So glad to hear!!

lexusgirl14....congrats...i'm so happy to hear that your surgery went well, as well as getting thru that hurrican!! Slow and easy....keep us update on your progress. And again...congrats!

Thanks vdiaz3072! Good luck with the liquid diet and surgery! It makes a lot if sense to me if a slip a bit but ugghhhh! He just made me feel a bit bad....oh well we will see what they say.

Thanks heller2u! That make sense. My doctor made me feel as if because I gained they might not approve...but if I could drop a lot of weight u wouldn't be here...lol! I'm just praying all goes well!

Yeah I hope so! I'll keep everyone posted...good luck to you too! Thanks natashad

Hey everyone! I have a YouTube channel also...it's a mixes of a lot of stuff but my wls journey is also on there! My username is: edandqui

Ok got my surgery date: September 19th!! Now for my pcp to give his ok and than info off to the insurance company! Can't really officially celebrate til I get the real OK! Lol....pray for me!

OMG!! I went for one of my last pre op visits with my surgeon and when they weighted me, I gained 6 pounds!!! I was doing so well up until the beginning of this month. I went into a bit of a blue funk and I sometime emotionally eat and hence the weight gain. I'm sooo scared my insurance will deny me because it looks like I didn't follow thru with the diet! I can keep myself in the butt!!! OAN: I have a surgery date of September 19th! I can't really be excited because of this weight gain issue! Please pray for me that all goes well...

Ok so all my test are done!! Yippie :thumbs_up: So I go to see my surgeon on this Friday (8/26) to get my surgery date and have my pack mailed out to the insurance company!!! Praying for an approval! I'll let you guys know how it goes....

Oh i'm so loving that name!! SEPTEMBER SPITFIRES!!! yes my vote is for spitfires! lol!!

I totally agree with the others. I also work in a small office of about 12 ppl and I have just recently opened up to 3 co workers about having my surgery. We are an office that also brings in treats for everyone to nibble on and in addition I sit next to the company cafe. So the smells are always driving me crazy. I don't expect for the cafe to move to the other side of the building nor my co-workers to stop doing what they do, all i can ask is that they respect my wishes not to tempt or flaunt food around me, lol! Once our mind set has changed into eating to live instead of living to eat, it won't see so hard.

Hey all my september sleevers!!! Me and my doctor are shooting for a september date as well. I have finished 90% of all my testing. I have to do a sleep study, chest x-ray & have a venus doppler test and that's it! I'm so excited to finally be making that change to healthier/happier me. I have a million emotions I go thru and it seemed like september would take FOREVER to get here and look its damn near August. I'm wishing all the best of luck and hoping we all graduate to that loser's bench with honors, lol!! I'll be watching everyone's process. P.s.

I toldly agree too! Once you sell something so near and dear to you, you may instantly regret it. I know what the money means to you and live a longer life my be better than being unhealthy with a cherished item. It's a truly hard call. I am having a hard time getting the money together for my surgery. My doctor feels that my insurance will cover it, but I have spoken with them several times and was told that they don't cover any WLS, at least the insurance package my job has. I am strongly looking into going to Mexico or trying to find some sort of finance company to go thru. I hope all things work out for you kansasgirl!! I'll keep you in my prayers. And msleesa...thanks for the info, I'm going to check it out myself.

glad everything went well!!
