I actually have too. Not a whole lot or anything, but it was a few pounds.
-
So, I just realized we can all officially say our surgery is next month! I'm officially nervous but also super excited!
-
I did! Well, I didn't even have to food journal. I just had to go see the dietician every month for 6 months. My surgeon only requires a two week liquid diet before for those with a BMI over 48.

You can do it! You will be fine. I read your blog, and I can tell your a smart, strong woman. You can get through this =)

Woohoo!!! Yay for you!!!

I'm sleeved! My experience so far...

Now I know why I knew that hospital! My aunt's sister worked up there for a while. I'm so glad the second day was better! Might have just been the individual. How are you feeling now? -
Yay for a surgery date! Mine is October 13. You should add your date to the month specific forum =). Good luck with your MRI; I hope everything comes back fine!

I live in southeast Michigan! I have never been to Province though. I will make sure to steer clear of there. I'm having my sleeve done at Promedica in Toledo. -
Got my date yesterday-October 13!

Sorry you had such a difficult time. You also look nowhere near old enough to have a grown man for a son! Some people are so stupid! -
Just got my date! October 13!

I'm glad I'm. It the only nervous one this far out! And we have amazing futures ahead of us!

Hoping to have my surgery in late October! I am required by insurance to do a six month supervised weight loss plan. I have my fifth check in with the dietician next week and my sixth in September! I'm also meeting with my surgeon for the first time next week. I'm getting very excited but extremely nervous!

I'm sad that nothing tightened up for you! And congrats on your 115 pound loss! What an accomplishment! I have about 115-125 pounds to lose, and unfortunately I carry more of my excess weight in my stomach. My mom had a sleeve in December 2012 and just had plastic surgery earlier this week. She's in so much pain, I would be terrified to have any done!
-
Not what I wanted to hear lol! How much weight did you lose? Has your skin tightened up at all as time has gone on?
-
150 pounds is amazing!!!!
-
About how much did you lose? Pictures would be amazing if you don't mind sharing =) With the wraps do you mean like It Works?

And So Our Journey Begins...

Nuvaring Users - Did you take it out?
stephh replied to VSGLiz's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The dietician I see said I will not have to take mine out. I'm going to ask my OB just to make sure though. I would say if you're nervous, treat it like all other birth control and quit using it a month before and put it back in a month after. -
3 Months out on Wednesday 7/30 Already 65 lbs down!
