Sorry msk, different Buffalo :-(. I went to the University of Colorado at Boulder. Mascot Buffalo. But it's always nice to remember home. Glad I reminded you of something nice :-)

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! I called today and they just said pending and reminded me that they have 15 days to reply bariatric surgery approvals. I am worried my 10/29 date will be pushed back a week or two. The Dr.'s office said if no response by Friday we will have to postpone. :(

Hopefully you will get your response by then! Wow my doctor would not set a date until the received the letter off approval from insurance I got it faxed to them that's how I ended up getting my date.

I would keep calling and let them know you already have a set date apply some pressure!

Officially I've been working on this since June/July. I'm tired, I just want to get my approval and prepare for surgery.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
