Hi everyone, I've been booked in on 4 July. I'm in Sydney Australia. You poor patients in the USA have to jump through SO many hoops! Happy to chat and thanks for creating the topic :)

Good luck! I self-payed, so not dealing with insurance has been a blessing...well, other than writing that check. That hurt.

Hi my last weigh in will be June 29th. They will send over all the insurance papers after my 5th visit June 1st. this way the insurance company will already have reviewed everything when they receive my last weigh in. My tentative surg. date will be July 14th. I'm getting both excited and nervous.

I will have the Facebook switched from secret to closed for a few hours today for anyone who wants to join. I am going to switch it back to secret after that to respect the privacy of the members so the link will only work a little while.

Hey All, I have my last dietician appointment this Thursday. Then they will submit to insurance, so it looks like I will have a June/July date.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
