Ms. Nunya

I'm going through insurance with a BMI under 40. I'm not telling anyone but my immediate family, who is supportive of my decision.

I'm not telling my boss crap. He is a real "motor mouth!" I don't even know how he was ever promoted to supervise anyone. If he knows, the world will know. I'll just have my FLMA papers and short term disability papers in order. All he will know is that I'm out and now I'm back. Period.

I'm hoping to have an early August date. I should know after my stress test.

Praying all goes well.

Down 20lbs surgery on 9/24/15

SW: 180, BMI 29
CW: 125 BMI 22.9
Just passed the 6 month post Op mark Oct 1. I went from a size 16 when I started this journey and am now a size 4.I am healthier, happier, and more confident in my appearance than I have ever been in my life.

I've read some great things about both Drs. Nicholson and Carlton. I'll be in Dallas for an appointment with Dr. Carlton next month.

I went home the same day. So far so good. No gas. No nausea. I've been walking around the house and drinking liquid. I think I will stop pain meds tomorrow. On a 1-10 scale my pain is at a 2. I feel so blessed right now.

hello my sisters in Christ; please pray that I can be patient and that God will see to it that THIS SURGERY will be approved for me to have. I know it is in Gods will that that this could only happen for me. I am just starting this journey and hope to be ready set and go by Jan . I hope all goes well. I couldn't have sped this up at all since Insurance is requiring the wait of time. Has anyone else had to wait too? Bless you all

Finally getting to closer. Got INS approval today. Pre op visit next Thursday. Come on surgery date! Lol/ by the way, gonna be an October sleeved but always a September sleeved girl! ????

@@byebyefat Feel better soon. Glad everything went well. I'm next week. Ahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!

I think because I'm "new fat," I guilty for doing this because this has not been a life long struggle for me. But you know what... New fat or life long fat, I'm struggling so I'm moving forward towards getting things back on track! Only one week to go now.
Good luck! Keep us posted when you can.

I'm nervous too. I'm just praying that all goes well for us all.

Update : Well yesterday first my sugery got postponed for hours because of a Emergency, then finally it was my turn to get surgery, I was so nervous yet anxious, so I pray and pray and that gave me some comfort then As soon as I got put to sleep, It felt like I opened my eyes and the surgery was over, the pain I was in yesterday was HELL, yup pure HELL , I had 5 kids natural and that pain yesterday was WORST, I couldn't talk, drink or walk, the meds weren't helping but honestly as time passed the easier it got, I was in a 9 in pain after the surgery by evening I was a 4 and this morning , a 2, I been walking and sipping and the dr said , he's going check me his next rounds and if I been drinking my fluids, I will get the ok to leave today, I have no gas pains and I have no regrets and thank you everyone for the prayers and for checking on me , best of luck to everyone and hope everyone has a speedy recovery
