Hoping for January if all goes as planned with no hiccups! I have my 2nd NUT appt tomorrow. 4 left after that. I feel like it is forever away but I know these next few months gives me the time to learn and relearn. As well as save $$ so I can afford the time off work after surgery to heal. I feel like this is as exciting as having another pregnancy....time to wait....excitement....time off work...lol. (I'm an RN and have 5 Kids. Anytime off work for any reason is awesome to me!)

Ig I never realized how big I was. This was a wake up call . Just knowing that I was so blind about my weight and height showed me that I had to do something asap.

Hello everyone I am from Chicago and Cigna is my insurance carrier. I will be on month 3 of my 3 month supervised weight loss program on 8-25. I still have to do a sleep study next month, a second ekg next month and meet with my pcp. After those appointments I will almost be at the approval process and hope to have surgery in early December. Im 5"9 290lbs and want to shed 120lbs of this unwanted weight. I am so excited about surgery and it seems like its all I can think of at this point! Im so glad to read about other people going thru this journey as it seems like im the only one at times. Good luck everybody! Now lets shed these lbs together!!!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
