  1. Wow, I will be crossing my fingers for you. The 6MSWL is a trial, and I wouldn't wish it upon anyone. I really hope you hear a quick approval.

    I am doing well! Only 9 more days until I finish my 6MSWL and then Novus submits to insurance! I am so excited, and I only need to lose 8 more lbs to meet my labor day goal. When are you hoping for surgery?

  2. *does happy dance* Approved, approved, approved! I am so happy I could almost cry. Thank you guys so much for being a part of my journey and so supportive of me as I tried to get through the 6MSWL.

  3. 50% complete with my six month supervised weight loss! :D

  4. All my paperwork is ready for submission to insurance except for the 6MPSWL. Can't wait until August 4th!

  5. As of 12 days after surgery, I am 32% down my excess weight. I am a little low on energy, but I am doing pretty good on fluids. I don't know what I would do without the forum for support.

  6. Aw, no problem, lady. We are all on the same boat here, hoping to have a better and healthier life. I just know how much August 4th means to me, so I wanted to make sure it was a good day for you too. Yeah, sometimes, our friends and family don't really know exactly HOW MUCH this really means to us. I am glad everything went okay, and I hope you hear back from your insurance soon!

  7. Aw, thank you that is such a great compliment. I really like to see the silver lining. Life is way too short to be caught up in the negative. Again congrats on hearing back on the sleep apnea test and moving forward on your journey! I know you will make this happen or keep on pushing til you do. :)

  8. Awesome, how long will the process be before you are approved? I am doing a summer program at the College of Pharmacy to get research experience. I'm excited, just have to figure out a good excuse to get to my PSWL appointments.

  9. Bought a new bathing suit today! S top and medium bottom. I can't wait for the lower half of my body to catch up!

  10. Does being an Old Navy size 8 count as single digits? I really can't believe I can wear a size 8 in anything right now!

  11. Finally moved and officially have internet again! I missed you guys...

  12. FINALLY! I am so excited to be done with my 6MSWL. I have lost a total of 16% of my excess body weight and today they are submitting my file for approval. I'm so happy.

  13. Food poisoning sucks, and it"s not particularly the best way to lose weight.

  14. Getting active is really becoming a habit! I love it!

  15. Good luck tomorrow! I am sure you must be so excited to be done with the 6MPSWL. Keep us posted!

  16. Good luck with your submission today!

  17. Good luck, Looou! I hope the surgery went well and your recovery is going smoothly! I am so excited for you.

  18. Had a really bad day on my practice pre-op diet. I have a lot more admiration for the people on here that can do it without cheating. Time to start over. I feel so guilty.

  19. Haha, I feel like I am on liquids after this stomach virus/food poisoning thing. Egg drop soup and Vitamin Water Zero for me! My poor tummy.

  20. He was a little abrupt, but I really do agree he is the best. He has been doing the sleeve the longest in Jacksonville, and he has really low rates of complication rates with his patients. That was a big reason I chose him. I also really love Novus. Susan and Megan have been so awesome with helping me through my insurance, and it is really nice to see what the sleeve has done for Megan and Jarrod!

  21. Hey Em, IO am going to be in J-ville on November 3rd through the 5th for my mom's VSG. Lemme know if you wanna meet up!

  22. Hey Emily, how did your appointment go?

  23. Hey Emily! I was reading the Twenty something forum and I noticed you are also from Jville. Are you having your surgery with Novus Center and North Florida Surgeons?

  24. Hey lady, how ya doing?

  25. Hey lady! Just wanted to check in on you? How are you doing?
