38 BMI and only 75 to lose

[claddagh66 132]

Ratios are pretty close to the same loss believe it or not. I was surprised to see the scores. I'm sure you are good and tired of being poked at and all the hearing that goes with surgery. I wish you luck and I hope this works for you. I'm sure it will. I give you credit to keep on trying????

Hi Nicole. Are you getting bypass also?

I too wanted the sleeve, but my surgeon said due to me already having Gerd, there is a potential to get Barrett's Esopagus, so I agreed to go with the Roux n y. I am waiting for approval.

I wish you luck moebeth! My think is I don't have any symptoms other than what they're saying so I'm really wondering why I can't get the sleeve. Meeting with my doctor in 3 weeks to discuss. Has your doctor turned in all of your things to insurance at this point? Do you have a lot to lose?

I'm on Medicare. I have my support meeting and my dietitian meeting on the 24th and I have my PCP appointment on 1 March and she's going to finish the letters. Then they send it for approval at that time.

I have 100 pounds to lose. I would like to lose 120.

Hiya, my BMI is 38 & I'm 106KG (234lb). I'm having bypass due to Type 2 Diabetes & a cardiac condition.

I've lost 6kg since the start of Jan & my surgery is in 2 days time. I'm so scared!

I'd say your definitely making the right decision for yourself. If you ever need to talk I'm here for you. I know it's very scary. I keep trying to look at the end like a year from now and how good we will feel! Hang in there and message me anytime!????

Hiya,

Thanks for your message. I'm 3 days out and at home resting up. The soreness is going away, but I've been very emotional and thinking wtf have I done. I know the beginning is difficult...I just want to eat normal food again. It's also a hassle crushing all my meds, dissolving some and having to inject a blood thinner twice a day to prevent clots.

I'm sure it will get better and my attitude will improve lol

Oh I'm so glad your on the other side at this point! I'm sure the beginning is extremely difficult. I can't imagine what your feeling. Just know there are a lot of people here who have been thru what your feeling. I will talk with you anytime you need or want to.

I still ask myself is this really what I want. Your going thru such a huge change. You also feel like crap but each day you will get stronger and better and before you know it you'll be telling me how amazing you feel and look! Hang in there. ????
