    I'm three months post op and have not used anything. My scars are fading, but not completely. What's the name oil? I had my 3 month check up today down 33 lbs. had labs done waiting on results, still struggling with 70-80 grams of Protein and 64 ozs. Water. I've finally learned to drink plain water without any crystal light.

    You can do this. Everyone says the first 3 days are the worst.

    Hi Nikki!! Welcome to the group. I'm an Okie and am having to do 3 months of an Atkins-like diet. Most people call it lean n green diet. It's hard. I give everyone major props for having to do any of the supervised diets.

    Ms.brickhouse reacted to kimcox in New to the site....looking forward to gastric sleeve soon.   
    I am new to this site. I have started the journey to gastric sleeve surgery and hope to have surgery before the year is up. My surgeon requires a mandatory weight loss seminar that I have attended, plus a support group meeting which is also marked off the check list. My insurance (BCBS of AL) requires a 6 month weight loss plan(physician controlled) which I completed this month also. I have had a psych consult, and a cardiology consult....which I received clearance. I am just waiting on my last "check in" appointment at the surgeons office so they+ can get all of my paperwork in order and get ready to file for approval. I am 267-270 right now with a BMI of 48-49. I am very nervous about the approval process...I do not know anyone else with the same insurance as me(BCBS of AL PEEHIP)...educators insurance. I wish I could just find someone that has used the insurance to see how long the wait for approval was and if there were any problems. I do know that it pays 100% so I would be a fool not to go ahead with this. I look forward to meeting new people and getting the info I need from the gastric sleeve community! I appreciate any feedback you can give me! Thanks.
