@Mountaingal Haha my life is full of busy! I work full time, I have a 9 year old and 15 month old. Soccer, gymnastics for the oldest and swimming for the baby. Cooking, cleaning and laundry, not to mention N. VA traffic. My days fly by! It will be here before I know it. Sad but true, I am looking forward to surgery so I can have a break!

Random thoughts: Fall is my favorite season and it's almost here. I love taking my kids to the pumpkin patch. I am almost at my 3 year surgiversary and about to have revision surgery. Excite but apprehensive.

@@scoutmom I haven't been approved yet. I have my final weigh in this week. Them they submit to insurance. I am hoping to have surgery in October. I told the coordinator I want to have it at Fair Oaks. I had the option and I felt it was a better one. Is it true their rooms are private? -

No Complications
SleeveandRNYchica replied to Velocity's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
I would love to hear more about your experience. I am having sleeve to bypass revision and I am nervous too. Much more than I was for the sleeve. -
Wow, the fact that you said you don't want to unload your grief in her...that is so profound in the fact you want to give her the time and space to figure herself out even in the midst of your pain. You sound like an amazing husband and friend. I am sorry you both are going through this. I hope you find the necessary avenues to assist you.

Sleeve to Bypass weight loss
SleeveandRNYchica replied to MichJohn77's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Wishing you the best! I don't have an answer as I am also having Sleeve to Bypass sometime in late Sept/Early October. Please keep me posted. I am interested in your recovery, how it differed from sleeve surgery. How long has your dr said you should be outta work? -
oh my goodness, oh my goodness, oh my goodness! You just made my day!!!!! Jumping up and down! Lol! Glad I can make someone's day! Just refer to the fepblue book u can see it online. Follow those guidelines and u should have no problems!
-
I am not sure when you date would start. Is your physician doing your nutritional counseling? If so that may work. It has to be a complete 90 days. I have FEPBLUE basic. My 1st appt June 3rd, 2nd July 15th and 3rd was August 8th. I have go weigh in on September 3rd and that will make 90 days.

Fepblue is not 6 months, it is 3 months

I'm afraid!
SleeveandRNYchica replied to ericaacire's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I had the sleeve 3 years ago. I have to have revision due to Gerd plus a couple other sleeve complications. I honestly wish I had opted for RNY initially. I must admit I am more anxious about having revision surgery than my initial procedure. I know many successful RNY'ers! -

Gastric Bypass Surgery Progress Pictures
SleeveandRNYchica replied to JustFluffy's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
You look simply amazing! Absolutely beautiful. Wouldn't not have even noticed your arms. I'm not sure if you posted somewhere else, but can you please provide your stats, when was your surgery please?Start weight on my first doctor appt was 225 lbs, Day of surgery 213lbs, today 143lbs surgery was March 16 2015. You do look great! I know you said you are concerned with your arms. I would give yourself sometime for everything to settle. I hear people say their skin rebounds a bit little by little. -
