I am so so so happy! I just did my last drs visit yesterday and they submitted my paperwork today and I got an approval. I do not have to do the psych evaluation. O I almost forgot surgery date April 12th.

My surgery date is April 12th, I'm on my 5th day of Optifast. Nothing outside of 5 shakes a day, no caffiene, and tons of Water. I wasn't nervous about having surgery until I had my date and now I am. Plus, I'm having my surgery in another city and I'm going alone because we have a toddler and it is just easier for everyone. I don't know if I'll be more worried for surgery or my Husband juggling work and a 2 year old for a week lol.

@happyhealthymama I'm so JEALOUS. I've got a 6yo and a 3yo. I'd LOVE to go alone to the hospital, but I guarantee they'll all be there half the time. ;) I'm trying to bribe my surgeon for an extra day.

I am also on day 5 of my pre op shake diet how are you feeling about it @@happyhealthymama

It's been hard (tempted to cheat every day lol) but it's been worth it so far. I've lost 7lbs since Monday. The first week is always the hardest and the highest weight loss. How are you doing?

Haha, I didn't think of it that way. I will be using my time away to catch up on over 2 years of sleep

What kind of shakes are you guys using and where did you get them? My surgeon doesn't care what I use as long as I hit my Protein count. I start preop diet on 04/05.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
