PCOSSUCKS

I care! I’ll add that in just a bit.

It'll go by quicker than you think!

50 days till my last weigh in and 61 till my surgical consult to submit paperwork....lol (not anxious at all)

🙋🏼‍♀️ day 5 for me. Surgery next Thursday

It allowed me to add my surgery type.

You shouldn't need to download anything or have anything installed as that's the benefit of it being on Google, it's an open document. Weird.

I feel like Im never gonna finish the process....

Congrats on your date Ylime!

You will!! Hang in there, it seems like it takes forever and then the next thing you know you are scheduled.

You'll get there!!!

And I love it!

But we're all here for you!

soooooo having a date and having all prerequisites complete is different than actually getting the insurance approval in the mail!!!!! yikesers! its really y'all!!!!!!!! may 31...great way to end may!

IM SO HANGRY! Lmao I’m going into day 5 tomorrow...my date is the 31st(I feel like people have seen this from me multiple times on other threads) I know this will be sooooo worth it! I too have PCOS and cannot wait to feel normal again! I have felt so uncomfortable in my own skin for 10+ years...like I want to just claw my way out....at first when my endocrinologist suggested Bariatric surgery I was super offended...I cried when I got in my car that day. After I collected myself after a month or so I googled it. At that point I felt like God had opened a door for me to get myself back! Not just me getting me back but my poor husband [emoji23] for multiple reasons...and my kids....nothing worse than raising teens and mouthy preteens with crazed hormonal mood swings! My husband is deployed and won’t be back until September, I CANNOT wait for him to come home to the new(old) me!

Lmfa that is soooo funny

As gross as swallowing may sound to me (no offense and no judgment) I hear its very high in protein! So you may be able to supplement your Protein intake that way : )

I did it before a week. I dong swallow never did yuck!

While I’m brand new to this journey, I want to be as supportive as possible to those of whom are on the same road but will just get to the destination before me. My first surg consult is 5/30 but I’ve already confirmed that the surgery and all associates procedures are covered (I work for my insurance company) I’m super excited

And the word was HUGS although you can feel tree top🌴 high about yourself if you want!💕&🌸🌺 Love

Keep on girls, your Finish Line is now in sight!

Day 9 on a similar 2 week liquid diet for surgery on the 23rd. Down 9 pounds. Days 3,4 and 5 were the hardest for me. Hang in there.

I had a feeling the NP was incorrect. I’m going to call the surgeons office to confirm. Amazing how much mis- information there is out there about WLS.

When i was sleeved 6+ years ago, all the info/stats weren't in on the sleeve.
since i didn't have much/any gerd in my "past" life - surgeon said sleeve
would be a good option for me. As others have said, bypass is the way to
go if you have gerd/reflux problems.
Knowledge is Power!!
good luck

My surgeon suggested bypass bc if that. And to be honest, I have seen more and more post of sleeve to bypass posts lately....so anyway my point is I’m having bypass and not sleeve bc of the GERD issue

Gotcha! Hope that gets better!
