Talking Last weight check
Tomorrow is my last weight check. It's been 6 long months but I'll be able to move onto the next step! I've done my best this past month but I know I could have done better. Wish me luck!

Good Luck, Is this before your surgery?

I'm having my first check after my surgery, so excited to see what I've lost the first week.

Everything went great at my weigh in and I'm now waiting for the surgeons office to call me with an appointment. I'm very excited but very nervous also.

I'm in a similar place--my last weigh-in for my 6-month diet required by insurance will be next month. I won't get a surgery appointment until I've been approved by insurance, though, and I can't be approved by insurance until all my paperwork is submitted after I complete my diet.

Thank god for insurance to pay for my surgery, but I hate all the hoops they make us jump through...
