  1. I am new to this site and can not thank everyone for all the fantastic post. That is what has made my final decision to go for the sleeve instead of the band. I am self pay and had to beg my husband to help get the money. To me I am worth it. He is more worried about me getting skinny and finding someone else. Anyone heard that one before? My surgery date is Nov 19. I look forward to lots of support on this site. Thanks and pray for me. :001_tongue:
  2. I got good news today. Atleast my insurance will pay for the pre op test. I was worried about that being extra that I would also finance. But ...God is Good All The Time. I do need to pray for guidance with my food issues. My husband is an awesome cook and loves everything fried. We have to change that habit. He said he would try to do the pre op diet with me so it won't be so hard. we will see how that goes. I think you got it right....eat to live... that is a good Philosophy to go by.

    Thanks...

    Surgery date!!

    I am a teacher. But under the conditions they will let me sit if I need after surgery. I will have 9 days off with Thanksgiving break. Do you think that will give me enough time?

    Surgery date!!

    Things are rolling very fast. Just this week got my surgery date. Today I have my next 3 weeks planned out. Monday I take off for Pre operative test. Nov. 16 Is pre admission and consent day with Dr. Avara and then Nov. 19 is the day. Less than a month... I am never one to miss work but this is soooo important to me. How much recovery time do you guys think I will actually need?:thumbup:

    November Sleevers

    Yes, November 19. Just got my surgery date. I am so excited. I have researched each night and just can't wait to have it done. I have a friend that had the bypass done but she really looks pale and has problems with reflux, etc. Do you have a date yet? :001_wub:
