Kensington, they were checking me for acid reflux. Which I haven't had in 13 years. Hopefully you won't need it.

Thanks. It makes sense they need the study to map their path during the procedure and rule out other issues. Thank you!

Keep your head up. Never know it could be Water weight gain. Also maybe their scales are different that your wls office too. All 3 of my Drs say I weigh a different amount

My consult day was 5/20, I was 275lbs... today 6/29... I'm 278... I've been eating like a mad cow... because I quit smoking on 5/28. I'm almost too the point where cigarettes don't phase me, but the habit of eating is a habit I don't need. 3lbs isn't bad.

I finally got my date....August 10th. Requested the Insur admin at the office to check with the hospital for possible dates and it was available...Yeah! I really wanted to have is done before my kids went back to school. Now all I have is the last Nutritional visit on July 10th, then submit to insurance for approval. My Endoscopy is scheduled for July 17th.

I had a year program ???? I graduate September 30th. Fingers crossed I'll be sleeved early October.

Do you all get free Protein powder samples? If so, how? Please share where I can sign up for a variety of samples.

I emailed info@bariatricchoice.com and they sent me a link to order free samples.

One step closer... I have my psych eval tomorrow and I'm nervous. Haha, I worry that he'll see a need for more visits. Yikes! Then 3rd Nut visit on the 6th and only 1 left! Aug 31 would be perfect for me. Fingers crossed.

Time is getting closer for all of us. Seems like such a long road. But very very worth it. 6 months seems so long, but saw where someone else on here had to wait a year. I ordered the injury sample pack and Vitamins. Anxious to try. I've not cared for any pre mixes yet, but need more selection for variety.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
