5 months down 56 lbs

Update Surgery 4/26/13 Starting weight 223 Current weight 194 Total lost 29 pounds At a stall for two weeks now ????

Sleeved on April 26, down 21 pounds. Having alot of pain on my big incision. And sometimes shooting sharp pain to my back side. Haven't done much since its so painful and I'm still on pain meds. Just can't wait until the pain goes away and I can sleep good.

That's great to hear! Congrats. Just found out it was submitted for approval a few days.. Lets see what happens.

I started my journey on Jan 12, 2013 with the seminar. With in 3 months i have completed all my visits and tests.. Now just waiting for the multi disciplinary committee to clear it and then authorization to my insurance. I'm some what worried since my bmi is 35.8 but have 2 co mobilities, but again one of them I was tested for 17 years ago... Just wondering has anyone gone thru this so called committee who decides if you are having surgery or not? Has anyone been denied? Who are they? Just curious .. Also wish this entire process was more smoother then it has been. Just frustrated with the staff and being under staff doesn't help. I aways have to call them or email them to take care of things and I've already lost one entire month for miscommunication and dumb authorizations from my ***. Crossing my fingers I get approved...

You look great! Good for you and congrats
