I'm July 13th! Counting the days... Would love to stay in touch!

Sleep study for apnea- if you haven't already been tested. Good luck!

Yea!!! I started my requirements in January and am scheduled for July 13th-R&Y too. U have a couple appt left then yea!

Thanks everyone -

I'm pre op July 13th- but of course trying to read everything I can before. I see threads where people get nervous if they haven't lost from one day to the next- how often do you weigh yourself?

I'm looking for a buddy.

I went with my dr advice. He said it was the best option for me. I just want to do this once and many come back to get R&Y after the others failed. Not that they fail for everyone! Just his opinion.

No judgement here! We are all here for one reason or another- just trying to get healthy!

Yea!!!! Congrats!!

I'm going to wait until after surgery and have lost some weight to tell people outside of hr and my boss. When I start dropping weight and they ask- ill tell them but not sharing numbers either. My 9 yr old will keep me on task.

Me too- lets get this party started already!!! I'm hoping the time flies!

My stuff should be through insurance by end of May but my surgeon's next open date is July 13th. Did you sleep why August?

My dr is good about it too- my insurance is not from what I understand- but my dr requires liquid diet the 2weeks before and I should lose about 15-20 then. Does your dr require that? He says it will tell them I'm ready to change my lifestyle which is required to be successful.

Yea for may dates!! How are you doing with the waiting?

Yea!!! How are you?

I'm going to wait until I've lost some to tell work but my friends and family know.

I'm excited and can't believe I'm really doing this! I have about 140 to lose to be ideal- but I'll take 160 or so. Shoot I'll take 180!

Great tips I'll have 2weeks before surgery too. I dread it too but I'll get ready!

I'm on Cigna too- my doc said my initial weight is the one for insurance and not to gain at all before surgery- lose what I can hit no gain per insurance requirements. My 3 month nutritionist plan isn't about weight loss but education about what is to come after. She would love to see some loss but it's more about behavior and relationship with food. I have met w nutritionist 2 and 1 more before surgery. I meet w surgeon fort first time Monday- have follow up w psych. on psychological testing on the 11th then surgeon again hopefully pretty quick again to get surgery date.

That's great!!!

I want one!!! Probably not until June

Happy for you!!!

So happy for you and very encouraging!

Glad to hear your doing well- I hope to as well! Keep it up!!!

I go for my first psyche visit on Monday! Excited!
