Recommended Posts

Today I got the call saying I was approved. Shatty part is I have to wait until April 17 because my surgeon is booked until then. Anyone else looking at April as their month? My stats are 31 year old female 250lbs 5'5". Pant size 20. Lowest weight after dieting was 165lbs. I did ivf and hormone treatment for sometime and gained a significant amount of weight. My procedure will be at Princeton hospital in nj by dr chau

I'm hoping to be in April. I'm 38, 5ft 9 inches. I live just notth of Seattle. My high weight was 304 in November. Yesterday I was 276 (yay insurance-required diet !). I wear 1-2x shirts and yesterday wore a pair of size 20 jeans for the first time in months. I just need to do one more NUT appt next week then we'll submit to insurance!

I'm also hoping to be in April. I've done the psych eval, the NUT appt, and 3 months of "monitored weight loss" visits with the nurse practitioner at my surgeons office. I go back this Thursday and that should be everything needed to file with Insurance. I have NO idea how much it will cost me out of pocket, but unless it's crazy high, I will be an April sleever!

I am hoping to have my surgery April 17th, but still wailing to hear from insurance. My paperwork was submitted on 2/15. I had my EKG, all my blood work and tests and I had that test to see how liquid travels. I am feeling a bit anxious, but reading about everyone else on here has been quite comforting. Congrats to you! I am 5"5, weigh 241 and wear a size 16.

Me! I'm scheduled for April 8th in Dallas. My highest weight was around 391 but I've lost about 40 lbs on my own since then. Ideally I'd like to weigh between 150 an 170. That is kind of my goal. I'm 5'3" so I think that'd be a good weight for me after a lifetime of being overweight. :)

      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?
