LOL! I'm 22 and everytone thinks im 16-18... So if i start to look older... I might actually look my age but all of the before and after pictures i've seen they look older when they were BIGGER and years YOUNGER after losing all the weight. Hopefully i dont look any younger... lol. I'd rather look older and to be big anyway.

I'm also curious to know the answer to this question. I'm having surgery july 27th, and i've also had gallbladder removed and 2 other various laproscopic surgeries... Good question!

I dont have to pay anything for my surgery, my insurance covers it at 100%- only had to pay the co pays at the inital visits. Also- i have to take a classon the 18th that goes over all the foods, and a list of groceries to get before surgery to have post op and i have a pre admin screening on the 15th for blood work and a chest x ray to make sure everything is done for the final okay on the surgery. Then I'll be on a liquid diet for 10 days pre-op. Hope this helps... this is what my doc and nut has told me

I'm also being sleeved on July 27th! Yay!

Thanks everyone for the info! I will definetly look into that webstie! 48 more days!

Hey everyone, I just got my date to be sleeved.... July 27th! WOOHOO! Now with that said, I have a class i'm going to be attending july 18th with a list of foods to get before surgery.. Well im a new single mom and money is somewhat tight and i plan on going shopping this weekend to stock up on things before the surgery gets here since i have some money now.. Anyone know of any good things to stock up on now... and genaric shakes that are not so yucky but are okay to use post op? any adivce and help would be great! Thanks! -S

Yeah, I also havent heard anything about a drain tube...?

Congrats on your weight loss! and thanks for the heads up on the movie... been wanting to see it!

So today I had my Psych evaluation so now I'm just waiting for the Docs to call so I can schedule the day for surgery. Right now I'm feeling really excited with a side of nervousness... I'm so ready to do this and change my life for the better. Its going to be a tough change... but im willing to do it. Just a few more weeks hopefully and I'll be on my way to healthy! -S
