I know right. I even bought like toddler fork and knife and toddler plates lol so I can get used to portion sizes. I'm doing isagenix 30 day cleanse. 2 Protein shakes a day and healthy meal for supper. And then 2 days a week, for the first and second week are "cleanse days". When you use their juice and supplements. I've done their cleanses a lot. It worked really well for me in the past. I'm going to continue using their shakes and stuff post op because it has a lot of Vitamins and nutrients. However, some doctors say there is too much sugar. But the sugar is natural source and for all the other nutrients it has, it outweighs any other Proteins I have researched. My doctor is on board with it. So that's good haha. Also cleanse days are meant to lower visceral fat which is fat around organs! Like the liver and stomach, which we need haha. It's win win. Not the easiest thing to do but I know it's working. :)

Hey guys I got a surgery date for Feb. 8, 2017. I'll be having surgery in NJ.

Still haven't been approved by insurance yet tho. Very nervous about it actually as I have gained a couple of pounds due to the holidays and scared they might think I'm not serious about surgery . 8 pounds to be exact from the last time they weighed me.

I am 5'5 and weigh 248 now. When the first weighed me I was 240 in November

Really can't wait for the next 3 weeks to fly by and I hope I get approved!!

Good luck my feb. sleevers !!!! I will keep y'all updated .

Feb. 8th also!!

Hello all! Just joined this app. I was told last week the nurse is doing the final look over my paperwork and I will get a date of 4-6 weeks out. So I am somewhere with the first 2 weeks of February. I am so excited for this journey. I am 32 yo from Ohio ????

Paperwork was submitted in early December and was approved in less than two weeks! My date is set for February 16. I'm excited, yet scared! Its been since the late 90's since I've had any type of major surgery. My surgery will be in Birmingham Alabama.

My date is Feb 14th. That's right, Valentine's day! It is tentative pending insurance approval. I have BCBS and they required 6 consecutive month doc visits with weight loss management. I joined weight watchers and had a well documenting doc. Should find out by next week if insurance approves or if I have more hoops to jump through. Fingers crossed!

      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!!

      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
