I had one too. horrible night of sleep. I wanted my own bed. found out I do NOT have apnea. good to know, bad for the wallet. I think they want to know also for the anesthesiology during surgery... but I'm not too sure.

wise words above. I've lost 15lb pre-op and I can already notice a difference in energy. take it slow. you will recover, then you can grab the bull by the horns!

in exactly 7 days, I will be sleeved. I am down 12 pounds in 14 days on the pre-op diet. Things are good I am getting pretty excited.

fingers crossed. submitted info a while ago. still haven't heard yet. my surgery is sept 10.

hope you are having luck on your hunt to find someone to cover the revision. Have you called http://www.legacyhealth.org/weight ? I am going through them. There staff is very nice and helpful. Give them a call. talk to their insurance guru. She may have a few insurance companies that cover those costs. If not, look into a self-pay outside the US?.?.?.

@misica2771 did you find a place in MX yet? have a date? I am a week until surgery....

Yo!!! A week from today is our big day!!! I am 2 weeks into my 3 week pre-op diet and am down around 12 pounds!!! Picked up some supplies for after the surgery so I am ready to go on the road to recovery. Gas-x strips, chewable multi and calcium. Have food all prepped too. I am still waiting to hear if I am going to get my protein shakes from http://www.insurenutrition.com/ . I hope I do. Not nervous at all and ready to start this new chapter of my life. I think this Sunday will be tough on me, because we are having a huge bbq/baby shower for my expecting wife (Due November). there will be a ton of food. I think I will stick to a bunless turkey burger. Anyway, good luck to you all. lets keep eachother updated and also create a new thread in the post-op forum for recovery stuff. cheers.

awesome work!!! keep it up

Awesome. lol... who knew it would be a celebration to be overweight... but coming from obese or morbidly obese, it is a real accomplishment. great work

@@JCP @jojoreno I'm another Sept 10 sleever..... best of luck to you all!!! Our time is here.

happy 1 month surgiversary!!! keep it up, keep us updated!!!

walk around the house.... walking prevents potential blood clots. glad you are handling it well. I am 13 days out. super excited.

@@livvsmum sums it up well. 3 times a day or week? either way. good work.

awesome and congrats to you!!!

GUYS ROOM GUYS ROOM GUYS ROOM!!!!!! Hey, some good ideas here. never thought about how to Celebrate. I guess celebrating in the past always included calories!!! I assume, that I can celebrate by buying the next size down and donating my clothes.... I donate to the Vietnam Veterans of America. I bag it and set it out front. They drive by and pick it up. Very convenient.

tough to hear that!!! Sounds like everything will work out in the end. This next chapter in your life just took on a couple more pages is all. hang in there....

congrats to all of you above who have been kicking some serious ass. I am 13 days from my surgery. I am looking forward to being able to post on here about my successes I will have.... I guess I have been somewhat successful as far as number go. I'm 35 and my high weight was 320 about a month ago. since starting my pre-op diet 9 days ago I am down to 307. I have also been hitting the gym at least 3 times per week. Today, I was there at 5am. so many motivating factors to get healthy.... I can't wait. piss off, you fat..... get off of me!!
