Hi Jamie! How has your journey been?
-
You are truly an inspiration Barbi! How was your trip?

I decided to have weight loss surgery. My family is not being supportive at all. My husband says I’m obsessed with the process. I can’t help it. It’s a life changing decision and I need help with that. Even my sisters(were really close) won’t talk about it with me. What’s wrong with me?

I know how you feel my surgeon is 2 hours away (Nashville)

Thanks! I wish I had a surgery date. I’m doing all the required meetings and appointments for my insurance. The problem is I have to do a 6 month weight loss program. It’s gonna take awhile. My psych evaluation is next Tuesday. -
I too have Aetna. My requirements are BMI 40 or above. 6 month program with my PCP (must show I’m attempting to lose weight through Atkins, weight watchers..etc 2 year weight history, sleep apnea screening, cardiac clearance, attend a support group, psych evaluation, and a nutrition class (2)

So happy for you! My nutritionist says that mine is a 5 day liquid diet. -
Did any of you have to do a sleep study before surgery? I did mine in my home and get the results on Thursday. My insurance required it.

Do you have support? I’m not getting any from my family. They say it’s all I talk about. I’m just trying to prepare myself and learn all about it. It’s not just a surgery it’s for life!
