My surgeon said he is submitting the request for surgery. Keeping my fingers crossed Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm getting so frustrated. I've been to the surgeon, nutritionist and exercise therapist 3 times. I'm starting to wonder if I'll ever get a surgery date My insurance is Triwest through the military. Starting to get upset. I'm waiting to have gastric bypass.

My local hospital has a pool and certain times they have bariatric patients. Pre and post op. I'm calling them to find out the schedule. Still don't know when surgery will be. I have tricare and it's taking forever. Getting frustrated. I was going to the gym until a few airmen (military base) start laughing at the "fat girl"

You all have awesome responses. Thank you Last night I was shocked. I bought Biotin pills to start taking now before my surgery. My husband asked what they were and I told him. I told him I could lose some hair (I have VERY thick hair) He asked me if I'm worried about the hair and I told him "not as much as I'm worried about my diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea and high cholesterol" His response was "that is true, your health is more important" Maybe he is FINALLY starting to see my side of this surgery.

Thank you all so much for your input. It just hurts when I hear that I'm taking the "easy way out" Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Has anyone not received support from friends or family? My friend said I don't need the surgery and that all I had to do is go on a diet and exercise. I wish it was that easy I have 3 sons and 2 of them are totally against the surgery, my husband isn't too thrilled either. I feel as if I don't have any support. Really frustrating. Was wondering if anybody else had this same problem Also, I posted in the wrong forum. I'm having the gastric bypass. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Wow. We sound alike height and weight. I'm 5'5 and 232. Seeing your results makes me so anxious to have my surgery. Although I have a few months I still can't wait. @goplay94124 thank you for posting your story. It gives me hope. You look amazing Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
