Recommended Posts

Even if I don't reach "smoking hot", I'll settle for medium hot! Still will be quite a difference from the me now! LOL Thanks LOVE! Sesa, I don't think fantasies are bad at all! We want to have a goal in our head of what we want to achieve to help get us there! Fantasize on my friend! :)

Just think you all will be smoking hot this summer

Is it wrong to say I kinda fantasize about this being a real possibility this summer? I want to wear a bathing suit that doesn't have a skirt on it!

@@L.o.v.e Thanks LOVE! Day two is almost done with! Just enjoying a bowl of cream of potato Soup that has been whipped to a full cream! Kinda glad to be going thru this right now. The warm Soups are a comfort on these frigid days! Couldn't imagine doing them in hot, humid days!

A lot of folks say after the 3rd day it gets easier. Your almost to day three hang in there you will make it.

I think walking girl is four! You,me, Mimisan and Walking Girl. However I am on so many threads I may be confused as I haven't seen Mimisan posting in quite a while. I don't even remember if she is a part of this thread or not. But I thought her surgery date was also Jan 26th.

It's not wrong it's perfectly fine and I think you should get the one you want and hang it up where you can see it so whenever you feel weak your goal is right there.

Hello again everyone.

Saw my doc today. He said we need to do all the bloodwork to see what else besides chronic knee pains I have. Tomorrow I go for sonogram and blood. This is the one time I hope that my lipids or my blood sugar are up.

Tuesday I meet the NUT and then they submit. I'm getting very very nervous here. If I don't get approved I can't afford the surgery. I'm hoping for the best!

I just got the call yesterday that I was approved by BCBSIL! (They initially denied me in December.) Official surgery date not yet set but office said it would be end of Feb or beginning of March. I need a cardio clearance appt date and then they will schedule my surgery date. My surgeon requires a 2 week full liquid pre-op diet.

Excited and a bit overwhelmed.

Hello,

My insurance required 90 days and all these test and weight management appointments. I used a group in NJ and they had everything right there. I'm done with everything my date has been set for 3 months and now I'm have my sleeve February 1, 2016. My Birthday is on the 10 so happy birthday to me. Currently on my doctors pre op diet which consist of Soup with nothing in them, broths, yogurt, ice pops, fish, Water and Protein Shakes. It's hard I can't lie, but I'm making it.

i meet with my Internal Medicine Dr. on the 28th of Jan and hoping to get referred to surgeon at that time. My question is after reading everyone's posts. I was never instructed to lose any specific weight nor was i monitored to be weighed in all the time. I guess i'm confused to what is required of me. I just saw a Nutricianist and physical therapy took a few information seminars and that was it. I guess each insurance requirements are different. It has been 6 months. I don't really know what to expect now? any ideas?

Yes. Every insurance is different. To prevent further confusion I recommend you call you insurance and see what their requirements as they vary so much between insurances.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
