Thank you. I started in July, I had to do the six month with the dietitian my final appointment with the dietitian was on December 5th. But once UHC approved me it was on December 31st. So now my doctor (Jonathan Taylor) was out of the office last week and this week all booked up so my appt with him is on Jan 16th. I was hoping to have the surgery in December but Now I just want it soon so I can be healthy and confident again :)

What's been you're experiences with the healing of yourincisions? I know we are more prone to getting keloids and just wanted to know if anyone had any ugly scaring.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
