Having thighs that don't catch on fire from rubbing.
Fitting into hot, high heels without looking like Miss Piggy.
Wearing a choker without choking.
Actually not fitting into clothes because they get too big instead of too small.
Walking into Ann Taylor, banana, etc. and not just buying jewelry.
Being cold instead of hot all the time (may be just "lady troubles" lol)
Not being so invisible when hanging out with a skinny friend.
Getting "that" look again from my husband...

It couldn't have gone better. I am even more confident now that I am making the right decision. I learned a good deal from the nutritionist. Now onto gastro and endoscopy this week.

I'm still in pre-approval stage. Had PCP visit and she will write letter of recommendation to go out this week. Had nut and psych today which went really well. Gastro and endoscopy this coming week. Then it's crossing fingers for approval!!

Thanks! I am a Jersey Girl too (Passaic Co).

That's awesome. Good for you. I am November 19 too, and have BCBS. Psyched!!

Just really excited to be moving the process along and had to tell somebody! Hope today's visits go smoothly. On my way (and tearing up slightly, jeez, what a baby!)!!

WOOT! That is awesome! What a feeling I bet. I can't wait for that experience. I have been buying smaller sizes at consignment shops, tag sales, etc. (not going for broke at this point just in case there is a snag...). I can't wait to buy stylish clothes again.

This is good to know. I recently bought sandals and boots a 1/2 size smaller (they were on sale) in anticipation for a bit of shrinkage after the surgery. I too will be glad they won't look like Miss Piggy feet!!

I had my appointment and all in all, things went better than I expected. My PCP talked with me about the surgery asking me a bunch of questions. I thought she wasn't warm to the idea at first, but after a bit said she would recommend it for me. She has a few patients in various stages around VSG, one very successful after being sleeved a few years ago, and one going through the pre-surg requirements. We even went over the language of the letter suggested by my bariatric surgeon, and she beefed it up a bit.
Pleasantly surprised and super-relieved. I have nut and psych on Sat., endoscopy on Tues. We're getting closerrrr!! Thanks everyone for your support!!

Thanks everyone for the encouraging words! I am sooo thankful for this board - it's great to know I can come here to discuss topics like this. I will report back after my appointment.

I have my PCP appt coming up and she is not exactly warm & fuzzy. I am a bit afraid she will not support my VSG, and
I need a letter of recommendation from her. She is relatively thin and is somewhat condescending in her attitude about my being overweight, weight loss efforts, etc. What if she doesn't recommend the surgery?

Everyone looks so amazing. What an inspiration. I have a tentative date for the end of November and I am so excited.

Very new here...I'm in W. Milford. I'm scheduled for Nov. 19 with Advanced Laparoscopic. Sooo excited!
