Lucky I have a full 2 week liquid.

Just thought of this, is your procedure inpatient or outpatient?

The issue is my insurance covers with no comorbidities if your BMI is over 40 I'm exactly at 41 right now and apparently at my surgeon's office if you drop too much weight you can be cancelled on the day of

Do you have any comorbidities? And what insurance do you have ? Mine is 41 too . They submitted my paperwork last Wednesday evening and I'm just waiting in so nervous I don't want to get denied

I have Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO and I have a BMI of 41 with obstructive sleep apnea ( it's so bad that they told me I start choking )

I think I'm just worrying because my weight would fluctuate for the six months it would go down then it went up once then back down but my surgeon said I shouldn't really worry

What??? That's ridiculous. Do liquid to shrink liver, but please don't lose weight???

Yeah well at this point I'm kind of used to it because since January I've been having to lose a little but not too much in order to be approved in the first place. So to ensure that I don't drop below 41 I'm only doing liquids for 2 days

      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.
