Anxious now that 6 mos doc visit is up



Recommended Posts

Hey has anyone gotten very anxious towards the end of their 6 months supervised doc visit? It's on Thursday and then next week the sleep study and then it's go time with the insurance. I'm so anxious and excited at the same time. Like I felt when I was little and it was December and it's almost Christmas.

I guess because I know that it's almost time and I'm getting close.

I'm only 3 months into the 6 month diet/exercise. I have had all of my appointments/evaluations. Did an Oxygen study at home last night. Waiting to hear back to see if I need to do the sleep study or not. Where are you from in VA? I just moved to NC 1.5 years ago from Harrisonburg, VA. I would have never even considered WLS if I hadn't moved here. I am still in the "Whatever" mode right now because I know it will still be awhile yet. Just trying to keep myself busy. Good luck to you!

I"m in Richmond area. Good to see another Virginian. Yeah I was in the whatever mode at first and then I got more excited. My 6 month supervised doc visit ended today. Yeah keeping busy eases the anxiousness I've notice. Good luck to you, as well

I'm also in the RVA area and on my last requirement to meet criteria. Good luck! It seems that everytime I goto my PCP for the supervised diet, they're clueless on what I need them to do.

Question!

Your 6-month appts, were they all 30 days apart? I have a few months we went back into that were longer and on random days.

Thanks!

I'm in the last month of my 3 month supervised diet. They'll submit for insurance approval on May 2nd. I do have to have a repeat Endoscopy at the end of April. Surgeon found an ulcerated area in my small intestine and a large hiatal hernia. On my meds now for the ulcer. Hope they work as no surgery for me with an ulcer. I'm trying not to stress too much about that, especially since stress is bad for ulcers! On the plus side, I've lost 27 lbs on my own so far.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
