Hi everyone! I am a “newbie” here, and I’m also new to the *Wonderful World of Weight-loss Surgery*. I started my process in November, my insurance requires a consecutive 6 month physician supervised diet,my appointment next week will make month 3 for me(halfway mark yay!!). This is my first time making a post, I mostly get on here to just read research, but I noticed that everyone is either post-op, or already on the liquid diet, so I’m looking for people to connect with that are currently still going through the process before approval like me...a little about myself: My name is Jaz I am 25yrs old.

MY STATS:

Height: 5”6

CW: 243(give or take)

HW: 250

GW: 140

BMI:39

Isn't it amazing how the Drs office tries to schedule appointments together? I have 2 appointments tomorrow, the cardiologist and meeting the Dr... Wish me luck!

Hi I’m super late just joined the app but I started my Journey in January. My estimated surgery date is early May. I have completed most of my insurance requirements. Only thing left is Psych Eval and 3 more nutritionists visits ( next one in a week)... so I’m right along with you.

Welcome to the group BeckyVSG2b, I started my journey in January also. My estimated surgery date should be around June. I have completed my Psych Eval and now I just have 3 more nutritionists visits. I see we both are on our way to a new beginning.

Yay I’m so excited! I will keep checking here for your progress. I started vlogging my journey on YouTube I’m so excited to see how things change for me. How did the Psych Eval go for you? Everything has been smooth up until now. My Psychologist have been missing in action. We were suppose to schedule an appointment almost two weeks ago and I cannot reach her. In a few more days I am reaching out to another one but I don’t want to seem impatient since I still have a few months til surgery.

I'm sorry to hear that your psych eval was rescheduled. Hopefully you can catch up with the psychologist so that things can continue to go smoothly for you. My psych eval went very smoothly, she gave her approval on the first visit. what channel on YouTube? i want to follow your progress. . I am so excited for us....

My nutrition visit went well. I see my doctor in 2 weeks. Getting nervous. I'm stuck again. But I'm hopeful that the pounds will come off soon. I'll keep you updated.

Still waiting on a date. This is so frustrating. Got my last clearance Tuesday, and they said the scheduler had 31 people ahead of me. I was ready to flip a table. I started this process in July. My insurance required a six month period of medically supervised weight loss. Now, I'm in month 7, almost month 8, and I'm feeling like I'm going to lose my mind. My motivation has been next to nothing and I'm eating like crap. I don't want to start sabotaging the progress I've made so far, but my anxiety is through the roof, and all this waiting has me totally in a funk. I feel like it's never going to happen at this rate. I'm frustrated and losing steam.

I started in July also. My paperwork was submitted on Thursday,but I have a surgery date on April 5th. I just hope I get approved. My willpower is dwindling. Struggling to stay on track right now. I share your anxiety.
