Well that is super awesome you have someone to share the journey with! I hope you both are feeling well. Thank you for sharing

I am sooo super stoked- I have only told a very select few that I have this up and coming. One of which was my boss, I was wondering if any of you have experienced questions from co workers or anything like that and how you approached it. I am not by any means hiding anything, I just want to wait until after the procedure is completed before I let the cat out of the bag so to speak. I am already super emotional, just because this has been a long process for me. (found a doctor I like a year ago and he was NOT COE approved-so I had to find another doctor) Any advice is welcome, I am just more or less trying to be positive and not let my worry overwhelm me. TIA

How many days prior to surgery do you begin the liquid diet? I don't have my pre op meeting until June 5th....tick tock.

Hey y'all! I have my pre-op upcoming and I am really nervous, has anyone ever gotten to pre-op and been approved by insurance and your doctor and then told oh no we cannot do the surgery? Or maybe if there is a hiccup what can I expect? I guess the unknown is scaring me/consuming me. I am very excited but I feel like I am not prepared and I need to know what can I expect worst case. Any and all advice is welcome! TIA!

Congrats on your weight loss thus far! Thanks for sharing

Thank you, what will they do?

I told my husband if we go out to eat I will only order off the kids meal- grilled chicken and a veggie. I totally get it about being uncomfortable about sharing that, especially being that the person you had lunch with had a smaller weight problem. (but each journey is different-I get it) Thank you for sharing that with me, I like to see all different approaches. You are correct I am beyond excited/nervous! <3

Thank you, I love it! I am learning soo much!

Thank you, and I couldn't agree more. I just don't want any expectations or extra questions. I appreciate you taking the time to respond. Wish you the best with your en devours!

Love this article, great share and wonderful perspective to think upon....thank you!

I have seen two doctors about this- one did NOT require the reval and my current doctor- which I got approval from did. Yes approval time seemed much quicker. But this has been a very long process....or maybe tiresome is the better word.

Will do , you keep me update too!! Stay strong and hydrated! [emoji16] Sent from my SM-G935P using BariatricPal mobile app
