I just got off the phone with the insurance company and they did approve me today. Now I have to wait until I get the letter and wait to be scheduled. I talked to the doc's office and they will be scheduling me for pre-op as soon as they get the approval letter. But we are shooting for 8/1:eek::eek::frown::crying: Guess I better get started on my pre-op diet.....

SouthernGirl,

I am doing the happy dance for you in my chair at work !!!!:unsure:

You go girl...

Curves~

Thanks! I am so happy but feeling rushed now. I just found out UHC has set a date for 7/30 for the surgery. That gives me almost no time to do pre-op and no time for pre-op tests. :eek:

I did find out that the date of 7/30 is just the date the doc's office will give the insurance company so for now we are waiting for the doc's office to get their copy of the letter or if I get mine first I can fax it in so I can get the actual date. I already started my pre-op diet so I am ready.

      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.

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
