Color run would be fun but I'm not to sure about breathing in all that powder. Blow your nose and get a rainbow. I would think it is safe though. -

Oh yes running is what I am looking forward to also. I use to run a lot I'm my past and now I really miss it. It can boost your energy levels and after I like the satisfying feeling. I have been running/walking as of late and it has helped in my pre op weight loss. I plan on hiking the Superior Trail in northern Minnesota next summer and that will take about three weeks. I am trying to keep all these thoughts in my mind as I go through the next month. I would like to run a 5K with all you someday. You never know. -

What thing are you looking forward to after you lose the weight? One of mine is shopping and not having to be limited to just the XXL size and that size has a very limited number in stock. Searching the shelves for the biggest size or looking for just the longest belts is what I want to leave in the past. What about you guys? -

That is a good amount of protein so how does it taste and does it come in flavors? -

I am October 5th. Count me in too! -
Looks like I will be skipping this holiday. Seems like every holiday has gobs of fattening foods. They are a real good test for self control but this holiday I don't think it will be a problem .

What questions should I be asking in my last meeting before surgery? How long was the wait until the surgery date after meeting with the surgeon? Thanks in advance.

Gastric Sleeve Surgery went Great!
retrieverguy replied to lisaluvsgreys's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am glad to hear it went good for you. My gosh you had a lot going on in one time. Let us know how it goes. -
I have my last NUT on Monday and my contract review and signing. This has taken more time and mental ups and downs than anticipated. My insurance should cover but will wait to hear back after Monday. Feels good to be getting through the action items. It's been three months and a long journey. I am so thankful for the journey stories on this site. I hope I can do the same soon. One last hurdle is insurance!

I started my journey on April 29th. On July 6th my doctor will submit to my insurance for approval. This seems to take forever and a day but finally I am getting close. I am wishing for early August also. Once I get the good news like yourself I will be excited for the day to come. I also will get my vacation in just before I hope. Great to hear you are ready to go!
