I’m so excited... I went for my last visit to the nutritionist today and after loosing 9 1/2lbs in the past two weeks I’ve been cleared and all the pre testing papers are being submitted for a surgery date. I can’t wait. Any idea how long this process takes? (Medicate/united Healthcare insurance). I’m so excited for this journey!!!!!!!

So I got home on Wednesday evening (and surgery was Tuesday). All things considered I'm doing very well. I'm still pretty sore, but I'm able to walk around the house and a bit outside. I'm just having a hard time getting my fluids in, but today I came very close, and even got in most of my vitamins! I am on a liquid diet until the 26th, then after that appt I can start in on pureed foods... which is good, because I currently have about zero interest in solid foods!
Thank you guys all for the support, I've been thinking about you!

I had Medicare through UHC and was approved the same day! They didn't waste time. However, my Dr office was slow and I waited 2 months, 1 week to have my surgery. Good luck!

Hi. If some of you guys are afraid of dealing with emotions before and after surgery there is this really good book called The Weight Loss Surgery Coping Companion: A Practical Guide For Coping With Post-Surgery Emotions By Tanie Miller Kabala, Ph. D
Hope you guys get a chance to buy and read this book.

I'm Bipolar 2 and was cleared - my surgery is Aug. 5th. So long as you're steady and well-educated on the post-surgical risks, you should be fine.

And it does work, I used to be a real Sweet-Toother, made great cakes , Cookies and pies, had to taste-test each to make sure they were fit for human consumption, after all. Now I have NO DESIRE, in truth the very thought repulses ME. Who would have thought that? Not me if you had asked me a year ago. And now I am 9 months past and down 120 pounds, getting close to leaving Plus Sizes forever and I started out a BIG GIRL! But Big MAMA has left the building and a REBORN CUTIE-PIE has arrived, and I have found "MYSELF" under my Fat Shell and now the World🌏can see it too!

Tha,ks Debra, we have a lot of sisters in the outside world. And my fur babies do brighten my daily life!

I need to find me some of those containers
