Miserable At This Weight!!

I am at a family bbq for the 4th, and I am miserable. It's close to 100 and I am 245 lbs. I am determined that for our bbq on the 4th next year I will be ay least 50 lbs lighter, if not more. I should be banded some time in December, and until then I am hot, sticky, sweaty, and miserably fat. I am wy the start of my 6 month diet, but can't truly diet because I am literally 2 lbs away from 40 bmi and so I still have to wear weights to my consultation on the 25th. Today, I am more determined then ever to be banded and be helped to lose weight.

Yes, I snore. I find our the results of my sleep study today. I will post what I find out.

No sleep apnea! I suppose I should be happy, but I'm disappointed in the fact that it makes the journey more complicated or maybe impossible that insurance will pay. I need to call the Bariatric office on Monday. Any creative suggestions?

Was your sleep study an initial one or follow up after weight loss? I need to loose 5-7 pounds to have another sleep study to see if it's resolved but never considered that an insurance wouldn't pay if resolved anxious to hear from you or anyone in who had sleep Alena resolved with weight loss

It was an initial sleep study. You do bring up an interesting point. I hope someone can answer you question. It is amazing how complicated it can be to jump through all of the hoops in order to get healthy!

That's exactly what happened to me. The results said no sleep apnea, just a lot of snoring! Lol. I didn't have any comorbidities so I ended up having to self pay.
