I am new to the group, my surgery date is set for December 16th. Merry Christmas to me I am in North Fort Worth, Texas and would love to connect with others going thru this and that have already gone thru this. Looking forward to getting to know some of you.
I do have a question with the changeover VST is having to BariatricPal, have you noticed that everything transfer's over?
Hope you are all having a great day!

December 18th Is My Official Surgery Day !! Found Out Today & I'm Extremely Happy, Excited , and READY

I started in April i was finished my insurance requirements by July. I was denied initially because I was not on meds for my comorbidities. (Low bmi). I appealed and won in early September. I scheduled my surgery in December, they had dates that were sooner.

If a man speaks his mind and no women are there to hear it.....is he still wrong?
Wait....what was the original question?

Exactly- bobble head when tall people get too small!! Not doing it!

BACK2BARB78 and EBONISEKIM - you ladies are smokin' hot! Thanks for the pics!

Just over 5' 8 in a half and I am 168. Looking to be 153.

That was the great thing about scheduling in September - I got my choice of date and time. Going to be his first surgery of the day.

I have had this 12/16 date since September, hopefully that means I'll be the first surgery in the morning! I must admit I am getting more excited everyday!

Yes...appeal was accepted and I am scheduled 12/16/13.

I use my weight from my first bariatric clinic weigh in, which just happens to be my highest known weight. I say known, because I avoided the scale for a long time prior to that so who knows if I weighed more at one time. I always lost weight during my 3 pregnancies, but as soon as I was the only one digesting the calories, forget about it.

Here's a funny for you all...

I am a nurse. You do store estrogen along with many other hormones in your fat cells. Poor thing...hopefully things will level out for you soon.

Woo Hoo!!! I'm a VST Addict now!!!! I can now add this to my list of addictions.

I'm having my surgery in Vineland NJ. I am super excited!! Can't wait!

I liked your comment because of your date. I'm praying everything works out and you can keep your date...its a good one!

I'm scheduled for 12/16 with all of my pre-op stuff getting done on 11/25. Right now is hoping I get the money scraped up. I thought it would be all taken care of by now but a few emergencies have popped up. I really hope I don't have to reschedule! *sigh*. Self pay sucks

Wow..thanks so much for taking the time to do this for us,..this is great!

Ok, this is what I've come up with for dates. Let me know when you have a solid date and I can update the list!
