so today i met with my Bariatric doctor and we went over my food journal..yea not the best but its a work in progress..learn from your mistakes right? so anyway..let me back up and explain somethings..i had started this journey in october with the seminar then November with the consult..then i lost my car and wasnt able to get to appt's so skip to April, got the bloodwork they needed taken and had another appt in May and now the one today..along with another consult with the Psychiatrist (since it had been since November since i saw her)..so my insurance requires a 6 mon study .(I have Anthem blue cross/blue shield of GA) .i was hoping to bypass that since i tech hadnt been there every month for 6 but a combined amount..well when i called the surgeon's office and spoke to the lady that handles the insurance..it has to be consecutive :( so now my 6 month journey will end in October..then we submit to insurance and hopefully get approved and be on my way to the losers bench..

so this is just a kink in my journey..i refuse to give up..

Good luck and hang in there. I hit the three-month mark as reqd by my insurance only to have a required cardiac clearance add two months to my timeline! I was hoping for late July now it looks like my WLS will be in September.

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

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
