Well, I'm here at the sleep study, its actually pretty nice. An actual full (maybe queen) size bed in a room, kinda looks like a hotel room little smaller, and bathroom is in hall (its in a doctor office) I'm nervous because I haven't slept without my hubby and when I do sleep away from him I don't actually sleep! The doc gave me a 3mg of lunesta to try to help hopeing it will work. Haven't gotten set up yet, soon though. Already little sleepy (but assumeing that's from my monthly visitor and how early I was up today 6ish and not to bed till after midnight) so hopeing this goes well, I know they are putting a cpap machine on me and if I need it will turn it on. This is gonna be a night that's for sure. Anyways hopefully things go great and I get this done so I can move to the next thing lol gl to me and hopefully no sleep apnea! (My bmi is already at 53 and have high blood presure so I'm already set for that kind of approval)

I am also here at my study! Just got set up and ready to go to bed. I am the same way! I have not slept alone in years and hoping I am able to actually sleep!

My BMI is 57 and I also have high blood pressure. I am fairly certain I have sleep apnea though.

Good luck!

To be honest a night away from my extreme snorer boyfriend, and the thrills of a baby would be AWESOME!! He snores so bad, I sometimes have to go sleep on the couch. Ugh....

It was awful. I can't sleep. I may have to come back and do it all over again bc I couldn't stay asleep.

Now I have to go home and deal with 2 babies after a night of maybe, 2 hours total of sleep.< /p>

I'm sorry AB. I slept ok. Got about 5-6 hrs of sleep. Did wake up a few times tossing and turning and the thing they put in my noise that goes over my mouth to monitor breathing that annoyed the crap out of me! Butthe tech said I won't be needing to come back for a second one. And they didn't put the cpap on me so yay no sleep apnea. (didn't say I didn't have out just assuming) just come back the 21st to talk about my results and be one step closer to my surgery.

Well I was worried for nothing. Of the one hour I was asleep I had 58 apneas. I go back tonight for another study with a cpap.

I had trouble sleeping with my at home study. I did it two weeks ago and no answers yet. I don't know how they expect people to sleep with a box thing on your chest and wires getting in the way all night long. It was a rough night for sure.

I hope I can do mine at home, I have a 10 month old. And although he will sleep through the night, I don't want to have to find a babysitter just so I can go sleep lol

      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? 🤷‍♀️
