Welp, I am an October sleever no more. I was diagnosed with sleep apnea during my sleep study, so now I have to wear the CPAP for 30 days and receive a clearance for my pulmonary doctor before I am cleared. My follow up with him is the end of October; therefore, I will more than likely end up in November baring nothing happens with my EGD Wednesday. I am really low key disgusted, but it is what it is. I can't even take my class while i log my 30 days using the CPAP... I really wish I could. It has been my pleasure being amongst you Octobers ;-) Best of luck to you all!

I'm sure it's all for the best. I know the aggravation you must feel. It's quite a song and dance we have to do to get to the actual point of surgery. Hopefully, it will go by quickly for you and your surgery will be here before you know it!

Insurance approval after first appeal. Horrible company and an 18 month medically supervised diet and 10% required weight loss and maintenance of that loss...it's all led me to my sleeve surgery on October 22. It's been so long and such a fight that now it's surreal. Working on all the pre surgical medical stuff now. I'll turn 41 a week after my sleeve. BMI 44, diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea. Never been so excited. Or so scared!

Congrats! I can't believe you had to do an 18 month medically supervised diet!! And an appeal to get it.

Congrats! I’m Oct 8. I’m a teacher too. But I am just going to make it work. I feel the same way as you. This is the first thing I’ve done for me.

We have been out because of Hurricane florence and have not been able to return to school yet. So I feel bad that I will need to miss so soon after we do get to return, but I cannot pass up this opportunity to better myself. I will make it work. Good Luck to you! I will let you know as soon as I know my date for sure. :)

      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
