  1. Yesterday was my 1 year surgiversary and I had lost 134, 46 more to go. It's been a difficult journey, but it's been worth it. My decision to have the gastric sleeve was the best one to jumpstart living a healthy lifestyle.

  2. It took 41 weeks but I finally lost 101 Ibs, considering that I haven't excercised I think that's pretty good. Tomorrow starts my 90 day Turbo Jam Challenge. Wish me luck

    Entire body tingling

    I am 3 days out from surgery and I have been walking for 30 minutes twice a day at the playground across the street. Once I am done walking i feel kind of light headed but what is bothering me is the numbness/tingling feeling on my left side. I drink 12.5grams of Protein before i start along with my Multivitamin. I am sipping Water while I am walking when it is needed and I drink another 12.5 grams of protein once i make it back home Has this happened to anyone else and of so do you have any suggestions to preveny the tingling feeling

    Thanks for all the suggestions. I called and left a message with my Dr's after hours service hopefully someone will get back to me soon.
  9. I'm at the hospital right now I'm so excited. I know I should be nervous but for some reason I am at peace. So far the nurses have been awesome and encouraging and my Dr just left after praying with me. In the next hour or so Ill be a sleeved woman, I'll check in then

    Today is the day

    Thank you everyone for the well wishes
  11. Dr. Schram (Grand Rapids, Michigan) ... He's my doctor as well, he has an amazing way with his patients.
  12. Congratulations on getting approved. I initially started off at GHP in Grand Rapids, MI. I basically had everything done there, it really was a great facility. However, I did not click with the behaviorist so I switched to Spectrum Health Weight Loss Specialists and I love everyone there so much more. Once I realized that GHP wasn't for me I called my insurance company and told them about my situation. I was told that I would be able to switch just have the Dr's submit the paperwork but if the new place wanted me to retake certain test I might have to pay for them out of pocket. Lucky for me they didn't need me to take any new test, just meet with everyone. I was even able to get a better surgery date, instead of waiting til August I'm having surgery on the 26th of June. So I recommend you call your insurance company directly and ask them what the procedure is to change doctors/hospitals.
  13. Happy 1 year Surgeriversary!!! You look amazing.
  14. ** Runs in doing my happy dance** My paperwork was submitted June 4th. I was approved on the 5th and I got my surgery date today, JUNE 26TH. I was picking up my daughter when they called to confirm my surgery date. I screamed so loud that everyone in the parking lot stopped to stare but today was one of the rare days I didn't mind being the center of attention. I'm so excited, the only thing that gave me pause was the fact that I was asked if I would be interested in having the procedure done with robotic assistance using the Da Vinci Robotic system. I love technology and I trust my surgeon so I think I'm going to let him use the robot.
