Me too have had my first appointment and start my nutrition and 6month wait period on the 23. Excited nervous scared it 28 days weight has been going up and down as I'm trying to change my diet in preparation but lately iys going up. I only have 10lbs to loose but it seems so far away.

Exactly what KristenLe said. Use this time to start adopting healthy living habits. Adjusting what you eat - start to journal your food and see where you can make better choices. Start exercising more - slowly and gradually increasing your activity. Also with all the pre-op testing required, you'll be surprised how quickly the 6 months will go! I too was disappointed when I found out I had a 6 month pre-op requirement instead of 3 months. But now that I'm having my 5th appointment next week, I'm glad for the extra time. It's letting me get my head in the game and really make some important changes in my life.

You're right - one day at a time! One other thing - Do you weigh yourself daily? If so, as hard as it will be, you might try switching to weekly weigh-ins so you're not as focused on the weight loss aspect of your new life. ☺️

Hang in there!

I'm finding it so strange that's the route he wants to go. I think after reading the comments I'm going to move forward with the sleeve. Seems the easiest route to go that will better help me reach my goal. Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App
