@@melva66 I am so happy for you. Now I would love some help from you. I have been battling demons today. My husband (who is behind me 100%) says to me.,.."what if......You're denied? What then?" I'm at my highest weight. My BMI is in range, I have had this issue all my Life and I I have dieted forever with only minimal results. My Insurance approves everyone else who has been through all the hoops. Why should I worry? I need some positive vibes, please. I'm feeling so deflated right now. Please please please send me some positive vibes.

I have had the same thoughts. You just have to try and think positive thoughts about it rather than thinking negatively about it. Know that there is that chance but that you have done everything you can for this all to go through. There's nothing more that you can do and if you were to get denied it wasn't meant for this to be the time. That's what I've been doing!!

well, I went up to the bariatric hosp today and submitted all the required paperwork. They were a bit shocked when they saw I had everything with me. Stuff they were going to instruct me to go get or get appointments to get. Done! Lucky for me I have friends who have been through this recently and coached me. :)

It took awhile to get approved from my insurance company. I was told by them that the holidays were the reason for it taking so long. Keep your head up and stay positive! You've got this!

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
