All submitted waiting on approval!

So my journey has gone pretty quick and according to the lady who handles insurance submittal and such, she believes I should be scheduling in Mid to late August! I'm sooo excited and anxious to get this going. First appointment was 5/28 and after reading some threads I feel blessed to have my stuff done and submitted. I am though nervous they'll deny me... Although I fit the criteria needed.

So while awaiting the approval (being positive!) I've tried the powders and can I just say... YUCK! The pre-made shakes are ok, still don't have a flavor I like though. Any suggestions? Brands and such? What Protein bars are good?

Good Luck to everyone on this amazing journey and congrats to those who have conquered their goals ;)

Congratulations! That's awesome :) I hope I'm as successful!! :)

I've been on a stall tho :(

But I'm trying to stay positive. I know the weight will start to fall off again. Hopefully sooner than later. I go to the gym 5 days a week. It's hard work but it is so worth it

A lot of people stall on and off. I'm sure it will start dropping again soon. I can see where that would be kinda a downside. How often do you weigh yourself?

Lol I'm obsessed with weighing myself. And I know I shouldn't be but I just want to see that I have broken passed the stall so I weigh daily... But once I break this stall I'm hoping I can go to weighing once a week lol

I have a feeling I'm gonna be the same way! I weighed myself yesterday and then again today and the scale said I'm down 4lbs. I wore the same thing so it wasn't a difference in clothes. Maybe water weight... Being in Vegas that can happen lol

I'll be in Vegas at the end of August! I love that place haha

That's awesome! Where ya staying? I've lived here almost all my life. Since I was five and I'm 28 now.

Vegas is nice for the 24 hourness. Where are you from?

I'm from California... Me and my family are gamblers! And my cousin has a time share out there so I'm not sure where we are staying... But I'm so excited

I'm a gambler too! In fact it's probably as bad a habit as food is for me! Lol

My grandparents have a timeshare out here. They're really nice some of them. I was born in California and lived there till I was 5. My aunt still lives in Newbury Park. I'm from Thousand Oaks.

I miss it, even though it's been so long. I spent a lot of my 16-17 year out there with my cousins.

We should meet up while I'm out there!! We both love to gamble!
