well next week I will be in my 3rd month of my 6 month supervised diet. (required by my insurance ) last week I went to a lung doctor and went for a sleep study . because my insurance would not pay for me to have a in lab study I had to do a at home study . the home study did not gather enough information so I go next week to talk to the doctor to see if we can get my insurance to pay for a in lab study . I got good news from the lung doctor he said my lungs are healthy and look and sound great . so he cleared me for surgery and sent the clearance letter to my surgeon. YAY! he told me that the only thing that concerns him is that I have a genetic blood clotting disorder and have already been hospitalized with blood clots in both lungs . but he said that they need to be extra careful with me. I assured him that I have talked to my surgeon and he is aware of the clotting disorder and knows I have a history of blood clots . and I really trust my surgeon .I have no time for negative thoughts .I was scared when I started this journey but now I push the scary thoughts away and keep moving nothing is going to slow me down. I put this off for a long time because of fear all the what if's and one day i just decided that I cant let fear of the unknown hold me back. I am glad that I have embarked on this journey and i know it is far from over heck it has just begun. things are flying by and I am getting closer every day. taking it one day at a time. is their anyone else who is still in the beginning of all of this stuff? i would love to have some fellow soon to be sleevers to chat with.

Hey my name is Ana and I just finished my second month of the diet. It's pretty nerve racking and I try to stay positive but it's hard. I try to tell myself I've been over weight all my life so 6 more months isn't that bad lol
