so today was very interesting and still frustrating. last week i had a pre op appt with my PCP. had no idea they had to clear you as well. the girl who scheduled me gave me the last slot at 4pm and didnt tell the DCTR that it was a pre op appointment. i had bloodwork done on this day. sugar levels were through the roof. i was told once my pulmonary results were sent to them id be all set. i followed up with them and little did i know they still want urine tests for diabetes pulmonary results (which my surgeon sent over two days ago) consult to discuss how i'm handling my blood sugar levels (10 day liquid diet and bariatric surgery DUH) note from OBGYN that surgery is acceptable with implanon in my arm and additional blood work that they have not even ordered yet! mind you.....my surgery date is November 6th!!! so they got me ANOTHER pre op PCP appointment for November 1st at 1:00pm. im excited but nervous. its cutting it so close and what if my PCP says they need more? its frustrating because i've gone through 3 doctors already at this practice and my file keeps getting handed over to new dcts. they keep quitting or relocating!!! ive already gotten my fmla and short term disability set up to be out of work. im off the schedule for the next week 3 weeks plus my bro is getting married 11 days after surgery and its 12 days away!!!! i just hope and pray nothing else gets in the way and that everything goes smooth. on another note. i am so anxious. so excited so nervous but SO ready. starting my liquid diet on saturday and i cant wait!! at least i know my sugar levels will look good because ill be fasting all of friday night for my blood work. anyone else dealing w. pcp clearance issues? i guess its necessary but i really feel like its not because insurance cleared me haha.

im sorry that you feel this way! please know that you look amazing and that your progress is such motivation for us who are waiting to be sleeeved. i cant say anything to make you change how you feel but you are getting healthier and healthier every day just by the way you have changed your eating habits! feel better you are strong!!!!

ive gone through 3 different brands of e cigarettes when chantix failed. i am happy to say i am cigarette freeee and i use an e cig now which my surg approved i know i wont need it iin a few days. and i have surgery in 17 days~~~ my surgeon made me quit 3 weeks before surg and my e cig works great. i quit for 9 months during my pregnancy so i kinda keep that mentality and the fact that alot can go wrong with the healing process . it is hard but i feel alot better and less of a burden on me and the stink smell sticking to my hair. i feel so much happier and "lighter" so to speak. i cant really explain it lol.

any loose skin?????
