Approved - Yipee



Recommended Posts

Although with my insurance I wasn't terribly concerned, it is absolutely great to finally hear I have been approved and the surgery date of Jan 25 is a go! So excited and yet so darn anxious all the same. Now just have to get past my 10 day liquid pre op diet then I can tackle the next hurdle! For the first fime in...forever...I'm looking forward to my next weight loss journey. I have read so much and I really think this is the place for me to be. The right time, the right place. Here we go!

Thanks everyone! Even though the docs office felt it was a forgone conclusion, I was still a little nervous it wouldn't happen. Now I get the pleasure of 2 more days of "obese food" then on to my new food life, starting with 10 days of liquids~ Yay! Ok, not yay, but the approval part is still yay!

So awesome!! Congratulations!! Be sure to take your measurements and a bunch of "before" photos as soon as possible -- you are going to want them later!!

Best wishes for your success,

Catherine

Nice pics Catherine! I'm afraid to take the before pics. :( I don't want to see them. Measurements the same thing. I guess I'll do it anyway, and then hide them until I'm looking as good as you!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
