Smores

Swanson and Campbells make some. I found some on amazon.

I'm so happy that it's over now. I'm very excited for you. God bless.

I have a feeling I will be weighing myself every 5 minutes. LOL.

I'm going through the proses of getting the sleeve. At my meeting last night, they said that they hardly ever do the band anymore. In a meeting with 8 other people, 3 getting the bypass and 5 getting the sleeve, 6 including myself. God bless.

That's true. I have learned a lot from this group. God Bless.

I will say a prayer for you. You got this.

I'm hopping mine goes quick like yours. I just got done with all of my pre appointments now they are sending it all to the insurance. I'm praying I get a quick response as well. I work at a school and would love to get the surgery in early July. That would give me long enough to recover. Prayers for you.

Do you all have kitchen scales? I'm getting a list together as well.

I'll say a prayer for you. I'm so jelly!

I'm so happy for you. I'm looking forward to be where you are at right now. I'm hoping to have my surgery in July. I have most of my appointments out of the way already. The last two will be next week.

I will keep you in my prayers.

Congrats!

I'm praying you have a fast recovery and very little pain. Belly buttons are over rated anyways.

I too had decided not to tell too many people. My BMI is just at 35 and I thought that people would say that I don't need it. But I do have health issues due to my weight. But then I changed my mind and told some of my coworkers. I too work at a school but hopefully will be having the surgery during summer break. I have been going to my pre-sugery appointments and my boss was asking me if I was ok. I then told her what I was doing and she is very supportive about the surgery. I then told a few of the people in my office. I was afraid with all of my doctor appointments that they might think I have cancer or something when I come back thinner.

I did use Contrave and every diet out there. Contrave did not work for me. This is my last hope. I know it won't be easy but I'm ready. I'm hoping to get the sleeve surgery this July if all goes well. Good luck with everything. I will say a prayer for you.

Keep it up. Good job.

Well said.

I heard trying a keto diet. It helps break a stall. God bless.

I hope not. I was hoping to get the surgery in July.

I'm so sorry. Hang in there. Prayers.

It's not a dumb question. I had some of the same issues with my insurance. I have a primary and secondary and the primary required me to have a bmi at 35 or more for the last 5 years. Problem is I have not. My secondary insurance does not require me to be at that bmi for that long. The only reason I'm able to get it with having a bmi at 35 is I have sleep apnea, high cholesterol, stress incontinence and bad hips. I think you only need two. I was worried about this too at the beginning as well. I will pray for you. I hope the insurance will approve you.

My appointment with the psychologist was yesterday. He began by making sure I was aware of the details of the surgery and what is expected of me before and after. Then he asked about my childhood and my relationship with my parents. I then had 371 questions to answer. My favorite was (did I ever want to be a singer or park ranger. )LOL. Of course, everyone wants to be a singer. Other questions was( did I ever hear voices or see people that were not there.) Not anything about exercise.

I guess I said it wrong. They called BCBS and they said they covered the surgery. It's not really a pre approval. I miss spoke. Sorry.

Beautiful.

That's who I have. I'm just in the early stages of my journey. I was pre approved through the insurance but the final approval has not happened yet.
