My 6 months pre-op starts tomorrow!



Recommended Posts

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!

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!

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.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
