Too fat for the surgery...Anyone need an earlier date March 17th?

$8,000
So I just got a call from Cynthia and basically I'm too fat. ;( There is no way I could have lost 60 lbs in 2 months but whatever. I'm at work about to lose my mind but I came on here to type away my disappointment since I cant cry smh. Yes I understand I need to be at a healthier weight but it's just not coming off as fast as I expected. The weight and eating habits from my pregnancy have really effed me up. I am so sad its ridiculous but I know it's safer to do it at a lower weight. The crazy thing is if I lose 60 lbs I wont need the surgery. I'm tall but wear my weight well at least I think. When I was 235 I was a little smaller than what my hubby likes. IDK pissed off yadda yadda hate being [RS bleep] fat. Then I don't have money to waste, I just booked my tickets day before yesterday with no insurance like a dumb ass and of course that's gone to waste.

Don't be discouraged doll. My weight doesn't come off easily either. For one year I worked out for 1.5 hours and lost just a few pounds. even with healthier eating. My problem is my glycemic index gets out of whack when I eat carbs. To lower it down, I needed to really monitor my carb intake. That is what worked for me. I was down to eating 50-60 mg of carbs a day which meant that most of my diet was veggies, fish and lean meats. It wasn't easy but it's what I had to do if i wanted to lose weight. Also, think of it this way, that 60lbs is not going to help you get the figure you want. The doctor can only lipo 4 liters of fat from your body. The closer you are to a healthier weight, the better the outcome will be of the lipo sculpting. I've seen women who were too overweight get the lipo and you really can't tell the difference. What's the sense in getting a nice butt if you still have 3 bra rolls on your back and your silhouette isn't what you envisioned? 10K is way too much money to spend and not get the results you want. Even if you lose the 60, you will have enough fat, believe me Dr. Salama will find it and will do the damn thing. So no worries about that!. Take it as a positive sign, and give yourself the time to do this right. We want you looking fabulous and healthy at the same time. Isn't that what you really want, to celebrate a new beautiful and healthy body? End that pity party girly you got this!
Thanks soooo much. I get in my feelings way too easily. You are right. I'll still be fat ass with a phat ass. lol So I am definitely going to postpone it to around November or so and see how it goes. I guess I was doing so much mental preparing that I didn't think about the weight factor. But I am on a mission now to get this weight off and will make the best of this.
That's what I'm talking about. This is your new mission. The journey is not the surgery, it the road to it and the voyage after!
Some wireline have a 48 hour cancellation allowance, call and check. Anyway good luck on your weightloss journey, see what you can loose in the next 6 months and try again.

Oh sweet. let me look into it. Thank you!
Dr McAdoo baby... He will do it and he is good please don't waist your money in tickets girl believe me.
Hey Hun, sending positive energy your way. Everything happens for a reason and you definitely want not only an aesthetically pleasing outcome, but a healthy one as well. Just reschedule and get to work losing the weight. The HCG diet is pretty effective in getting weight off quickly but it's very restrictive. You can check it out to see if it's for you. But the important thing is to see this all as a healthy lifestyle change. I have total confidence in your ability to do what you need to get the look you want!
I am 5'10 270lbs. My doctor is willing to do my surgery. I understand how you feel and know what you mean by carrying your weight well. People don't believe how much I weigh. I'm large at the top and small at the bottom. I wish you well on your journey. Don't give up on your dream. I had the Lap ban over a year ago and stuck at 270lbs. I see other people losing 70lbs. Its frustrating because many doctors don't understand you can't be a size 8 or smaller. I look really small at 200. I have always weighed more than I look. Well, wishing you look from someone who understands.

Getting closer to my date...

I'm doing so much "research" that I haven't done any planning like nothing other than request time off from work. So I called up to the office yesterday and asked for Nancy but got Evelyn since she said Nancy was busy. I called to find out what am I supposed to be doing to prep. She said I should be getting a call next week explaining everything to do and what I'll need. So once I hear from them I'll book my travel etc.

As you can see from my last post Im hung up on people comparing my old pics on FB and stuff. Other than that I have been nervous and excited all in one. I just want things to go smoothly. I have high blood pressure and anxiety thats controlled with meds so my Doctor said I will be good. But of course I'm stilling asking myself why am I doing this? I always wanted it and it's ultimately for me to feel better about myself. I want to fill my jeans!!! My ass sags in pants and no exercise is going to fix it. Idk what kind of reassurance Im looking for but I need a boost. :/ I am 45 or so days pre surgery why am I tripping?

I'm so excited for you girl...
Your feelings of anxiety are normal. This surgery is an emotional roller coaster. It will b worth it and you Will love your results. [RS bleep] What a hater think. Let them talk. Who cares? It won't change the fact your body looks good. When someone says..."oh..she had work!" What does that mean exactly? It doesn't make the person less attractive. So what! People need to count their own carbs and focus on their set of squats. SMFH
part of the emotional roller coaster we all go through. LOL not one sister that's been on RS has dealt with it any different. Each of us has had episodes of doubt and concern. It's part of the process. And after surgery, prepare for more of it :-) Stay close to RS and we'll get through hit together. IT's what has helped me through my process and journey.

Look at these before and afters...

What the hell? Idk why I keep thinking one of my frenemies will do this. Compare a before and after. I mean I know I shouldn't care but my friend showed me the page and Im like damn why are they putting people out there like that. What's wrong with a woman improving themselves and why the hell does it matter so much to you that they didn't broadcast their surgery. I know I'm biased because I'm doing my bbl but whhhhhhy I gotta tell lol I don't wanna! Thoughts???

Haters is why lol.
Lol yassss I gotta just keep reminding myself.
None of there business.... Ppl gain weight all the time. Some are luckier than others.
Haters...
So crazy that you say this because its hard out here for a pimp ain't it! I don't know what my thought process was before thinking about the procedure but I do know that hate is real. It's making me really think hard about who I want to tell. If anyone! People want to know your business just so they can talk about you and gossip. I plan to be VERY selective.
