So here the scoop, im 30 years old my name is michael. The first time i tryed to get sleeve done was last year and was brought to the team as they call it to deny me cause my family doctor kept raising my meds which in turn caused me to have bad freaking out problems. I am no longer on that meds and and better a year later. I have done everything they have asked me as far as the insurance requirments. At one point the pysh pissed me off and he said he wanted to see me again. Well i never made that appointment. After my last Dietitcian vist she said she was going to turn everything over of apporval. I got a call saying that was looking at you file to see if you were ready to move on and i notice you were suppose to have a follow up with the pych, and you need to make that appointment. So i did and he said that since you were once brought to the team there policy is that they have to bring you to the team again. So they had there meeting and i asked that they call me back and let me know if its a go or no. He says that he wants to review things a little bit more, and he give me a call next week and dissucuse it with me, and he wants to let me know that he is actively trying to move things forward with my case...... I kinda feel like he going to say no. The one nurse said that everyone signed off on me and so it sounds like its all in his hands. PLEASE give me your advice on this if you had similar problems as i am. Or maybe im just worryiing to much. Thanks

Hang in there. Sometimes I wonder if they are testing us to see how much we can take. I think that they want to make sure we are mentally strong enough to handle life after the sleeve. Keep thinking postive.

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
