Got my date yesterday. I'm scheduled for August 14th as long as insurance approves my weights. Final weigh on Aug 3rd, then wait for approval. Keeping my fingers crossed. If they make me wait until Sept it will really screw me up.

I had my Endo yesterday (Friday) and found a haital hernia which my surgeon said he can fix during surgery. I have my very last class on July 15th..... so since the Endo is done, I'm awaiting approval and a surgery date!!!!!

My surgery just scheduled for August 10. I wasn't required to have endo but I had to do a barium swallow where they check for any hernia's etc...I am in Texas. The only other test my surgeon had me take was a CT scan, both parents passed from pancreatic cancer so she ordered a screening for me just to make sure all is well before this major VSG surgery. Best of luck to all, August will be here quick:-)

I'm APPROVED!! *happy dance* I don't have a date scheduled yet, and I probably won't know for another week, but approval was the big hurdle!

I just found out I have yet another hoop to jump through. Now I need a surgical clearance from an Internal Medicine doctor before they will schedule me. My doc IS an internal medicine doctor, but of course she's on vacation until July 15. We live 300 miles away from most major medical services, so it looks like I will have to go out of town to get it done. AAGH!

      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.
