cjenkins74 reacted to fezik23 in I feel so much better already
I figure I've lost close to one third of my excess weight, which is fine. But for the first time in many many years I feel hopeful. I'm very grateful that I was able to have this surgery. I've received some dumb feedback--like the "friend" who told me she doesn't "believe in stomach surgery," as if it were some kind of religion. Who cares what she believes in. I'm beginning to believe that I'm going to start feeling good again, as in good about myself, stronger, healthier, and at peace.

cjenkins74 reacted to playlikeworldchamps in So disheartened and defeated.
A stall is no weight loss for 3-4 weeks not 9 pounds. In fact month 2 and beyond 9 is fantastic!
As the others said 600 cals too low at 2 months. Should be at least 800 and work up to 1200 by 6 months especially if you are working out. I lost all my weight on 800 cals month 2-4 and 1300 cals from month 5 onward. I lost 135 pounds in 17 months. I started at 315. If it takes you 17 months to lose 135 more pounds would you say oh never mind it's not worth it. I don't think so. Remember this is not a sprint or a marathon. The longer it takes the longer you will practice new habits that will endure for a lifetime. The real goal of WLS is keeping it off not getting it off.

cjenkins74 reacted to S(he) be(lie)ve(d) in 6 month medically supervised diet policy changes?!?!?!?!
Hi! I am 4 1/2 months into the supervised diet. There was recently a policy change regarding the sleeve with my insurance. So, I called to verify what I was reading. The rep went over it with a 2 supervisors and called me back a few days later. I was told that the sleeve DOES NOT require a supervised diet now and to go ahead and submit all my info, including what I have completed with the diet of 4 1/2 months!!!!! I hope they are right! Everything is being put together to submit. Oh my gosh! I AM SO EXCITED!!!!!!
