4 month checkup
CaliforniaCandy and 3 others reacted to SIPS in Seattle for a post in a topic
Today I had my 4 month post surgery checkup. I am no longer in the obese category! Per my doc’s PA I have lost 62% of my excess weight. She said that their goal for all patients is to make it under a bmi of 30 and I am now 28.73. Woohoo for just being overweight!! Can’t wait to see what month 5 brings along with the new year. Let’s do this!! [emoji851][emoji1392][emoji1322]♀️[emoji322][emoji323] -
3 pointsHi my name is sandy from NJ and I have decided to do the gastric sleeve. I have already met with my nutritionist and have 3 more left. Hopefully there are people out there that plan on doing the surgery or have done it...so let’s be buddies and fight the same psychological & physical battle.

I feel like I’m not losing weight quick enough.

You are losing more than normal. My dietician said to plan on 1 to 2 pounds a week. You are doing much more than that. This is a marathon not a sprint. How much would you be losing without the surgery? -

It depends on your insurance. I couldn't drop below a bmi of 35 or I'd be denied. Sent from my XT1254 using BariatricPal mobile app -

POST-OP QUESTION
Sosewsue61 reacted to Berry78 for a post in a topic
Yes, it is fluids from the hospital. You need to really push to be getting in your 64oz fluids each day. Congrats on your surgery, and welcome to the losers' bench! -

Wife is treating me terrible after surgery.

So, you're moving toward lifetime disability with young kids? I think its very reasonable for your wife to be angry and/or disappointed -- not abusive, but angry. I say get counseling and hope for the best. The marriages that work best seem to be where spouses contribute equally, or there's a stay-home understanding/agreement. -
