  1. I finished my 6 months req visits now I'm waiting to go sign the papers for my surgery and to get a date, and obviously to get approve from the insurance! But what happens if you gain weight between waiting and seeing the surgeon to get a date? Do they weight you when you go to the pre opt class?
  2. I lost a 6 pounds in a week eating less and drinking 8 bottles of water
  3. Im going to ask my Nut because i feel like he just wants me to go to get more more money
  4. Yes he just tells me come next time smh
  5. I feel like this process has been so long I'm mad because I've seen the psychologist twice already and I feel like he just wants me to keep going back and don't clear me.. No he doesn't see me depressed because i tell him I'm doing better he's delaying my surgery ughh Tuesday its my last weight in hopefully but i honestly feel like giving up
  6. mine went up too hopefully they'll realize we having this surgery because we can't lose weight on our own
  7. Did you gained weight during your 6 months visit? If so did you still get approve ? I have amerigroup they don't require me to lose but I'm afraid I gained last months I was on my period, and I gained this month :/ and on my period too
  8. omg I'm glad you're okay aside from the back pain!! & I used to think it was the epidural that messed up my back but I'm starting to believe it's all this extra weight I have
  9. Hopefully mine it's in sept as well
  10. So I'm finishing my 6months visit next week and with all my appointments August 3rd, I wanted to know if any of you are finishing this month and if so do you have a surgery date or when do you think you'll be having surgery? August or sept
  11. wow that's amazing I'm hoping to have surgery in August or sept and for this back pain to go away I have 140 pounds to lose hope we can lose this weight soon!
  12. Did you guys suffer from extreme back pain before surgery to the point where you can't be standing for more than 20 mins ? If so did it go away after surgery?
  13. I bought one today at a vape store it's a beginner one with the 0 nicotine drops I love it
  14. You mind me asking which vape you have ?
  15. thanks so much I was doing hookahhh and I love my hookahh I was thinking of buying a vape I can't wait till i buy it!!! And I will def use your code thanks
  16. You vape even before surgery? I thought we was suppose to stop smoking two months before I know it was zero nicotine but I thought we couldn't even smoke that
  17. well it's because I was looking forward having surgery in August but I realize I'll prob have surgery in sept I'll be done with my 6months weight management July 24 and I already did all the labs all I'm missing it's the psychologist to clear meIt's a process I'm telling you... Lol... Cause i was supposed to get sleeved in the beginning of july and i just got my date today for August 31 wow at least you have a date already thats a plus
  18. hahahaha did you really say that I bet he/she was laughing maybe I'm just desperate because this process has been too long and I'm tired of being fat yes I did say that! And believe me I know how you feel. I have been overweight for like 25 years. And I am only 46! Over half my life! But look at it this way, we're finally doing something about it! At least we are moving in the right direction! that's right!! Im 26 and I've been curvy my whole life after I got pregnant I gained 100 pounds :/ but like you said we are doing something for our health and soon our life will change for good
  19. hahahaha did you really say that I bet he/she was laughing maybe I'm just desperate because this process has been too long and I'm tired of being fat
  20. yea I guess most people tell me that in order to be successful after surgery I need to be mentally prepared
  21. Yea that's true it wasn't bad talking to him but it was weird hahah, well I'm going to give it a try and see what he says if he doesn't clear me on the next visit im going to ask for another psychologist
  22. well it's because I was looking forward having surgery in August but I realize I'll prob have surgery in sept I'll be done with my 6months weight management July 24 and I already did all the labs all I'm missing it's the psychologist to clear me
  23. I wanted to go to another gynecologist but he didn't have an appointment till mid August that's why I went to him but I will call my NUT tomorrow and speak to her to see what she tells me , idk why hes making it so hard the only thing getting me depressed it's being obese and not healthy
