WHOOP WHOOP!!! I am now T-minus 4-5 weeks till surgery!!! Met the surgeon today, they are sending all my paperwork to the insurance company and we will have that back in 2 weeks, then another week and a half or two till surgery!! Loved seeing him and when he asked if I had any questions and concerns about the operation. I told him that I've already watched the entire procedure on YouTube 3 times and know what to expect afterwards. That I'm not afraid and ready to go. He said he only wished he had more folks who had done their homework. I was in and out of his office in 10 minutes. Dammit that was easy! After the insurance comes back I'll have the endoscopy and sonagram but other than that it is all good to go!! I can't wait to melt away! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using the BariatricPal App

I have done all my research on the Sleeve. I have really not even thought about a full bypass until yesterday. I am looking for long term update from the guys who have had a sleeve or bypass. I have a few lady friends who have had great long term success with the full bypass. They are 5+ years out. But I do not personally know anyone who has had the sleeve long term. I have been doing all the insurance mandated precursors and my Bariatric Dr. has recommended me for the Sleeve. But the second thoughts have sprouted in my head as to which one. Thanks in advance guys.

Okay, my wife is trying to get a heads up on how much time she will need to take off to be home with me after the hospital stay. I know everyone is different but any insight for me to give her... Thanks in advance, Sam

Kindle, we LOVE ours and can not sleep on anything else. Ours is a soft sided waterbed. It orignally had individual tubes but when we moved 2 years ago we bought a new king sized motionless bladder. It is even better ! Yes, it sucks that No one carries the things and you have to order online with out getting to test the different levels of motion on the mattress before buying them. We are in Florida and haven't ever used a heater on ours. It stays about the ambient temperature of the house. In the winter time we put an old comforter down between the sheet and mattress pad. I took a king comforter and cut it down do its the size of the mattress and then sewed it back up. Then we just put the fitted sheet over top. Works like a champ!

Thanks all!! I am physically okay other than being fat!! I have worked 4 hours on a broken foot, 6 on a ankle woth a hairline fracture and drove myself home after my vasectomy while I had the broken foot and was in a cast with my broken foot sitting g in the passenger seat of the wife's car. (That was freaking fun) Okay, so just a couple days then. Thanks all!! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using the BariatricPal App

Started out on the 22nd floor at work and walked down 2 flights, then back up one. I did that from 22 down to 14. So, 2 down and one up. Then 14 straight down. That was Friday night. I still can't hardly walk!! It hurts but it's a good hurt. No pain no gain right ! Hopefully by Tuesday I'll be able to hit them again. But.... not so many floor back up. Baby steps.

That is exactly what I am thinking !! I am looking at the big picture not the short term. With all the stairs we have here at work, I need the practice !

Or a new line of work!! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using the BariatricPal App

That is awesome Pam!!! Age is a number the mindset is what matters! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using the BariatricPal App

Didn't think of that, I'll make sure to mention it to her after the surgery Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using the BariatricPal App

I'm hard headed! Normally I do about 10 flights a day but they are spaced out 2 at a time. I'm walking a bit better this morning. Still look like Forest Gump and his magic legs when walking though! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using the BariatricPal App

Wonder if she will grade with a "curve".... Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using the BariatricPal App

I don't have a clue how many steps I did. Hopefully my new tracker will count them for me when I get back to it on Tuesday Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using the BariatricPal App

I had one other guy that was in there with me kinda. He was walking to the top then riding the elevator down. I agree with you and understand completely. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using the BariatricPal App
