Hey girlie! Still hanging in there. Things are progressing nicely - I've actually lost almost 100 lbs since I started this journey - about 88 since my surgery. Can't believe that it's happening so fast and that I feel so good. Definitely starting to look like a Sharpei puppy though! How are you doing? Chanvita - you out there?

[Blessedfun 89]

Glad you are doing good! Hope everyone else is too. Congrats on the 100!!! Me too - right at 100 since May 15. I hit goal at six months. I am trying to slow things down now. I bought a dress today that is a size 4. I don't want to lose anymore. Need a little something to work with you know!

Hey! So glad all are attaining their goals!

I've changed mine.... As I was getting smaller, I thought about what my overall goal was. I realized I want to be stronger. So I am now a CROSSFITTER!!! I'm only about 2 months in and I love it and my goal is already coming to fruition.

[Blessedfun 89]

I will have to look into that. Unsure of the details of crossfitting.

Hello. I know its been a while since I've posted. Well I thought my surgery would have been in October but to my surprise my insurance changed their policy. Instead of 3 momths weight management; they went to 6. So my paperwork was submitted to my insurance last friday the 13th. So now im playing the waiting game. Im very vert very nervous and scared and excited. So you guys cross ur fingers and say a prayer for me. Hope everyone is doing well. God bless!!

Believing for approval for you! Hereo cheer you on! Hang in there and pack your bag cause you will be moving to the losers bench soon!

Anyone here who had their surgery with Riverside surgical @ Lexington Hospital with Dr. Antonetti? If so what were the steps after you received your approval from insurance?

[Beachbum2017 108]

I had my surgery with Riverside Surgical and Dr. Antonetti - a day or two after my insurance approval the office called me to schedule my surgery. I went on pre-op diet for 2 weeks and had my surgery. Its been smooth sailing ever since.

[LivingForGod 111]

So did you have to do any pre op blood work or ekg or anything like that?

I was denied @ first but I appealed and was approved yesterday. So im waiting for Riverside to call me!

My surgeon is Dr. Antonetti with riverside surgical. They called today and told me I had to get pulmonary clearance for I could get a surgery date....WHAT IS PULMONARY CLEARANCE?????? WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO DO?? I know they said it's going to take about 1 1/2 hours.
