Since January when I started this process I have a been great about managing my food tracking and killing these weigh ins. Since my last appointment I have gained almost 3 lbs from stress eating...I call Aetna everyday and it does not help that every one on here that was waiting with me has been approved. I hope I get the answer soon on day 8 of the wait. I cant take my mind off of it....

I know! waiting is the worst! Mine was only a couple of days but that was still too long as far as I was concerned......I would have gone nuts and probably cussed out a few people if mine had taken 8 days or longer. :angry:

Hang in there!!!

Waiting sucks.....but get that "stress eating" under control now.....or you'll be doing the same thing later on for whatever reason presents itself on any given day.

There is no such thing as comfort food.

Go walk some laps around the neighborhood when you are stressed.....or do some situps or pushups..........

Thank you guys but it's a process I've been in great control up until the last two weeks but my eating habits aren't going to fix themselves overnight

I think a lot of The Hunger is coming from my increased amount of activity because exercise and definitely makes me hungry more often the only difference between now and before I submit to insurance is I'm choosing Foods that are low in Protein and high in carbs or sugar but I'm in the gym Faithfully and I'm going to keep calling Aetna everyday

Hang in there. You have made it this far. Try not to let the nerves and anxiety of the wait take you off course! It is a process and you should be proud of yourself.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
