Hi (coming out of lurking) and some ???

forgot something... there is 20 grams of protein per scoop too. you can mix that with 8 oz. of water and goes down easy.

Hi Erica and WELCOME!  Sounds like you are on the right track!  Patience isn't my biggest asset either, so I know how you feel!  It'll definitely be worth it though!!!!!!!
Please keep in touch!

Hi Erica,
Who is your surgeon, I have Dr Wolff and I got a call around the first of October for my appointment with the surgeon and it was for Jan 5th, I was so disapointed at the long wait, it did go by fast tho and I allready have my surgery date Feb 25 th. I really hope you do not have such a long wait but I did want you to be prepared just in case. I started with all this a year ago, but I needed two sleep studies and then the cpap machine. I wish you the best and hope for a quick surgeons appointment.

Really?? That is a long wait.  Sarah my nut told me they are booking about 30 days out right now.  I hope she is right.  *sigh*

hi erica ,
my name is david , im lurker i guess ,, what ever , anyways i went thru casco bay there great people there , and as far as dr wolf well worth it , just wanted too say hi

Which Dr. do you have I go to the same place with Dr. Wolff and I really like her. I am on the same diet and I have my surgery Feb. 4th and am very excited. You are eating just about the same things I am and I have lost 10 pound in a week. I eat more now than I did before I started this. I got my Dr. appointment about a month after all was said and done but mine was at the time when everyone wanted to get it done before the end of the year. Also I started my process a year ago September I wrote it down that is how I remember. So you are way a head. It will be hear before you know it now. Good Luck

Yes I will have Dr. Wolff also.  I contacted Casco Bay via email and they are  booking in March right now...so that isn't too bad.  Hopefully they will call me any day now :)   My nut keeps saying they have to wait to an insurance approval before the appointment, but I am pretty sure they don't do that until after the 1st appointment.  So I have no idea.

I weighed myself this morning and I am down 10 pounds also! 

I'd like to eat a few fresh meals at supper ~ so I am going to try to figure that out.  It is just so easy with the frozen meals....but I am getting a little edgy with them LOL. 

Good luck on the 4th!!! That is right around the corner :) 

2 things,
first:  I agree with the frozen meals being easy, but can't help but thing home cooked is better for you and cheaper. BUT, I'm sure the frozen meals are so much more honest with the smaller measurements.  I'm sticking to home cooked for this week anyway.  Not sure what I will do on Friday, it is a "Planned play Day"  my birthday and me and DH are meeting my sister and her DH at Sunday River, bar hopping and just having a great day.  so I"ll try to be good.  BUUUTTT???

Second:  Now look at you guys, isn't this site awesome.  Some of us, and many before us, i'm sure and many after us, meet up with folks going thru same process, compare notes, and dates. and just learn so much and the support is great.  Even tho I get much support from my DH, he dont' know what I"m going thru, like you guys on here.  SO enjoy, post and Thank you all for being MY FRIENDs>>>>

Hi again Erica,
I have Sara as my nut also I love her she is so nice, I am glad to hear that you wont have such a long wait as I did, that was a little frustrating. I would tell them I wanted to be on a cancellation list too. Sounds like you are doing great, good luck and hope you get that call real soon.

Hi Erica

Another lurker here. I just had my appt with Cobean and as soon as I was done all my appts on the list they gave me and got my sleep study results I called and asked for an appt. with the surgeon and they scheduled me one. I called in dec and got a appt Jan 28th. I am now waiting for ins approval then will recieve a surgery date.

I thought this might be helpful they are all so nice and I think they understand all of the reasons why we call email and check in  . . . lol.
