I so hope that I will be a part of this group, so I am keeping the faith and jumping in. My last step was the psych eval and I did that last week. She said it will take 2 weeks for her to write her report and then I have to read and approve it and she will send it to my surgeon. After that the surgeon's office can submit to insurance!

Hi everyone! This is my first post.. I'm hoping that my surgery is in October. My insurance required the 6 month supervised with a weight loss specialist . I have completed all of the pre-op test that were required by my physician. My last visit with him is on the 18th. I hope to get my date then. I'm so nervous and lately all I can do is think about the surgery and how things will finally change for me!

Same here. That's all I can think about. Good luck.

good for you! I was so excited to get my date but also a little sad because at that time it seemed so far away! I have been a bundle of nerves since June when I got my date!

I think my surgery will happen sometime in October. I have my EGD procedure this Friday, followed by patient education class, dietitian, and physical therapy consult next week (17-18 Sept). Already got the seminar, psych approval and first surgeon visit out of the way. I'm so looking forward to this journey to finally make progress on getting some of this excess weight off. All other methods failed. Just trying to keep my patience knowing the journey will start soon. I've been miserable at this weight along with the medical problems I have, so each day that goes by I know is one day closer to getting the right tool to get the weight off and keep it off.

i am going tonight to the monthly support group meeting my hospital hosts. i've got to ask if i'm going to be in trouble because i'm not losing as much as they told me to during my 3 month preop diet. it's really stressing me out.

i'm upset because i lost control and ate too much last night. this morning the scale was up 4 lbs!!!! so i'm back to being down 6 lbs out of the 14 they wanted.

how is everyone doing on their pre-op weight loss regimens?

      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.

      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.

        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...
