Update

I have now seen the Bariatric Team:  RN, SW, and Dietician and received a yes from all but the dietician (and she had some very valid points) and will have a follow up with the dietician next week.  I have also seen the surgeron (yes) and the internist (yes).  I have had a sleep study and met today with the sleep specialist.  I have "severe" sleep apena.  No surprise there.  I came home with a new boyfriend ...a CPAP machine...to try out...and will follow up with the respiration therapist and sleep specialist again and will also have another sleep study with the CPAP.  I have and continue to make changes in my diet...but that is not easy.  I hope to receive the yes next week and be able to book my surgery...and continue on making the changes to have a better way of life.

That's basically it for now...
