I have yet to get a response on here & to be honest I'm not sure I'm posting/messaging correctly. Is this app still active?

I felt the same way!!![emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]. I just don't post as much. Regardless of what forum your in, if you ask a question or comment you should get some sort of response. This is SOCIAL media....Right???! So now I'm more of a lurker[emoji102][emoji102][emoji102][emoji102].

I am here. I have no date yet, but was told yesterday that I most likely will be scheduled in August pending completion of the program and approval from insurance. I have to lose 3% to be eligible and go to monthly nutrition classes and a couple of surgeon meetings. I finally feel like I will have the missing tool to be able to lose this weight.

Did you have to take a mental eval? I am not required but I think I want one any way.

Yes, we have to have a behavioral health evaluation as well as a sleep apnea screening which I found out today I failed. this means I have to maintain a strict compliance with a cpap before being allowed surgery.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
