Initial appointment scheduled

[over65 133]

Passed insurance coverage check. My Initial appointment is scheduled January 7. I already filled out Family, Personal Health and Surgical History through online app. I have been practicing Water sipping, chewing bites many times and mindful eating. I know. Surgery is at least 3 months. But trying to develop new habits so won't have to focus on those the first weeks after surgery.

Congratulations, good idea to be practicing and making changes where you can to give yourself the best opportunity to suceed and I am sure those 3+ months will fly by

Congratulations! I think it's wonderful that you're preparing yourself for the surgery. Three months will fly by!

3 months will go really quick. I had to wait six months and that went quick believe it or not. It's great you are practicing chewing etc. I still don't chew right and eat too fast two months post op!

It was soooooo hard to retrain myself to eat smaller bites and to eat more slowly. Kudus to you for working on that now. It really will help later on. I was 63 when I had my surgery and I think age gives a perspective, as by that time, we are experiencing the actual effects of obesity on our bodies. You are going to have a whole new life! Congrats.
