Since January when I started this process I have a been great about managing my food tracking and killing these weigh ins. Since my last appointment I have gained almost 3 lbs from stress eating...I call Aetna everyday and it does not help that every one on here that was waiting with me has been approved. I hope I get the answer soon on day 8 of the wait. I cant take my mind off of it....

I know! waiting is the worst! Mine was only a couple of days but that was still too long as far as I was concerned......I would have gone nuts and probably cussed out a few people if mine had taken 8 days or longer. :angry:

Hang in there!!!

Waiting sucks.....but get that "stress eating" under control now.....or you'll be doing the same thing later on for whatever reason presents itself on any given day.

There is no such thing as comfort food.

Go walk some laps around the neighborhood when you are stressed.....or do some situps or pushups..........

Thank you guys but it's a process I've been in great control up until the last two weeks but my eating habits aren't going to fix themselves overnight

I think a lot of The Hunger is coming from my increased amount of activity because exercise and definitely makes me hungry more often the only difference between now and before I submit to insurance is I'm choosing Foods that are low in Protein and high in carbs or sugar but I'm in the gym Faithfully and I'm going to keep calling Aetna everyday

Hang in there. You have made it this far. Try not to let the nerves and anxiety of the wait take you off course! It is a process and you should be proud of yourself.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
