Late June/Early July surgery date
Sunlovercmarie replied to Frostie1975's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am currently in the 6 month supervised as well ... Done in May and hoping for June sleeve. Time seems to be going SO slowly, but I am using it to really wrap my head around making permanent changes. Good luck with the rest of your appointments! -
6 month supervised diet getting frustrated
Sunlovercmarie posted a topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Waiting to apply for insurance approval while completing 6 month supervised diet is becoming very frustrating. I was told to stay within +\- 5 pounds and as a lifetime yo-yo-er this is a struggle. My weight can swing 10-15# in just a couple weeks. What are some things you all have done to remain patient and focused during the 6 month wait? -

Thank you. Gaining before approval is really messing with me. It's a good time to really try and manage emotional/stress eating. I will be so happy when I have all the requirements behind me and have a surgery date. -

Yes my BMI is 36 with hypertension. The 6 month supervised is an insurance requirement. I've debated WLS for over 6 years. It's just frustrating because if I could lose weight and keep it off on my own I would not have considered WLS. Of course the 6 months is used for additional behavior modification to increase post surgical compliance and success ... I get it, I'm just ready for the next chapter. Thanks for the replies.
