The psych eval was the easy part for me. You'll do just fine. Good luck!

Looks like my date is 12/11! I have to say that choosing BCBS Federal was the best decision I made! They have been fantastic!

Ok another snag. I have gained weight over the past year. At some time in 2012 I went to my PCP and I weighed 226. My surgical doc appt I weighed 265. Two days later I went to My PCP because I was having headaches. I weighed 257. Come to find out my BP was up and he put me on medication and the headaches have subsided. My next NUT appt I weighed 249 and yesterday at my last NUT appointment I weighed 243. My problem is when I seen my PCP for the headaches they didn't record my weight in the chart. It says I weighed 226. When we submit to insurance I'm sure they will wonder how I lost 40 lbs in two days and then gained nearly 30 back in a week. We have to use that record when we submit because it's the only one with my height listed and my high BP. I don't really know what to do. I am going to try to go to my PCP tomorrow and have them correct the record before we submit.

I would definitely go back to your PCP for the correct information. But the surgical doctor's weight should be the one that counts for 2012. Good luck!

      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?
