Met with Dr. Fielding today at Nyu. He seems cool and relaxed. I have 3 more weigh ins but will get the band in January. Looking forward to it but nervous about the surgery and healing process.

I'm tentatively scheduled for Jan. 3rd. I did the pre-Bariatric seminar, nutritional eval & consult with my surgeon. I have one more appointment with the psychologist. Once that is all done & my PCP completes my letter of medical necessity, I should be officially approved by my insurance company. I hate that I have to wait three more months, I would like to start this journey now.

Congrats!! You in NY too! Im doing mines at NY Presbyterian, b/c my insurance is going to give me $1,000 if I do it at one their centers. I went for my 1st visit 9/5 and today met with the dietitian and went over my pre op diet plans. So now just have to get my psych evaluation and have 2 more months of dieting to do and then i get my surgery date! I'm so excited and can't wait. Glad I went on my Jamaica trip this month, I just got back and omgosh I wouldn't have went if I just was banded. So much food and drinks. Now I'm ready to start, have to do a trial run of Protein shakes the lady said to see what I like and don't. Start separating my food and drinks. Have to wait at least 30 mins after eating to drink. Good Luck with everything!!!

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
