It is now 2016 almost 2017 and this is the 2nd time I am attempting to get RNY Surgery. The first time I failed to get correct documentation from my PCP for surgery and relocated to a different city that was almost 5 years ago. Since then I had another baby who is 1 yrs old and I gained 50 more lbs during pregnancy and being Diabetic(insulin). Now my BMI is at a 56. I have choosen a surgeon already and have been to his office the last 6 months for Nutritional Visits. December should have been my last visit but since I only lost 2 lbs the whole 6 months he wants to see me another 2 months before surgery. He said that he doesnt want me to see me fail by getting a quick fix and then gaining all the weight back 2 years later. I'm not only very obese but I have other co-morbid health problems like, diabetes, sleep apnea, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, gerd, depression, carpal tunnel etc. I just turned 40 years old 9 days ago and I am tired of being trapped in this body. Hopefully in February or March 2017 I will be having this surgery.
