Hello Everyone.

I just had my 2nd Appointment yesterday in Hamilton, New Jersey NJ with

Dr. Yelizaveta Lisa Dobruskin.

My surgery will be in January, 2013.

www.jerseybariatrics.com

I just wanted to introduce myself and hopefully run a diary of happenings during this WLS Journey. I anderstand it will be a life time commitment.

My stats:

I am 40+, African American / Black,

4'11 and 225lbs. Mother of two and recently divorced.

I am not sure if stats are used in terms of comparisons of progress but I will try to remember that my progress is mine alone. I will be successful in this journey. I will try to stay positive. I will hopefully have no regrets and very little to no complications.

The Serenity Prayer is a good inserted here:

Lord grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change;

To change the things I can;

and the Wisdom to know the difference.

--Ah!men--

Woot- Hoot for the January 2013 starters!!!

Has anyone been told to contact your insurance company after the new years to find out if the WLS policies has changed at all?? Anyone have any insight about this??

I had a friend that was told that. They say policies change every year. But she was also told if you were approved already you was covered under the old policy. I was approved in to days with United Heath Care

I just downloaded a countdown app for my big day!!! I hate to waste away the holiday season' date=' but this year couldn't be over fast enough. I'm ready to embark on my new upcoming life![/quote']

OMG. I did the same thing. Lol. Yesterday I was telling my husband I had 80 days to go...and he asked me if I had a countdown app...I was like, " that's A good idea...."

Good luck on your journey. :)

January 15th for me, unless they get a cancellation for this year. I have to pay the deductible, so this year would be about $500 less. I can't believe it! I am new here, but everyone seems so supportive, and it's a comfort knowing that I am not alone! Good luck to all! :)

      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! 😞
