I know that if I called my doctor he'd tell me to come in for an unfill. It's getting back in for a fill that's hard. They have too many clients, and not enough appointment slots. I've had to wait weeks to get appointments in the past ( ... )

I'm sorry that I can offer nothing more than "I hope it gets better." I have struggled with weight all my life and am at a point that I am heavier than I have ever been and it makes me feel awful. I am starting to develop mild health issues as a result and I know I am at a point something needs to get going and soon. I understand your desire and need to lose, I am there myself but have not done surgery in my journey with my weight. Surgery has been something I've been nervous about, particularly when reading the difficulties many have had. I am not sure I would have the will power it takes to remain as compliant as one would need, but then maybe that's the point, it forces you...

In any event, you are brave and strong to have taken this step in making yourself healthier and I am sorry you are experiencing difficulties. I hope that overall the journey has been worth the struggles and that it becomes easier as time goes on. Blessings of health and success.

Thank you... I know how hard it is to try to lose weight on your own. I've been dieting and excercising, stuck in a cycle of gaining and losing for about 8 years, and I just got to the point that I felt like surgery was my best option. But, it's very expensive, and yes, I've had a lot of challenges. I'm still glad I made this choice for myself. I still feel that diet and excercise is the way to go if you can make it work. It just wasn't enough for me.
