  1. Don't chicken out!!!! The decision to have surgery was the best decision that I have ever made for myself. I just wish I would have done it sooner. As of today I am down 48lbs honestly, I haven't measured myself since preop and feel fabulous! I was sleeved 4/26 and was driving 4/30. I had a great recovery and have had nothing but smooth sailing. Good luck to you. This is best place to gain info, support, recipes and ideas!

  10. I started using Biotin a couple weeks ago in hopes of preventing hair loss. My surgery is next week but I plan on continuing it after surgery as well. I did find it in chewable form on line.
  11. I actually received my approval letter before the drs office did, within 2 weeks. I would try calling the drs office and then if they haven't heard go ahead and call your ins. co. Good luck
  12. Hii Jaime, good luck to you on your upcoming surgery!

  16. Congrats on your sleeve. I love your positive attitude. I'll be sleeved on April 26th and I'll need some room on that bench too! Good luck
  17. I agree with Lisa that everyone having some kind of surgery gets nervous and thinks "what if". I am having surgery on the 26th and I can't say those things haven't run through my mind too. Just say positive and honestly, I have found that reviewing this site has helped me quite a bit. Hearing everyone success stories, ideas and dos and don'ts has been really informative. Good luck to you.
