Good advice, thank you. I guess everybody's varies just a little but but like you said reading these forums is excellent in preparation so thanks for sharing -

Hey, good luck! Though I'm puzzled as to why you would be waiting for as long as you seem to have.. A few weeks since insurance has approved you and you're still waiting? Maybe you should call them and ask about this delay? -

Upper GI.. hmm I don't have that on my list. I'm scheduled for an endoscopy next month and I've had the at-home sleep test.. other than that I have appointments with NUT every month when I go in to get weighed. I had to get the psych eval done too as well as an on the record session with a NUT (which is in addition to what I get monthly) but I think the only other thing left will be the bloodwork and the pre-op class at my surgeon's so we'll see. Sorry to hear about your hernia; maybe they can fix that while they're at it? -

I agree.. my pcp's first reaction was to tell me about a patient of hers that had died after getting wls surgery.. of course further inquiry proved she had had a host of other issues and shouldn't have been cleared for wls to begin with but you can imagine, it leaves quite an impression on one when this is the first thing you hear from your pcp. nevertheless I stuck with it and am due to be sleeved in september. only you can tell if this is the right thing for you (unless there are medical reasons as to why you shouldn't of course!)

Ok... new question for all you experienced folk; i don't go to the gym, i work out at home and not yet with weights... no machine either (for weight training I mean)... I'm telling you all this because I feel like the resting periods recommended in between sets seems to be geared more toward the dude with the heavy weights at the gym. I mean I feel silly lifting my arms up for an exercise and then just standing around for a minute or two to rest... anybody have any good routines that can be done without machines?

Wow... i don't remember the last time I wanted to forego sleep to catch up on some reading but this is such a great site. His recommendations on workout are great but his take on nutrition really resonated with me too. Fascinating read, thank you very much for sharing. H 5'6" HW 253, CW 245, TBS 9/19 -
