So my scale is in such hot water right now. I have literally GAINED weight ..../like 8 lbs. I'm a whopping 199 lbs now. I know it's crazy. I went to see a doctor today to start getting in the best health I could possibly for surgery. Will keep you posted.

You can also try seat exercises. I do that when I watch TV. I have a 5, 10 and 15 lbs weight set (although a heavy book, gallon of milk (clean and filled with water etc.) also work well. I work on biceps, triceps, chest flies. I also lift and squeeze my legs/abs. But, wait until you sciatica clears up for lower body. I hope you feel better!! Sciatica sucks!!

Hi, I hope and pray that all is going well with you. How is your weight loss journey going for you? Are you excited about your upcoming surgery in about two weeks? :)

Payments

M
MMO101
So far I have paid down about $4k on my surgery using Alphaeon. I have also started making payments on it prior to surgery for a nice jump start. I am looking to use another company for the balance. I am thinking I don't want to tie up my cash (savings) in case of emergencies etc. Any companies you ladies prefer? Please let me know!

Might have to use some of my tax refund instead...just tried CareCredit and it was a no go. Probably since I already have Alphaeon.
