Ugh I'm so impatient!! I have Caresource as my insurance & I wanted to see if anyone would think it would be acceptable to call them to see if they've made any decisions yet?

.... AND I'm down 30 pounds from my highest weight!!!

Thank you all ❤️

Thank you! I'm feeling great! (:

So I haven't been on here in awhile but I promised to keep everyone updated! I'm having surgery tomorrow morning at 10:30 am I am very nervous but i am also excited!! Thank you everyone for support

Hello everyone I have to start my two week diet on Wednesday for surgery on November 26th I'm getting very very anxious! I'm on the site everyday 10 times a day lol!! But I just want to know I'm on the right path so I'm going to list what I have so far for my full liquid diet two weeks before and 4 weeks after surgery.. I have muscle milk shakes, cookies and cream protein powder, cream soups, non fat dry milk, sf pudding, popsicles & light and fit yogurt. I want to know if anyone has any tips or anything.. I'm worried about how much I'm going to be in pain after surgery and how much I'll be able to take in? .. I'm staying at the hospital for 5-6 days because I'm younger and they want to keep a good eye on me.. I have a BMI of 52 and weigh 395 and I'm 6'1 & 17 years old.. Thank you all in advance for the advice (:

Thank you SO so much!!!

Thank you very much that makes me feel a lot better!! Thank you all for your support!!!!

Thank you SOOO much I will defiantly keep everyone posted (:

Thank you so much! I have been waiting about 2 years now I got approved last year but had some medical problems and couldn't go forward with it but now I'm back & ready I'm not gonna lie I am a bit nervous but I've had 4 other surgeries before so I know the drill!

OMG I'm so excited I've already been approved once a year ago so hoping for the same results!!! Last time it took about 2 weeks, how long did it take you guys? & no I haven't had surgery before I just backed out last year but I'm in again & READY!!

Yes very true I so cannot wait I've had different surgeries in the past & they are never as bad as it seems!! Keep us up to date!! & good luck!!!

Thank you so much same to you!!!

Okay well I was 16 & I just had a lot going on I was sooooo nervous and just felt like i could try it again on my own... Unfortunately I gained 60 additional pounds and now I am just so big I literally hate it I am very nervous!!! But I'm gonna do it! I have one of the best team of doctors!

I'm so excited!! Lol when was your surgery? Or when is it?

Hi everyone I'm Nate if you didn't already know that! But I am meeting with my surgeon next Thursday for the first time and I am really nervous everything is coming so fast but I'm ready for this!! Is there anything I really need to ask him?? I want to see what kinds of questions you guys asked when you met with yours.. Please let me know!! Thank you all!! -Nate

Hi there my name is Nate, I'm 17 years old and weigh about 394 pounds at 6'1 I've started to bariatric journey a little more then a year ago, I was scheduled to have the sleeve back in May of 2013 but I got to my two week diet and chickened out, worse decision ever.. I've gained 70 pounds since then but now I am back on track and I am having my surgery in October of this year! I'm soooo excited and pumped and just ready for a new life! I have some questions for you guys.. -What was one thing that REALLY got you through the liquids stage? -What was the worst part coming right out of surgery? -I'm currently a 3x shirt and a 46 size pants what can I expect? -Will I have a lot of loose skin? So there you go! Those are all I can think of at the moment! But I'm going to attach a picture of myself so everyone can see me.
