How soon after your last visit with the nutritionist or after the final tests did it take for you to be approved ? I have 2 more visits with the nutritionist then the final tests I'm nervous and anxious

They're just prepping you I made the mistake of getting my ekg and the Doppler for my ankles done and now I have to redo it because certain tests is only good through 30 days. But don't get nervous it's parts of the retirements everything has to be cleared before surgery just to make sure your good it's aggravating I wish it was just as easy as going to a foreign country and paying to have this done but unfortunately with some insurances they require a lot of things and sometimes you have to redo them like in my case

That's great! I need 3 more months I'm on my 3rd month with the nut what about you? I'm nervous as well I know a few friends who have done this and they look great a few of them not too good because they got comfortable and gain 30-50 lbs back which I don't get you will do great it's a new beginning for us I can't wait have you lose any weight with the nut?

Salam I watched all 12 episodes in 2 days I was so hooked

New Jersey

I'm also hoping for January in going for my 3rd appt with my nut so anxious

I would definitely join I'm single now and I can't meet anyone worth my time a lot of jerks out there.

I know the feeling. Im 6 weeks out tomorrow and don't regret it one bit ???? Hey how are you making out ?

Anyone from northern New Jersey ?

OMG I know I feel I gained more in my 40s then my 20s or 30s it's so much harder now in my 40s. Our metabolism slows down ????????????

Hey I'm 41 and today I have my pretesting at the hospital for an ekg and venous testing as well as blood works. Hope I get surgery soon. I've been battling my weight in my 20s 30s and I refuse to go through this in my 40s tired of everyone telling me your pretty but try to lose weight ????I can relate to so many who have tried on there own but can't seem to lose the weight. And when I do I gain it make just as fast

I had it they gave me such a hard time I switched to wellcare nj family care

I would start taking it now and I highly recommend massaging your scalp each night with castor oil. It helps your hair grow a lot even if it feels greasy

I changed hmos for the same reason I didn't want to wait a year so now I have wellcare and the wait is 3-6 months

Yeah I know the feeling but don't focus on how many people know. Someone will always have something to say. Wether your big or skinny it's always going to be something. Try to ignore it and not let it get to you. You've made it this far. Wait until you lose your first 100 then everyone will really know ????

I have my Nut appt on Tuesday then my nutrition appt

That's good @@newstart38 that's what I do as well.

Wow your not far from me but yes until your body finally settles with the new change , even your taste buds will change.

That's great ????????????????I'm hoping by February 2016 when did you start?

@@newstart38 That's good ????????????????yeah I'm curious what diet they will have me on I'm even thinking of joining the gym too. Yogurt is good and even the egg whites with toast

I'm from north Bergen Nj are you near there ? I'm getting it done in englewood nj. Try to stay hydrated drink a lot of water what diet they have you on ?your going to probably experience a lot of changes its all part of your body getting use to the change

Hang in there I feel the same but I know the months are flying by and before you know will you will drop inches weight and look amazing. Most of all you will be healthy no more insoles or pains. Give it time and patience. It's aggravating trust me God knows I want to drop this weight at 265 and 5"7" height it's really bothering me. I can't even play with my 11 year old without having to sit down and relax. So don't get discouraged you can always vent and talk to me or anyone here

It is but it's a matter of learning to eat better and at smaller portions. But your not alone ????????????????I'm nervous myself at the change but I'm excited at the results a year from now

Thank you so much for the information at least now I have a understanding to what to expect good luck to you too????????????????

It's the worst pain but all these signs of our body crying out for us to make a change will be long gone after the surgery. ???????????? we will feel great and gain not only energy but we won't have to carry the weight on our backs legs let alone toes
