I so excited ! I just can not hide it !

Doing my 3 months required my insurance.

I can not gain any weight during this time.

The goal is to lose 1 pound a month. THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE.

Also they said I wont be able to drink soda anymore !

This is a huge life change for me. But I'm ready for it !

anyone else lurking doing their required months by insurance ?

Who will be starting their pre-op diet in december ?

Lets be friends.

I'm hoping to start my journey soon. I attended the initial WLS seminar this past Tuesday and handed in all of my paperwork. I now have to make an appointment with the nurse practitioner which I'll be calling tomorrow to schedule. I too have to do a 3 month program for insurance so I'm hoping to get it started soon.

I've been reading so much online I'm becoming obsessed and just want to get started all ready!

I'm glad to have found this site, I've learned so much!!

Looking forward to meeting new people that understand what I'm going through

Hello, i had surgery 5-27-15. I did 6 weeks on opti- fast, i got 9 boxes left over. The weight loss was slow, the men lose fast. It is just not fair.

Are you still starting your preop diet in December? I just started this whole process. Like you I have to give up soda and Halloween candy was hard. I am still going through some of the tests before seeing the Nutritionist in December. If you would like a friend on this journey, I would love to be one. Carolyn

Hi all I started my journey last month. My insurance requires 6 months but I have started the pre-op testing and have seen the nutritionist. I'm 5'2 and 234 lbs. Starting weight 242.

I have long journey ahead but I'm excited too and happy to start my new healthy life.

Hi Careysgirl. It looks like we are doing this about the same time. I have my last np appointment on the 15th. I still have the 2 nutrition appointments, the EGD and cardio to go. The doctor I go to doesn't have a long preop diet, so I am looking forward to getting this going. Let me know how you are doing. Carolyn
