So I already got the appr9val from my insurance company for the surgery but since I have had my depo shit and gained like 10 pounds this month so very nervous to go for my final weight in. Any one experience this. I haven't changed my diet I don't know what's going on

The insurance approval would have been based on what your surgeon provided them. I assume you received a approval letter from the insurance company. I don't believe they need to resubmit a request for approval again.

I gained 4 p ounds but they put me on the pre op diet. I think had I gained more the pre op diet would have been longer or more severe. I had 2 shakes, 2 Snacks and a low carb dinner for the first week. The 2nd week was 5 shakes only all liquid. I think had I gained more weight my diet would have been full liquid longer. Some patients get 3, 4 or 5 weeks of pre op diet. Good luck though, 10 pounds could be hormonal and will fall off quickly on your pre op plan if you have one! God luck!

My last weight in today so not sure yet. I had opted for the depo shot the last 2 months cause my surgeon recommended birth control before hand as a precautionary step. Also to stop taking my oasis and I know the pounds have racked on. But my insurance company already approved the surgery. Just feels like a situation that can't be helped. Just ready for my surgery date already to start this new life of mine

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

      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! 😞
