December 2013 Sleevers Come In!



Recommended Posts

I'm Kay. My surgery date is Nov.27 but hoped you'd accept me into your Dec. group. I'm 5' and I weigh 236. I've gone through most of the hoops already. Just one more next Monday when I have a pre-op meeting. I have quite a few concerns but most worried about what I will be able to eat, or drink, when I get home. Hope these questions will be answered at my meeting next week.

Man...our group is so large. Can't wait to take a poll at 6 months out and see how much we will have lost as a group! :D

This is a FANTASTIC idea Blondiee...Can you imagine the numbers we'll see? LOVE IT!

Approval came today from Anthem-- only took them 5 days but seems like forever. The scheduler is a guerrilla about giving out dates so I am waiting to hear when this will take place. Still hoping for December.

I have been reading your posts and want to thank you all for sharing information I am finding enormously helpful. Happy Friday!

Keeping my fingers crossed for you Tarheel79.

Welcome Kay! This is a friendly bunch of people and I don't think we're being super exclusive. Your surgery is only 3 days shy of December.

I'm sure all of your questions will be answered at your pre-op appointment. Take a note pad with all of your questions just in case.

I'm new to this blog. I am finally going to be getting the surgery. The paperwork too so long and now I got my approval from the insurance and on Monday I go in and neet eith the surgeon again. Then Wednesday I meet fir pre-op stuff and start my 2 week liquid diet. Boy idk if I can do 2 weeks on straight liquids. Scared of failure but excited for the start of a new life. I'm 31 yrs old weight as of last week was 317 (biggest yet) I can't wait to back down to 150-160ish. I'm so glad there is a support group of people going through the same thing. I've never had surgery before and so scared something bad is going to happen. Oh ya my surgery date is December 4th 2013. I wish everyone the best of luck in there journey :-)

Welcome to the group, I understand being scared, I've never had surgery either, but everything is going to turn out great. Congratulations

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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
