Some people don't understand that the struggle is real. I've been a yo-yo dieter my entire adult life and this is the absolute last resort for me. It amazes me how people know my body better than i do. They tell me that I don't need the surgery!!!!! Yeah they know my body better than my doctor and I. Ok rant over thanks for listening.

You take care of yourself first and worry about recovery. In my opinion, they'll probably do fine while you are away. You just concentrate on healing. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

They said I don't need to do a liquid diet. I will anyways a week before. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

I'm August 15th in New York....can't wait Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

I just stopped. I knew I wanted the surgery more than I wanted the cigarettes. The first week sucks. It gets easier after that. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

I know it feels like you'll be waiting a lifetime, but I'm glad they made me do them. I learned a lot from them. Take this time to focus on you and learn how this tool will help you. Hang in there you can do it. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

Finally after six months of dietician appts.and all the other things that go along with it I have set a date for my surgery. August 15th is the big day (I could have scheduled it for June 20th but there's graduation in june and vacation in july)so I scheduled it in August right before my other vacation. I feel a sense of relief and joy. I've been over weight for so long. I can't wait to feel normal again. I can't wait to leave my house and not feel ashamed of what I look like. I can't wait to shop for normal sizes. I just can't wait???? Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

Thank you, I'll definitely keep it posted!! Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

I work for the state so I have pretty good insurance bcbs. I've done my psychological visit, sleep study (found out I have sleep apnea) ultrasound (check my gallbladder) and six months worth of dietician appointments ( at the end of this month)then I see the surgeon to schedule my surgery. It actually went by pretty fast. I was just wondering how long it takes to get to the surgery so I can schedule my vacation Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

I'm new to this site. Hello . I have my last dietician appt. at the end of this month and I was wondering how long it takes until I can get my surgery. I'm just so excited that I can't wait!!! After 6 months of dietician appts. I'm ready!

I went to a seminar in October 2015 and my last dietician appt is at the end of this month. My insurance required me to do 6 months of dietician appt. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

Yes, my insurance requires me to do 6 months of dietician appointments. I can lose weight I just can't gain any. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App
