Till my final clearance before WLS with the nurse practioner and nutritionist. I have tried tracking and not tracking and Darn it, nothing is working. When I track, I feel as though I am concentrating on food and allowing it to consume my thoughts and actions. When not tracking, I thought I was doing ok.... NOT. I have got to be at 334 or below for my final appt or I'm scared insurance is going to decline me.

Rant over. @~~

    One of my biggest problems was portion size. Could that be something that could be setting you back? How much farther do you have to go down to be accepted for the insurance?
    That is a lot of pressure to be under and add to it that it is around holidays that revolve around food it can't be easy. Try to focus on each meal or snack at a time and making the best choices possible.

    Don't freak out yet!

    I didn't meet my pre-surgery weight loss goal either (not even close!), so I was put on a two week, pre-op liquid diet (protein shakes mostly). It was difficult but good practice for after surgery. I don't know what you're getting, but I had a gastric sleeve done on December 9th and could not happier. Finally I have a new weight loss tool that's working !!!!!! I'm down 37 pounds since November 21. Feel free to message me.
