Oh you'll be fine! I wrote down all my questions cuz I get all mixed up at appointments.

I'm just hoping and praying that an opening will come up for me. .As of now it won't be till January or maybe even later. Did any of you all have your surgery date get moved up? Thanks!

He is definitely the one to thank! Congrats!

Ok great! I thought it l looked bad. Thank you!

Also I didn't mean for that do to like a profanity lol..that's a phase we use around here lol

I really hope that I don't resent the new attention and better treatment. I think I'm going to be ill about the fact that they could have been nice/attentive all along. I am really looking for a"one liner" for the new compliments and especially one for when people ask me "how much have you lost" because under no circumstances will I talk numbers with every Tom dick n Harry. Most people mean well by asking that but I think it's really pretty rude. If anyone has any replies you use to kinda nip that in the bud, lemme know

Oh yes they do!

I hadn't though of the liver still being big after pre-op...but I'm convinced that my stomach is huge too. I could eat so much more than I actually do. I've seen people have their surgeon take a pic of the removed portion.

are you freezing the shakes in a tiny ice cube tray? All great ideas!

I'm following you on this cuz I'm in the same miserable boat....don't get me wrong I'm extremely blessed to have gotten the approval and I know that but I'm going bonkers here..

Prayed for you! !!

how awesome is that! Congrats to you both!

let us know how you're doing!

hey. ..can you explain more about why it would be longer at the end of the year? ?? That is what is happening to me and I completely don't understand. ..approved in Sept but have to wait til January. ..going nuts

how much benefiber? In the beginning

can't wait for that!

You will be just fine! I'm praying for you!

I have to age that these are the issues that I sori about the most too.

going to try to do the same thing. .great idea!

WHAT AN AWESOME THOUGHT YOU BROUGHT TO MIND! IT SHOULD BE MY LAST WINTER BEING FAT AS WELL! WHAT A GREAT FEELING - IF I WEREN'T SO GENEROUS I WOULD HAVE A BON-FIRE AND BURN ALL MY FAT CLOTHES NEXT YEAR!

You rock!

Thanks!

Congrats!!! So happy for you

I am 35..sleep apnea. .hbp...but for some reason my doctor requested an approval date of January 15th when all my requirements were completed in September. .they kinda blamed insurance but insurance said the doctor chooses the date. .the nurse told me he was backed up when I asked them but I'm not sure that's true. . Sad..I worked very hard and did everything by the book only so u could wait another 4 months. ..geeeez

Why do the dates get moved up? Do people cancel or what? Is give anything for mine to get moved up. .approved but not till January. .going nuts
