I’m about 28 days post op. For the first two- three weeks I was doing good. And I started to introduce soft food and then all the protein shakes started to taste worse than they did before. Now I’m at the point I can only eat some ever other day.. I’m feeling a bit lost and when I do attempt to eat it hurts for a good while.

I'm struggling with the unknown. How did all your processing go before you got your surgery dates? I currently have IEHP insurance.

Congratz!

I really hope they get their sh#% together for you

I don't have my exact date but my guess is I'm going to be a sept surgery as well. I got aug 17th for my consultant with the surgery center

Keep your head up. Take a deep breath and remember why you started all this and what you truely want for your life and not just the want now. Drink more liquids. Don't cheat because you are only hurting yourself. Call and maybe ask the surgery place if there is something they can recommend to easy the hunger a bit like a hunger blocking pill or some think to help ease it.

We've got this. We've made it this far

I can't wait. Congratz

I got approved! I go in for my consultant on the aug 17th!!! Then I hope I get my surgery date! I'm so excited!

I'm getting so scared they are going to deny me. I've been following my insurances guidelines but the past two-three months I have plateaued in my weightloss. I keep changing things to try and drop the weight but aside from liquid diet idk what else to do.. I don't drink soda or alcohol I try my hardest to avoid carbs, I eat at regular times, I'm trying to be a lot more active, .. I'm so scared they will deny me for the last of weight loss... and then I was denied because the doctor didn't send in the paperwork right.. but the insurance said just have them resubmit it.. I just want this change in my life to keep moving forward. Also I don't eat much because I eat off kid size plates but I'm stuck with my weight.

Hello. I'm 26 yr old from the so cal area (hemet/ San jactino). I'm married and mother of my adorable 2 1/2 year old son. I'm currently a stay at home mom. I started my journey in February weighing 352 and I'm currently down 330. My current stand still is trying to find out when my surgery will be. My insurance is being difficult but I'm doing my best to jump through their hoops. I'm applying for gastric bypass. I've been overweight all my life and I don't want this anymore. So I'm looking for friends and a mentor to help keep me on my path when I sometimes cant

That's awesome! I just got my consultant appointment today. I got in Aug 17th! I'm so excited

I'm currently just waiting for the referral to go through. I'm tempted to call since it was submitted Thursday.. but idk. Hw: 352 CW: 330 GW: 150 Ht: 5'4

I just wish insurances would get on the same page with everything. Like they have all the information put into the computer why is it so hard?

Feel free to message me if you ever need a buddy

Yeah. I'm frustrated too. I'm trying to be patient with all of them but damn how many hoops do I need. I just wish they would lay it all out and be clear about it. So I will just keep doing all I can.

I guess let's just keep making good changes and do the best we can.

So far I've done the nutritionist, now I'm doing classes, then they are telling me that I haven't been doing the right stuff and they wanna sign me up for another class .. I feel Like I'm being dragged through the mud. Currently I'm waiting for the referral to go trough to I guess go to a consultation with the surgeon. Nothing has been mentioned about the pysch evaluation or scans. I've done a seminar and hopefully a group meeting on Wednesday. But I just need someone to talk to about all this

Congratz that is always so amazing to see the transformation

I hope your journey is going well I would love to have more friends

Any kind of help or advice would be nice

Make sure to share some pics

That's awesome. I'm struggling to even get things in gear towards getting a date for mine.
