Impatiently waiting



Recommended Posts

I called BCBS of Alabama today. It has been 10 days she told me to call back Monday and they will have an answer. I am praying for us both!

I'm going to call Aetna tomorrow and see where I stand. I hate, absolutely hate, the waiting game! My husband is deploying to Afghanistan the end of March and I wanted to be done and healed by the time he left! I'm praying it goes fast.

I got my verbal approval from my surgeon's office! They will call to schedule surgery in a few days when they have the actual piece of paper in their hands. Happy day! Happy day!

It's the same w/ me. I considered WLS a few yrs back and when I shared the news w/ my mom and sisters they tore into and I backed down. I don't plan on letting then know this time, my husband is the only one I'll be able to share with once I get my approval. I'm impatiently waiting also...

      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? 🤷‍♀️
