Hey guys I'm doing my 6 month supervised. I'm going to month 5 appointment tomorrow. I heard that if you gain any at all they will deny you. I started at 403 I'm now 377. But month 3 I gained like 6 pounds but lost it. What do you guys think

Im new on here. I recently made the decision to have weight loss surgery. Im a nurse alot of my colleagues and friends ( thin of course). Keep saying its the easy way out, just work harder, and other comments against me having surgery. Have yall had any negative comments?

So im going into second month of my preop supervised diet. If everything goes according to plan I will have surgery sometime in June/July. Joined the gym this week. My boyfriend is my little cheerleader so supportive and just awesome during all of this. Im truly blessed. Starting weight 403. I'm 400 now. Hoping to be under next few days.

Im on month three of my six month supervised diet. Im feeling a bit overwhelmed. I mean there is so much information which type of vitamins, how much protein, psych eval etc. Did anyone else feel this way?

Thanks Yall

Cant wait for mine

Wow you look so good

That's awesome congrats

Im down to 390 now woohoo

Congrats

Im 2 months in and 14lbs down. Looking forward to getting the next 4 done. Joined the gym. Going 3 to 4 days a week.

I was in the same boat. Went to my doctor and he said the sleeve was the best option for me. Im a ICU nurse so I see and hear of everything that can go wrong. Lapband has a high post op having to have surgery again years down the road due to erosion slippage and I even had a patient that the band cut off circulation. The sleeve yes there are risk but the highest risk are during surgery and the few days after leakage. I researched till I was overflowing and decided to go with the sleeve. Im still pre op June/July lord willing. Gooe luck in your decision.

Im new on here im in my 6 month supervised diet. Hopefully will be sleeved in July. Im a nurse and see patients with many surgeries pertaining to the GI trac have issue with leakage into the abdominal cavity. I know that the number is very small with the sleeve. Anyone have any info or experienced this?

Hey yall im a newbie. I just started my 6 month plan surgery hopefully in July. Im up in the air between the two. Im a ICU Nurse I see the worst of situations of course the day I decide I get a patient that had leakage patient eventually went home 3 weeks later. I weigh 380 lbs im tall so no one thinks so. Im leaning toward RNY after hours turns to days turn to weeks of research lol. What do yall think?

Thanks everyone its very difficult but yall are right its for me. My family has been so supportive and im thankful for that. Most of all my boyfriend has been a tremendous support. He is dieting with me going to doctor meetings support groups. Im truly blessed to have someone who loves me for me and holding my hand every step of the way.
