With 6 days already into November, I'm still going to challenge my self so I'm committing to 30 hours of exercise. Wish me luck!!

Why not!? SW: 425 DOS: 376 CW:338 Thanksgiving: 320 "If I believe it, anything can happen!"

Sleeved on the 20th. Been a little hard-headed. But learning to listen to my body. Only problem every time I drink anything I have to belch constantly. :-( HW-425 SW-376 CW-352

I go next week due to my work schedule. I'm ready to see what progress I've made.

Go you! I was sleeved on the 20th as well.

Yes we are! How did everything come out?

I have a desk job and I had surgery Tuesday August 20th. It's difficult trying to sit in a chair and let's not even talk about bending over :-( but everyone is different so do what's best for you.

How long was your hospital stay?

Thanks

Hows pre-open so far?

Thanks everyone I received a call today saying that I am approved and that my schedule has been changed to August 20th. I have a lot of emotions going through my head right now.

August 20th!

My surgery day is August 20th as well...three days after my wedding so no cake for me

Was scheduled for 9/3 but was called today saying that I was approved and changed to Aug. 20! 2 days missed on pre-op diet so starting in the morning going in hard.

Me too!

September 3rd upon approval!

So I started this journey in January of this year. It was horrible stepping on the scale and seeing 425 appear on the scale. I was determined then that the weight had to come off. I started seeing a Dr. at North Atlanta Surgical Weight Loss center and put my trust in him with my life in his hands. Unfortunately he disappeared a month later with no paper trail. I was devastated but I guess that was God showing me another way. I then saw a commercial for Live Healthy MD and was introduced to the best support team around. I called and was scheduled for my initial consultation on April 15, 2013. I met with my surgeon Dr. Darren Glass and his team Dr. Edward Boland, Trish, Tammy, and Shannon. They took me under there wings and helped me began to take control of me. With them I have already lost 46 pounds currently weighing 379. My documents were submitted for approval on July 25th and have been given the tentative date of September 3rd upon approval. I'm excited that I'm finally going to able to truly enjoy life with the obstacles that it may bring without having to also worry about my weight. Fingers crossed hoping to hear that everything is a go!

I'm here with you. I just completed my last month on the supervised diet that my insurance required me to do. Now I'm just waiting to be seen by my surgeon and the insurance decision. I'm soooooo nervous that the insurance company will deny me as well. But I'm hopeful.

Do any of you have aetna for insurance. If so which Dr and what process.

What kind of shoes?

So you did the multi disciplinary regiment...

I have the same insurance but the doctor that I'm going with is saying that I have to do the diet for a total of 6 months and that it if required by my insurance...What is wrong! :-(

Ok, thanks

Have you had your surgery yet?

So I have to do three consecutive months with each? I started my process on January 29th. After my surgeon bailed on me I'm pretty much at a loss because I don't wanna start over.
