Do you find it causes cravings like other sweet things do. I'm scared of having those terrible cravings return. I feel so freed from them. -
Positive Sleep Apnea Test
linedancer718 replied to NJE123's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have the nasal pillows. I made a commitment to put it on every night. Sometimes it came off before I fell asleep. Then I made a goal to reach the minimum 4 hour recommendation. If I woke up and it had been 4 hours I let myself take it off. Then I made a goal of all night. It took time but now I won't go to sleep with or its. I recorded myself one night before I would use it and hearing how awful I sounded really helped me admit I needed it. I do look forward to getting off of it though. Be patient but do it. It took me about 3-4 months to feel the benefits. I actually felt more tired when I first started. I was told it was because I'm making up for a sleep debt. I feel so much better now. -
I'm having mine June 12th. Can't wait.

You will need to use the machine. It takes time getting used to it but it is so great once you realize how crappy you used to skeep. -
Justin 15 24 I saw him a few weeks ago. He sits down and talks with you about the surgery. He is very straightforward about how he feels if someone is not taking this seriously. Make sure you have lost weight, the more the better. This shows your seriousness. I had lost 15 and he made me feel it wasn't good enough. He told me that I needed to lose more before surgery. He did schedule me though. He said he has had patients who gained weight before the surgery and he cancelled it. Any specific questions I'd be more then happy to answer.

Impish my surgery is scheduled for June 12th. I am so excited. I will say one thing. You need to lose weight and not gain. I gained 2 pounds after a 15 pound loss and Leger wasn't happy with me. I do understand his concerns though so I'm working hard to lose before surgery. I started the process in novemver. I went right through the steps pretty quickly. I am an expert at losing weight, as I'm sure we all are, so I was able to put practices in place quickly.

From what I understand dr. Kim is not working right now. Dr leger is the only doctor at kaiser right now. Met him the other day. Nice guy but very candid when he's talking to you. It was good though, I needed to hear when he had to say.

Tamg26k....so what advice can you give someone else that would like to lose 150 that quucjly. -
Hello all. I just met with my surgeon today and he scheduled me for June 12th. He was very candid with me, it was hard to listen to but it was good for him to say these things to me. I need to lose some more weight by surgery. I gained 2 pounds and he wasn't all that happy. I need to "OWN IT". Those were the two words that stuck with me.

I have my appointment with the surgeon 4/23 and he will tell me if he thinks i am ready for surgery. I hope i havent gotten this far just for him to tell me i have more wirk to do.

Hi everyone. Janae here. Im a kaiser patient and am just waiting to hear from the appointment setter for my appt with the surgeon. I dont know which surgeon I will have. Im in Tualatin. Im looking forward to this but scared at the same time. My biggest fear is going through this and gaining it all back. Because of this I am looking for support groups and people. This looks like a nice group. Kaiser people...do any of you go to the Murray or sunnybrook support groups? I went last saturday to sunnybrook.
