Congratulations..... getting approved was the toughest part of my journey thus far. I am nearly nine months out and enjoying the benefits of my struggle with the insurance company.. Life is good and was well worth the effort for this healthier, , happier life...

Enjoy your rebirth on the 27th

Congrats! How long did it take you to hear from the insurance and what insurance do you have? Mine was submitted this past Tuesday. The 27th will be here in a blink of an eye!

I completed all my pre-reqs, I started this whole process in July. My insurance changed their policy to do a six-month nutrition and doctor visit, but since I had all my requirements met they bumped me up a month! I am glad to keep contact with you! I am 42 and weigh 265 and am 5'5

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
