Weight loss stall 3 weeks out
Shineaiggy29 replied to Shineaiggy29's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
No, I think a lot of that is my own person scale obsession from previous diets. Thats a habit I am trying to break. I've decided to hide the scale for a while, out of sight, out of mind! -
Kind of freaking out a bit, I'm 3 weeks post sleeve and my weight loss has stalled for the past 4 days. I'm scared I am doing something wrong and not even realizing it. Has this happened to anyone else?

Oh geez, I didnt realize it was that common! I agree they made no mention of this, but it's normal! Its funny I spent a lot of time looking at faq's and stuff pre-op and for some reason I missed this stuff or my brain blocked it out as "eh probably wont happen to me". I'll blame it on post surgery brain haha. Thank you very much! -
I use an App called Simple Macros-Diet Tracking on the Play store. There are some premium features but it is super simple and for what I need its great. I didnt mind Baritastic but didnt like the layout. MY only complaint is there isnt a recipe builder feature (although it could be hidden and I just didnt see it).

Oh shoot thank you I will do that! And yes according to my surgeon i meet the BMI requirements -
I just started my journey and have 6 months of Dr appointments, evals, and nutritional counseling before I can get approved by insurance. Bariatric surgery is covered by my insurer. I am scared as hell that I will go through all of this and still not get approved 😖. Is it common to get denied?

I am researching surgeons and they are the closest and so far I have read nothing but good things. Has anybody gotten surgery from them before?

What I wish i knew before I had surgery
Shineaiggy29 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am heavily researching getting gastric sleeve surgery, and this forum has been really helpful. I am curious for those who have had the surgery, or any WLS really; what is something that you found out after surgery that you wish you knew about beforehand. Both good and bad appreciated!
