Hi Nancy, It sounds like in your depression you are turning back to old habits. Try not too. What you have accomplished so far is not even sort of a failure. You have so little left to lose to get where you want to be. This plateau is just another step in the process. I am battling the same thing. I am only 8 weeks post op, but I have plateaued twice (once right now) and have only lost 39 lbs. It is hard to keep on fighting for health. But you can. Don't feel like a failure, you have done great so far.. keep on tryin. Tami

NANCY-- I was on the EXACT SAME plateau... I was at 202 for over 3 weeks! and I finally was able to get over that plateau and I am now down to 199! Hang in there, you can do it.

Nancy your wt.loss mean's 9 months ago you were walking a round carrying (22) 5 lb bags of sugar that is an achievement in itself just to have lost all that wt. You still will be losing weight so don't gets discourage. See you lighter in the future. Charlene

Hey Nancy I was also wondering about fed insurance covering reconstructive surgery if you find out anything let me know if you could. I have hmo blue of tx and I am currently waiting for surg (open rny) in November but for the future I would love to know what insurance is the best for reconstructive surgery.

I too am a patient of Dr.Alexander's. My surgery was 08/14/01. I must say it is the best think I have ever done for me. Although I have to agree with you that there may be over load of patients to office staff there. Even as a post-op my waits in his office are usually anywhere from 30 minutes to and hour, very frustrating. However the way I look at it is I researched the other docs in my area and none have the success rate that Dr. A has that and you are right I do believe he cares. You will be in my prayers on 12/27 and if you need anything at all just email me [email protected]. Your friend in WL, Deirdre
