    Hey there Stacy, in regards to your knees my recommendation is to see an orthopedic surgeon. My parter who was a star athlete in his younger days, and has been lean and fit all his life had to have knee surgery 3 years ago. I just read a post of a veteran sleever experiencing knee pain even after losing some considerable weight. Kindle mentioned a friend of hers needing knee surgery after bypass surgery and losing 150lbs., and mentioned that surgeon would not have performed surgery had she not lost the weight.

    Surely losing weight will alleviate some pain, and certainly your overall health will benefit from weight loss.

  4. I have a question, something I don't see discussed very much. One of my biggest complaints is my achey knees and hips. Do they just get better as the weight comes off?

Biography:
46 year old wife, mom and mammie. I've been over weight pretty much my whole adult life. I've tried all the diets, lost some weight but always gained more back. I'm very smart about nutrition. I've always believed I could do this on my own until just recently when a light bulb went off and I realized I need help!!! I am to young to have achey knees and hips. I just got a horse in the fall and I'm having the time of my life with him. I'm ready to feel as good physically as I do emotionally. I love my life!! So I'm just starting the process, I've been told it could take 4-6 months.

I am so happy, walking on cloud 9!!! Had my last nutritionist meeting today and the surgeons are open for appts ASAP. I was told originally that upon finishing my appts it would take 3 to 4 weeks to get to my surgeon appt. but today she said within a week!!!
Also I would like to share

I have my first 2 hour nutrition appt tomorrow followed by a one hour physical therapist appt (I didn't even ask why we have to have that appt.). Maybe after these appts things will feel more real!! I can not wait to get to a surgery date!!!

Pretty Excited

I really don't know how this is all suppose to work. I had my primary make my referral, which took her a month 😡. I filled out all the paper work they sent me, went to a mandatory support group meeting that I needed to attend at some point. I thought after that I would get a call from them to schedule an appt. , better then that, today in the mail I received 3 dietitian appts, sleep study apt, physical therapy apt and the psychologist will be calling to schedule. Okay so all these appts

What do I do?!?!?

by Stacy70 on 08-24-2016 at 07:03 AM
I will try and keep this short as possible. My husband and I have been together for 25 years. I won't say me being obeses is his family's fault but we have adapted there terrible eating habits. His mom died at 64 from type 2 complications, his dad died of heart failure (also type 2) of his 3 sisters, 2 are type 2 and he has type 2 for almost 20 years not controlled. When I first started talking about the surgery he told me it was my choice, now he's saying he doesn't want me to do it and we will
