My 6 months pre-op starts tomorrow!

Hi everyone, I have a full day scheduled tomorrow at the Beaumont Weight Control Center in SCS Michigan! I see the Weight Control physician, the NUT, the Exercise Physiologist, and the Phycologist. This is my first of 6 month appointments, putting me at my surgery date in late February, early March! I'm so very excited to learn all I can about this awesome second chance at life I am getting. A small part of me wishes I didn't have to go thru the 6 month insurance required treatment but the biggest part of me is so happy and excited to learn how to live with the sleeve and all the new journeys that await me.

I'd LOVE a buddy who is on the same timeline as I am or anyone that would share their journey. Wish me luck!

Time will go by faster once you're actively involved in the process. It'll fly by before you know it. Congrats!

I go to the seminar next week so maybe we will be close on times. Would be nice. Add me if you would like ????

Hi! I've been going through Beaumont, too (Troy). My surgery is Dec14 at RO. The six months seems so long, but you will learn so much and really make some great changes that will help you succeed in the long run! So happy for us all!!!

All went great today! They even got the cardiac clearance from my cardiologist (I have Hypertrophic Cardio Myopathy). I am overwhelmed with all nutritional info they gave me. It will be a busy weekend for me reading up on everything. 1 month visit down, 5 more months to go! I'm so excited for this journey!

my last 6 month class is in beginning of february and i'm learning alot from my nutritionist. the first month she focused on protein the second on exercise i can't wait for the third month i'm learning so much about my self and about what healthy foods i like and dont like

I am in my 5th month. Now we are just waiting for approval from the insurance and my surgery date. The waiting is what's nerve wracking.
