So excited , today I got labs completed and the Pulmonary Dr. done. Best part is I do not have to do the sleep apnea test again. I have the cardiologist and psychologist left.

Hey, I just noticed that our surgery dates are on the same day!

Are you self-pay? I ask because I had to get the labs and psych test done for the insurance approval, which they had to have before they'd even think about scheduling me.

They scheduled my surgery even though I'm waiting on the sleep study results and the psychologist evaluation. I got to choose the date and all. I guess they figure they can always reschedule if the need arises.

I also wanted to squeeze surgery in over spring break but as it turned out my doctors were out of town and I couldn't get approval in time anyway. I figure it was all a good thing anyway because the week off probably wouldn't have been enough time. Now with my June 13th date I'll have all summer to recoup before returning to my lovely 8th graders????

I'm psyched to go back after summer break and hopefully be somewhat smaller - although I know it will only be a couple months out. Do you think eating will be easier at home or when we go back to school?

I completely understand what you mean! I've said to a few friends at work that I'm looking into weight loss options and even surgeries because I want to lose weight but nothing else. They don't know that's it's all ready to go. I said to my husband that I look forward to taking out my winter clothes and bringing them to the consignment shop.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
