No more CPAP

I am so happy!!!!!!! I had a sleep study and the tech. said I didn't qualify to sleep with the cpap during the study because I didn't stop breathing to have to wear it. I am so thrilled I can't even describe it. I have been on my CPAP FOR ALMOST 3 YRS. and I felt so unattractive sleeping next to my hubby with a "Darth Vader" mask covering my entire face, but not tonight or ever again!!!!!!!!!! Just wanted to share my excitement. Oh and I finally got my new pictures on profile. Kelly 415/300/185?

Hi Kelly, I am so happy for you! Congratulations! I know you are so happy. Great picture too! Mary Salmon -61 before surgery -59 after surgery 80 pounds yet to go

I have a friend who no longer requires CPAP now that she's lost 170 lbs BUT SHE REFUSES TO GIVE IT UP BECAUSE SHE LIKES IT!!!!!! Sue O.

Kelly, You are hott woman!!!!! I know I have been using my cpap less and less each week. I think I need to have a study done again. I know what you mean about the "darth vader look"..lol..lol Dont worry you never have to wear that again..good job..god bless you and your family..Ron in Arizona..

I stopped using my CPAP machine a few weeks back and sleep like a baby now. Donna 338/234 -104

Your doing awsome Kelly on the weight loss. Keep it up Donna

That is fantastic news! I'm hoping I can eventually get off mine, too. I have the autopap machine, so I can measure it myself. Since my RNY, my average pressure has gone from 11 to 8. If that continues, I may be off entirely once I hit goal. For anyone else losing weight, you should really get the autopap! It is wonderful, since it adjusts to just what you need. Otherwise, you should have another sleep study every 50 pounds or so, and who wants to do that!?!?!? Your insurance should cover it, I would think, since the machine is cheaper than the sleep studies. ~~ Leslie RNY 12/17 238/170/138
