I'm scheduled for 8-13! Excited, but then I also found out that I've lost my job effective 8-6 so insurance is only going to only last until November then I'm on my own. Have been checking out the cost of insurance and not sure if it would just be cheaper to pay for the follow up appointments (scheduled for a year out) on my own or buy the insurance!! This is added stress that I don't need right now!! LOL

Hi everyone!!! I just got the call to schedule my pre-admissions testing for next week. It feels so surreal! 8/12 will be here in no time.

Good luck to everyone who has started their pre-op diet!!! Keep pushing!

August here we come.... :-)

So sorry about your job :(....at least you have insurance through the month!! Look into COBRA--it's expensive, but at least you could keep your same coverage. Good luck to you!!

I am soooo hungry right now. I have my pre-op appt tomorrow and get sleeved on August 5th. I hope I can make it. These Protein Drinks are not makin it. I'm good til about 2:00 then I'm hungry.

I'm starting my pre-op diet on Friday and also getting sleeved on the 5th. I know how you feel with the Protein Shakes, I'm gonna need more! Lol! I've tried a few sample shakes and added unsweetened almond milk and it made the shake a bit thicker. I'm also going to try mixing orange with chocolate. Good luck to you :)

Yes Ma'am. I agree with that. I believe it is a health walk every Thursday 7pm at Inglenook Park on 12 mile.

      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?

      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
