    I got my appointment set up today to see a Bariatric surgeon. April 12th can't come fast enough. This particular surgeon is in Covington, La. He will not even see a new patient until they have completed a check list. The longest part being a 6 month supervised weight loss program. I am happy to say I'm down 58lbs from just watching my intake and portion control. I've started walking and I hope I can keep that up at least 3 times a week!!! I'm sorry I'm just super excited!!!

    @@KGee88 the only thing that has got me worried is he asked about suicidal thoughts. I didn't want to lie so I told him yes but it had been years since it even crossed my mind. Then he asked about did I make a plan & I told no I didn't make a plan. To be honest if I truly wanted to go that route I wouldn't be trying to get WLS! I have the means but I got too much to live for. Too many goals not to mention grandbabies! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App And good luck on passing your exam!

    So I had my evaluation this morning! I was open and honest. The interviewer said he would recommend me but he doesn't have the final say. It will go to a supervisor and I will know within a week or 2 what their recommendation will be! I will be on pins and needles the entire time I think!!!!

    evy17 replied to mindi melissa's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    My highest weight was 423. But when I started watching what I eat last June I was 412. I'm now 362. It's been a long long 8 months but I'm down 50lbs just by diet. You can do it. Hopefully you are younger and haven't had a hysterectomy to slow down your metabolism & it comes off faster for you. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    evy17 replied to evy17's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    Thanks everyone! I think I'm so worried because I just went through a break up and I'm completely devastated. I cry a lot. Funny thing is I haven't turned to food. Some days I can barely swallow it. I'm doing this for me and only me. She didn't want to me have WLS at all. I guess you can say I have daddy issues too.....that is what has gotten me worried. I know I'm completely sane most of the tIme. Suicide has crossed my mind a million times lately but I do know that isn't the answer. I have the means to do it and yet here I am still breathing. I have too much to live for & I need to be healthy for it. I am ready to make this change. I'm a strong person. Being strong is all I know. I was told this surgery isn't a miracle cure. I know it's not but in my mind I intend to treat it as if it's a miracle cure. My desire to lose weight and to be able to do things I can't currently do out weigh everything else in my life. Thanks everyone for the advice and your stories. I greatly appreciate all the advice. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
