Topic: RE: 6 month supervised diet ?
Jamie
Hi, I had the sleeve in feb/08 and i been supervised for this months after, and it means that if you stop loosing weight at the same speed they will change your intake (portions) and the exercise routine they give you and help you to improve your metabolism rate, that's why is sow important.
Good luck

I have a question. What are we trying to accomplish with the 6mth supervised diet? Do they want to see that we CAN lose weight on our own or CANNOT lose weight on our own?Jamie

Congrats on everyone's surgery next week. I am so excited for all of us.
Packing? I will probably pack Monday evening. What all is everyone taking anyway. Here is my list.
set of clean undies & socks
chapstick
hair brush
toothbrush & paste
robe
slippers or flipflops
set of clothes to come home in
my own pillow
laptop (which my hubby will hold onto)
camera
scrapbook misc little stuff to work on
book
I think that is it.

I had my visit with the surgeon today to go over my last lab items. We are all set for Oct 8th ... yea man!!! Woot Woot.
I, like you, am so happy that this day has finally come around. I didnt think about packing my stuff...better do it now so that I am not scrambling at the last minute...
I could also make sure the house is clean so that I don't have to worry about it when I get home!!!

My surgery is Monday the 6th. No go on the manicure and pedicure. I was told at preop assessment that I had to remove my polish and acrylics so they can see the nail bed to monitor me. I was told I couldn't even wear clear polish!
I guess the day at the salon for me will come a couple weeks after :(
Good luck everyone!

According to my doctor's office, the insurance companies are looking for some behavior change and weight loss or sustained weight to show a commitment to changing your lifestyle. Besides, losing weight before the surgery can help amke surgery and recovery easier.
I lost about 10 lbs in my supervised visits, and my insurance company approved me within a day of submitting--so they aren't trying to "trick" you, I don't think.
Good luck!!

I'm having surgery on October 7 and I'm SO happy i can't stop smiley my faces hurts from smiley so much. I have everything i need do but my bag which I'm packing today. I cleaned my house from top to bottom making sure that it is clean for next week. My mom is going to keep my son for me for 2 weeks after my surgery so i can heal and get better. And she is going to come over and clean and so are my 2 best friends. How is everyone else dealing with there waiting time? Today i have my pre- op and tomorrow i have my appointment with my doctor. I will keep everyone in my prays.
