I guess I should get on the ball and decide which Protein Shakes I'm using.....eek!

QUESTION: For those of you who got your surgery date, WHEN did you get it? I'm asking because I have to do a six month program for my doctor's office-not necessarily for my insurance co and I'm wondering when you actually learn of your surgery date?? I'm in month 5 of 6 and go on January 22nd for my surgery class, meeting with a doctor, an ultrasound and more labs. After that my psych eval is January 27th. I should be learning of my date soon right?

I didn't get my date until everything was completed. Diet, psych, egd, and Drs clearance were all completed before I got a date. I am using isoprene rtd and powder.< /p>

I have completed all of the requirements including submitting my lab work and medical clearance letter from my pcp. I go for my 6th and last weigh-in on the 21st of this month. I haven't received my surgery date yet either. I was told by my nut last month that I will probably be sleeve around mid-February but; I am hoping it will be before then.

Yes, I had to get everything done before they would schedule. They had to have results from all tests and medical clearance first. I got my date the second they received all the results.

I hope to be sleeved in February. I've completed everything, but I have to wait until Jan. 20 to have my paperwork submitted to the insurance company. Hopefully that will only take 5-10 days and then get my surgery date if all goes well with the insurance approval process.

Feb 11 is my 6th month appointment and I have all of my other requirements fulfilled. I have my preop apt scheduled for Jan 29th. So technically I could go anytime after Feb 11th. However I have been told that I won't know when that is going to be until shortly after my preop. Good luck! @@KatieD6982

I'm schedule for February 9th in Maine. It's been a long process but I'm super excited for this surgery!!!

I need to post my before pictures still!

My absolute favorite Protein Shake so far is "Click" Decaf mocha and I mix it with 8oz of milk and 4 oz of Water. SOOOOO good. Seriously good. I drink it for Breakfast every morning!!

      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! 😞
