Impatiently Waiting..... and waiting....
I have been on this waiting game since November I thought I would have been recovering by now but I haven't even gone to see the surgeon yet!!! I understand the process but boy this is so long I changed my mind a few times about which surgery I should have if any at all!!!

What to do?
I am there with you I started this process in oct 2013 I was gunho ready to go and I fail my psych and everything came to a screeching halt. I am trying to find out if the sleeve is the best thing or should I go for the lap band if the psychiatrist was right or should I go for a second opinion. I am stuck because all I need is another therapist and my cardiac test results and I am in there but I am trying to see if I can do it on my own I know I can but will it last? Will it last with the surgery? What if I get a leak? Will I survey that? Am I being lazy or should go for it and hope and pray for the best? This is what I go through everyday

surgery 1/28/13
- January/february Sleevers
Since I went to a new psychologist and I told them about my post pardum depression which I dealt with over 1yr 1/2 but I told him to much so he wants me to wait another 3months so I guess I will have to wait till march or April- Attention February 2013 Sleeve Buddies!
I am a little scared after reading the leak survivors story. I decided I am going to continue on my journey in-spite of my fear but I am gonna start the liquid diet soon and exercising even sooner so I can have better results- Any january surgery out there
So I have 3 things that need to be done 2 already done one is easy and the other is where I have issues!!! My psych I always new I was off by a little but not enough to fail a psych eval so now I gotta see a psychiatrist and do a third evaluation so I may not have surgery till mid February and the longer I wait the more I read into the leak survivors page the more scared I am- Attention February 2013 Sleeve Buddies!

I have a BMI of 41.9 I have shortness of breath severe back and joint pain. I been thinking about this for over 3yrs and I have a 2 yr old. I work on my feet all day at a hospital and I am in so much pain all the time from my hips to my knees back and ankle. I have figured out how to eat in small portions I need to hit the gym more but even with that I am not losing the weight like I thought I should. Since I started the program I lost 5lbs.- Attention February 2013 Sleeve Buddies!

My question to all of u would u change the decision to have a sleeve or would u do it again! Would u inform and encourage people like myself who are still in the beginning stages not to go through it with the surgery- Afraid to call
Congrats congrats!!! I am stuck cause my previous insurance denied me a sleep study so now I gotta start over with a new insurance and I am in limbo because my insurance change- X-mas pic 6 months later...
I have been going through hoops and till have no date for surgery and sometimes I just want to say for get it. This is the only reason I haven't backed out!!! Your picture is inspiring thank u!!!- Aetna Sleevers - Share Your Approval And/or Denial Experiences Here!
I think deductible starts every year so unless u can have the surgeon schedule u in the next few days u have to start over. January 1 is normally the start of insurance deductible or some places its the anniversary of the first month u started receiving insurance.- Any january surgery out there
I thought I was gonna be February but I meet with my surgeon next week and have My last nutrition appt. jan 15 so hopefully next month. I am hoping I get down to 160 by Memorial Day - January/february Sleevers
