  1. Im getting ready to head out to my psych eval....don't know why my stomach is in knots. Maybe its bc I don't like talking about mysekf or maybe its the thought that I am paying someone to actually judge me...lol Here goes nothin!
  2. Ice chips Hang in there!
  3. Psych Eval is tomorrow (18th) Upper GI, Labs, & EKG on Thurs (19th) Nutrition Eval & Pulmonary Eval on July 26th....the submitting for approval. Feels so good to finally be getting somewhere....so excited!!!
  4. Thanks! Good luck tomorrow
  5. Its crazy. I mean I certainly understand I am not the only patient. But one returned phone call or email is not unreasonable to expect. I will have all my test done by the 26th of July and was told I would have an approval answer and date within 72hours
  6. None of the dr.s on the list I was given "specialize" in weightloss. I was told they just have to provide specific testing. Goes to show the different requirements different Dr's have
  7. Love, Love, Love!!!! Love your attitude, Love your response, & Love your confidence!!! You go girl!
  8. Proof that you really have to be your own advocate. So I have been waiting to get all of my preop testing scheduled and placed several calls to my surgeons office without a response. Nothing scheduled. So today I got online looked up all the places I needed appointments at. I called each one, explained what I needed and now I have everything scheduled within the next two weeks. If I had not been proactive about getting everything scheduled it would likely be Sept/Oct before my appointments were scheduled.
  9. Gotta love an awesome sense of humor!
  10. Welcome and congrats on your weight loss thus for. I agree with dstollery maybe its time to see a therapist. Food issues can go deep & you have to get to the root. Also, exhaust all protien options! You have to get it in!
  11. Good luck!!!!!!! Can't wait to hear an update!
  12. Cant wait to start using! Once i am post op and get clearance that is....so excited
  13. Got it downloaded cant wait to get started. I live in FL so totally know about the heat. Miserable! I only wore long sleeves like a week this past winter. In shorts on Christmas! Its crazy!
  14. Just downloaded and Im mommyhand there too!
  15. So cool....just means its meant to be! Good luck & keep us posted :-)
  16. I'm kinda hoping the same thing. Im still preop. But I was hoping surgery and exercise would improve my sleep.
  17. Can your regular counselor do the eval?
  18. I have no energy bad!!! But I also have insomnia bad...lol
