  1. DAy three and already six lbs down. I know it's water weight but wow. Never seen my scale move so fast!
  2. Exactly what I needed. Thanks all!
  3. Am sure it is on here somewhere but I did a search and couldn't find it. What should I pack for hospital?
  4. June 28th! So close. So far away
  5. Thanks Robin. So far the diet isn't too bad. But I am trying to stay calm. Excited nervous...feel a little nuts
  6. Nerves are starting. Am I crazy to do this?
  7. Well it's off to get my head examined than. I am hoping the guy who did my consult will see me
  8. I am self pay. I am just required to get one session in before the surgery. It threw me for a loop. I thought I had done " fine" with my psych interview.
  9. Just found out my phyc consult resulted in a recommendation for therapy. I have to have my first one by a week before my surgery June 28th. I now feel stressed, a little judged, crazy and like this is going to block my surgery.
  10. Even though I am self pay my surgen requires a letter of medical necessity. I am paranoid my primary won't do it! I am just so worried that something is going to stand in the way of my sleeve!
  11. Thanks!! I needed to hear that
  12. Glad to hear. I don't know anyone personally. How fast did they loose?
  13. Anyone heard any stories of people regretting their sleeve?
  14. My surgery date got pushed back a week. My surgeon will be out of town. So disappointing!
  15. Just got a call that I need a sleep study. Is this normal? What should I expect?
  16. June 21st! It's real! Wow what a feeling!
  17. sigh. Yeah I figured as much. I am going to keep being good. I do have a Vegas trip scheduled before the surgery.
  18. I have just started my first steps! I have attended my seminar and am meeting with the surgeon. I know will be self pay so I am hoping to have fewer "hoops" to jump through. I think my surgery will be in mid June. Does this mean I am free to eat what I want until the pre op diet?
