  1. I have UHC, weight 204, BMI 35 submitted got approval in 7 days. I had to have medical necessity from primary care dr. 6 months supervised diet, phych eval, nutritional eval. Because my bmi was 35 I had to have co morbids. I have sleep apnea, borderline diabetic and family history played a huge part.
  2. Prayers being sent up for you, you will do great! Second chance at a new life tomorrow. God bless you friend
  3. This is the best thread yet! I have had all these thoughts and have even told myself Erica you wont cheat when deep down I know I will slip up from time to time. I haven't even had my surgery and yet the thoughts of eating what I clearly am not allowed to have makes me feel like a cheater. But I will stand accountable for my thoughts. This thread opens the eyes to the ones that haven't had their surgery yet and shows us all people struggle no matter what the cause. I wish all the struggles would leave us all but God has a strange sense of humor sometimes....lol! I hope I can avoid the cravings......but if not I to will come to this thread and confess!!! this should have been named Confession Room

  9. That was the only date he had open. She said he was booked to that date I wish I could have it sooner. I was hoping for early october!
  10. I'm glad its not only me. I thought I obsessed over this surgery before but it seems to have worsened since I have approval and a date. This date can't get here fast enough
  11. congrats good luck with everything!
  12. Thank you I think its because I have heard a few bad things but I have heard a lot of good. Your right I am playing over the possible problems
  13. I was wondering if this was a problem for others before you had surgery. I have had nightmares since I was told I was approved for surgery. Granted my surgery is in November, I have had dreams about failing my diet, being put under,waking up during surgery did everyone else do this? I wish my day was next week or tomorrow because I hate this feeling. I feel like im trying to talk myself out of doing the surgery. Yikes!!!! is this my nerves that is making my mind play tricks on me?
  14. MIJourney....I am finding that you have lost of good info.......Thank you so much
  15. So sad! I wouldnt even sweat it, Girl you need to not be upset about that. But if it were me and I was in your shoes I would have taken my cute self away from him and started a new conversation with another guy as a example like "He isnt your only option, he was lucky that you chose him" with an attitude like that I would make sure that man would find his self by his self
  16. I have heard that different water temps can help as well. Some people have a hard time drinking ice cold water, as some tolerate room temp. water alot easier. I havent had my sleeve yet so I cant really say I can relate but I have read alot and watched endless videos
