Hi! I am new here. I am suppose to get my surgery in April. I do not have an offical date yet. I have been to my all day evaluation, had blood draw done, and started a diet given by dietician. Today is my 5th day on the diet. Sunday will mark one week. By my scale I have lost 2lbs. Hopefully more will come off before my next appointment in March. I have decided to have the vertical sleeve gasterotomy done. Just trying to collect as much information as I can before surgery. Hopefully my approval will come soon.. I know be patient as my mom would say..:w00t:
