    I'm hoping for September for me, so I'll be right behind y'all, asking a ton of questions. (Hope you always wanted an annoying little sister! ?)

My surgery is in 4 hours today too. Can’t sleep, so decided to get up and read and pray. Nervous, excited, anxious, sooooo many different emotions right now.

I can imagine! How are you feeling?

Wow! I've been on my journey since February 2021. I'm so glad I now I have a date. I was denied by my insurance after 5 months of pre-op appointments so I'll be going to Mexico.

May I ask, why were you denied? That’s my fear. I’ve gotten all my medical clearances done and have my surgery date, but waiting for the ok from the insurance. I would hate to be denied when I've come so far.

Tomorrow for me!!!

Had my surgery august 4, so far have lost 10 pounds but it’s hard to get the fluids in and Protein. I’m super constipated to not sure if that’s why I can’t drink more.

Hey we’re twinsies!! I had mine the 4th too and I’ve lost 10 lbs since the surgery and I lost 15 before it! So I’m at 25 now and starting to feel great. It is def had to get enough fluids in. I sip ALL day on water and my clear protein (except when I’m going to try to have a “meal”). I drink my protein shake in the am within the first hour of getting up but I usually can only get down half of it in an hour or longer. I always go back to it later. I make sure I drink atleast 1 clear protein and 1 1/2-2 shakes and WATER all day- that will help with the constipation! Message me if you need any other help! I can help wherever I can!
