Struggle/nerves

I'm on my 3rd month out of 6 and I find myself struggling... My surgery will probably be around March or April timeframe. It feels like its so close, but so far away. Is anyone else struggling like I am?

Yeah... I'm doing alright, I'm probably feeling like this because of the holidays. I can't wait for my surgery. I met with my surgeon already and he's awesome! I just feel like I'm never going to get to month 6...

I felt the same way during my 6 months which had to be consecutive so really was 7. definitely use this time well.

Mine is consecutive as well... I don't want any "hiccups". I think I'm worried about screwing this whole thing up. For the last 10 years its been diet after diet and one step forward 3 steps backward. I just worry...

I found out today that I failed my sleep test... I have to go back January 14th for my second test. :/

awwww sorry for this minor setback. I never had to do a sleep study

Waiting has to be the hardest part, Doing another sleep study shouldn't slow anything down but you will probably be put on a C pap machine, and your Doc will want you to use it so as soon as you have the second test and get the machine start using it right away so that if he requires you to have been using it for a certain length of time you already have that time counting along with your six months. Also the sleep apnea diagnosis assists with insurance approval. Wishing you the best and truly understand the waiting and the effect it has on your nerves.
