February Sleevers - how are you doing?
Sleeved 2/24. HW: 301 SW: 277 CW: 257. 20lbs in one month isn't so bad. I stalled at week 3 for a week and a half. I am working out 5-6x a week for 60-90 minutes and eating around 500-600 calories a day. I average 60g of Protein a day. I need to work on getting my fluids in though!

Women Only!
I got mine the day of surgery after not having it for months. It was horrrrrrrible the first week and a half. I am still bleeding a month later but its light.

Weight loss has stalled
I am going through the 3 week stall right now too! The scale hasn't moved in almost a week now. Its frustrating but I know its normal.

When did you return to normal daily activities?
I am 8 days post op today and pretty much back to normal. I do get a little tired by the end of the day though between two kids and working full time, but its manageable.

Stupid snow!
I am in the same boat! I have my pre-registration appointment tomorrow at the hospital and we have had ice all week. Hopefully the roads are clear tomorrow morning!

Just got my approval letter and have a question
My surgeon said a liver biopsy is normally done while they are in there as a routine test. My approval called for a liver biopsy and "whatever necessary items" just to give them wiggle room if they get in there and need to stitch something or do something else.

I am getting sleeved 2/24! I have to lose 5lbs and decided to put myself on a liquid diet to make sure I lose it. My surgeon does not require a pre-op liquid diet.

2 Years of Weight Document History
I skipped a year for mine and was approved, I submitted weights from 2012 and 2014.

QQ for those with a 90 day supervised weight loss
Yeah it was a total of 4 appointments. The first one was the beginning where we discussed my diet/exercise plans and goals, one at 30 days, one at 60 days, and one at 90 days.

Did doing Weight Watchers eliminate your waiting period (Cigna)?
I had to do WW while checking in with my PCP once a month to have it approved. He filled out a form each visit discussing what I was doing diet and exercise wise and what we discussed.

Hope you all get answers soon! I am still waiting on a date. I go next week for labs, Feb 6th for a EGD, and then the week after that is my final consult and I will get a date. I hate being in somewhat limbo!
