September here I come!



Recommended Posts

I hear you. Now, I'm a nervous wreck because I don't know if insurance will cover me? Have to wait until August after my last RD visit to submit my case to insurance and then wait to see what the verdict is! But, yeah, I want this done yesterday!

I hope my surgery is in September. My final medically supervised diet appointment is the end of August and from what I hear, my insurance is pretty quick at approvals. I've completed all other requirements and my psyc appointment Aug 5th. I really hope the surgery happens the middle or end of September. :) My surgeon said as soon as we have insurance approval I will be put on the schedule for surgery pretty quick! I'm starting to get nervous/anxious but I made myself a list of all the reasons why I'm doing this and I have to keep reminding myself of these things.

I just got my date today and it is September 10th. I was hoping to do it in August but I had to work around work so September it is. I've been doing all the insurance hoops since January so an extra few weeks is okay. The reality is hitting me now so I'm pretty much a ball of nerves and self doubt right now.

I have September 19 in Tijuana Mexico with Dr. Louisianna Valenzuela. I am super excited. It is has been a long, tiresome road and I am so happy to be able to have this gift. A great tool to help me be the healthy person that has been waiting to come out. I hope to meet some of the other sleevers in Mexico. Can't wait to see everyone's pictures and hear your stories.

      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.

      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! 😞
