guest guest Posted July 12, 2001 Report Share Posted July 12, 2001 Well I went to weigh on the doctor's scale and was pretty dissapointed.. I have been exercising and eating watchfully and have only lost 4 lbs from last month. I really am not eating much, sound familiar, and I need the extra weight loss for my hips and knee joint. Yes, I am much better... I can't deny it, however, I still could not hold a job that requires me to do much and standing to cook or shop is sometimes pretty painful, getting in and out of the car hurts. This puts me way down in the " slow " loser column. I still need to lose about 100 lbs, but will be estatic with about 60. I think I am losing inches, though, in the thigh and butt area, my weakest link, so that makes me feel better I am terrified I will not lose much more weight and at 238 am still very heavy. Hoping and praying that this is just a slow time.. I don't want to be a fashion model, but the more weight I lose the better for my joints. and any more wls is out of the question at this point, I was a self pay and now I am on temporary insurance..I just found out that no insurance wants to cover you for 5 years after a wls.. any one.. and that is pretty scary. This is not all that is going on... I have been very positive and will keep working on it... thanks for letting me vent...
