    The scale...

    You're going to drive yourself crazy weighing every day. I would lose weight for 2 weeks after my cycle and then 2 weeks before, it stagnated. So I worked extra hard to get as much off as possible during my "favorable" weeks. Once weekly weigh-ins is what my doc advised.

    Self-pay sleeve along with insurance paid hernia

    Who is your surgeon? I'm also having my surgery in Houston.I'm actually in The Woodlands area. I used Dr Balette. Below is his website. Since I was self pay it went very quickly. I had my surgery at the end of March. Dr Balette is awesome. http://www.sgotw.com Oh, nice! I'm scheduled to have surgery on the 19th. Closer to SW houston, though.

    APPROVED FINALLY!

    I understand! Waiting a month was hard! But part of that was my psych paperwork not being forwarded to the surgeon. It had to be tracked down. I didn't expect to be approved., especially without any comorbidities. So when I got that message I was floored. I started shaking. I'll cross my finger for you!!

    APPROVED FINALLY!

    I also got my approval on Friday after waiting a month! The secretary scheduled me before even talking to me because she knew I wanted to get this done as soon as possible, while I'm On summer break. I'm scheduled for the 19th. My liquid diet starts Thursday. I've had some last meals, eating some things I know I won't be able to eat again. Not binging, though, not enjoying as much as I'd expect. Is there a June sleevers Forum?

    Acid Reflux?

    Hello, Acid reflux has been a chronic problem for me for years and I've taken Meds like Prilosec and aciphex to help control it. But I'm not sure if I'll be able to continue that after the surgery. Maybe open up the pill and sprinkle it on applesauce when that is tolerable? This is a question that I also need an answer to. From what I've read, reflux gets worse or better after surgery depending on the person

    Haven't told anyone...

    Thank you, Lady Rouge. I haven't even told my mother. :-/ I'm just private in that way.
