Hrhlaurie - I tried messaging you but it keeps giving me an error. I'm in the Springs and was sleeved in October in Denver. I was originally set with a surgeon at Penrose and changed jobs and insurance so my surgeon changed too. I don't get on here much anymore so I might not see if you respond right away. You can friend me on Facebook if you'd like www.facebook.com/batmansmom Lori

I have an IUD that I'm about to get replaced next week. I haven't had a period since having it placed 5 years ago. Last night I started having cramps and sort of freaked out since I haven't had any in 5 years. I'm down 58 pounds and the thought did cross my mind about all that crappy stuff returning due to weight loss. Damn

Whatever you did worked. I see sleeve stuff now. Thank you!

Thank you, Alex. I changed my surgery type there but still only see band stuff in the current tab. I even logged out and back in but still band. Any other ideas to try?

My current is also showing band only... I'm a sleever. How do I fix this?

I'm Batman

My biggest deciding factor wad that I couldn't get past the thought of them rearranging my organs. Totally mental but enough so that I went sleeve. I'm not sure why removing most of my stomach wasn't so scary to me but your mind does odd things sometimes.

Welcome! There are a few of us here in the springs. I had my sleeve done 10/3 in Denver and I'm feeling great. It is a scary process with a lot of what ifs that come to mind but now that I'm on the other side I know how right my decision was.

Woops, sorry for the double post.

Not resolved for me either

And some of us can't reply from the app at all. This app is so disappointing

Surgery: Oct 3 Starting weight: 280 Day of surgery: 265 Current: 241 Total: 39 pounds Woop, woop! Almost in my 230's!

I had a coworker tell me to be careful and not lose weight to quickly the other day. I'm only 3 weeks out.

Medical billing is a bit weird. It's not technically overbilling. They bill or their "rate" but have contacts with insurance companies to get paid much less. It's usually figured into the billing systems so they know they are only getting paid x even though they bill out mega money y. It's like that in all aspects of medical billing.

How hot are you making your liquids? I have the GNC unflavored and haven't had any problems with clumping but I kept my liquids around 120-130.

I love the multi from them but hate, hate, hate the calcium wafers.

I don't even remember them putting me to sleep. I woke up super groggy on my way to the recovery room. I fell back to sleep and woke up in my hospital room. I pretty much slept the whole day after surgery but hadn't slept a full night 3 night prior due to anxiety. The nurses would come in and take my vitals but let me sleep.

I slept on my stomach a few days out. My problem was having a drain in that got in my way. My doc said stomach sleeping was fine if it wasn't uncomfortable.

I had a drain they removed at my 7 day post op visit.

Springs here too, sleeved 10/3 in Denver. How are you doing?

Pickes are the one thing I've been telling my hubby I've wanted since about day 3. How funny!
