No shopping for me YET. I got three dress in the back of my closet and moved them to the front of my closet. They're two sizes too small. I've missed them dearly. Now they're the first thing I see when I sit up in bed in the morning. Here I come, red dress!!!

Hi @ Trcyprkr70' date='

I'm having surgery with Dr. Coirin Modesto as well this Friday, June 1st. Good luck to you! :)[/quote']

I wish the best on your journey to becoming a new you. Wish I was going to be a June sleever. How long did you have to wait before hearing an answer from your insurance? Also after you was approved by your insurance how long did you have to wait for a surgery date?

This is great! I bought underwear two sizes smaller thinking that I would need them first before any of my clothes! A "mini goal" outfit is a great idea! I think I will shop this weekend for one. I'll leave it on the hanger and dangle it like a carrot! Thanks for the idea! Come on June..........................

I'm waiting to get my surgery date before I buy something. I saw this hott swimsuit in the mall the other day but I got a feeling that my surgery won't be done early enough to buy it and wear it this summer. Maybe I will buy some jeans and fitted shirt for my goal motivation after I get my date. Actually smaller undies sounds like a good place to start. :-)

I'm June 11th as well...no need to buy any clothes right now...I think I have 3 different sizes in my 2 closets (I've lost and found 100 pounds twice before) plus I dress for comfort, not style.....so I will work with those until people began to complain about them being too big! LOL

I wish the best on your journey to becoming a new you. Wish I was going to be a June sleever. How long did you have to wait before hearing an answer from your insurance? Also after you was approved by your insurance how long did you have to wait for a surgery date?

Hi,

I just saw this so sorry for the late response. My insurance approved me in 7 days, even though the office told me it can take up to 30 days. Then when they called, which was May 7 they wanted book me for May.22nd. Which is not bad at all, but the next mandatory pre op class wasn't until May 30th, which gave me my June 1st date. Have you heard anything yet? Or tried calling?

      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? 🤷‍♀️
