So, I'm 10 weeks post op and have lost 65 pounds (including preop diet). I have 40 more pounds until I'm at goal. I'm concerned though because I have absolutely no desire to eat. I have to force myself to eat during the day. I eat 1 (or 2 at the most) 5 oz fage yogurt cups, a piece of cheese and force a Protein Shake. Is this normal or should I call my doctor? Thanks

I had that "pulling" feeling for 5 weeks after my surgery. I'm not sure what it was. I think it may just be part of the healing process or from doing too much, but wanted to let you know mine quit after 5 weeks.

I'd say, listen to your body. If you're sore, slow down, if no troubles, keep at it! Nobody knows better than you!! I'm impressed though!

I got one and the clinic also received an approval in the mail.

I have UHC choice plus. 1 week for verbal okay, another week to get the "official" approval in the mail.

I'm curious also. My fiancé hasn't been supportive of my decision either. He's not overweight. I've put on about 100 since having two kids and becoming a stay home mom. In 2013 I finally made the decision that I'm putting myself first for a change. Don't get me wrong, I love my kids and all, but haven't taken care of "me" in almost 8 years. Things are changing for the better for me. I won't let myself down or be put last anymore. I'm nervous about what this surgery will do to our relationship. I figure whatever happens, happens. I'm not going to let myself sink any further than I have over the past several years. Getting happier and healthier is the best thing for myself and my kids, even if it means I do it alone. I want to set a better example for my kids!

I'm right there with you! Got my approval letter in the mail yesterday, now waiting for a date! Excited! Good luck to you!

I got my verbal approval from my surgeon's office! They will call to schedule surgery in a few days when they have the actual piece of paper in their hands. Happy day! Happy day!

I'm waiting too. My surgeon sent my paperwork on Tuesday. These days are long!

Yay!!!

You look awesome! Fantastic job!!

Funny thing is Abby is just my screen name. Kelly Ann is my real name! Why I read your post! ????

My papers will be submitted tomorrow! The doc says it takes about a week. I'm cautiously optimistic. I've been told two different things regarding my insurance requirements (6 month diet), so we will see what happens. Keeping my fingers crossed too!
-
Yay! I'm hoping to get a date near there. I have my last appointment on Jan 28th, then wait for insurance approval. Hoping first part of March! Good luck!
