I'm NOT heavy enough for bariatric surgery (anymore)
Oct 09, 2009
You have a BMI of 29.1.This shows that you are moderately overweight.
Your BMI is not high enough to qualify you for bariatric surgery
For the first time in 17 years, I am only considered....MODERATELY OVERWEIGHT! Only those of us who have been classified "morbidly obese" can truly appreciate the magnitude of this achievement! It has been 7 months, and I can hardly believe that this is my new life! I care about what I eat, when I eat, how much I eat. I LOVE going to the gym! I am finding muscles in places I forgot there SHOULD be muscles!
Mental health...sigh. I know that I was an emotional eater and learning to NOT eat when I'm upset is easy. It's dealing with the emotions that's killing me! Some days, I'm great! Other days, I'm a wreck! I haven't learned how to deal with all of the emotions that I DIDN'T deal with before! Sometimes they're very eratic...one minute I'm great, next, I'm ready to cry! Anxiety is starting in on me, too! Sigh.....
Anyone have any tips?
