Hi,

I’m new here.

I’m having my surgery at the beginning of may in Montreal.

Anyone else on the same time frame?

We're close! Did you get insurance approval letter or did you pick a date then submit to insurance?

I'm looking at the last week of May, though I may have to push it back a week or two. My wife is having a knee replacement done on May 4th, so I'd like to wait until she's at least semi-mobile and no longer in constant agony. Fortunately both our kids are college age and will be able to take care of us. Neither kid drives though so my daughter will take me to and from the surgery in an Uber, and if we need groceries and such while I'm recovering, we'll have them delivered.

I picked May 30th than they sent insurance in than I got approved and went back to drs to get it changed sooner all they had was may14 so chose that instead of 30th. My drs suck and the lady was like they not going to approve it bc my 6 month weigh in was at primary drs but they approved it

      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
