  1. Thank you! I will be going with Apple vs Fitbit!!!
  2. I think I'm leaning towards the Apple Watch
  3. Hey guys! To my fellow sleevers that already had surgery can you give any advice on what to pack in my hospital bag? Also I can't decide on whether to buy an Apple watch or Fitbit, to keep track any opinions ?! #16DaysandCounting
  4. Ahhhhh how exciting! Good luck [emoji177]
  5. Team April you guys ready!? #NewBeginnings
  6. Had my first surgery dream last night and it wasn't a good one [emoji30] I dreamt that I was in so much pain crying hysterically and couldn't walk! I think it's because I've been doing so much research I fell asleep thinking about it lol anyone else have any dreams?!
  7. It sucked in the beginning because it felt like such a long process but now I can't believe it's only 3 weeks away! I'm so excited & so ready.
  8. 4/24! 23 days & counting!! [emoji1373]
  9. Best of luck on your journey!!
  10. Thank you so much!!!! I made sure to get all the important doctor visits done from the very beginning, I had gotten 3 clearances in the first 2/3 months so they saw I was serious and gave me a date before I completed everything. I have my final apt next week with my surgeon and that's when I find out how long I will be on the pre op diet and if it's going to be all liquid or liquid and low carb. They should be submitting it on Friday hopefully! Then it's just a waiting game. You got your approval from insurance already?
  11. I just finished my last Nut visit. I'm officially done with everything!!! Now time to submit to insurance for approval. Ahhhhhh can't believe I am so so close! Now the nerves have set in just waiting for approval, pray for me guys [emoji24][emoji1374]
  12. I find out my date for pre op diet next week! I have my pre op blood work scheduled for the 13th.
  13. If you find out about any good ones please let me know! I'm going to look into some I saw at Trader Joe's, I've seen people use Swanson brand.
  14. Yes welcome to the 4/24 club!!! 26 days and countinggggg [emoji1373]
  15. The app is called Countdown (blue icon) The background picture I got off of google
  16. I actually think I have to be there at 7, im not sure on the exact time yet. But luckily I only live 15 minutes away from the hospital [emoji1373] I don't see your IG name so just request me!
  17. Anyone else have a countdown going? Ahhh I'm way to excited to start this new life journey! If you have Instagram or snapchat feel free to add me @ lovealwaysrosie so we can support each other! Best of luck to everyone ❣️
  18. From what I was told the whole purpose of the liquid diet is to shrink your liver for surgery. So the the heavier your are the more time they require for the liquid diet before surgery. But honestly it all depends on your bariatric center. Everywhere has different requirements.
  19. Likewise!! Have you completed everything?
  20. Im scheduled for 4/24 also! But we only have one month not two lol
  21. That's how I feel! Like ahhhh it's becoming really real now lol. I wish you the best with everything!
  22. I've had a countdown down going for a while now! I started it 2 months before, so crazy that I only have a month left [emoji24]
  23. I've had a countdown down going for a while now! I started it 2 months before, so crazy that I only have a month left [emoji24]
