Hey Blondy! I live in Pensacola FL....not far from you. I was sleeved on Thursday Oct 7th. Who is doing your surgery?
-
/thanks so much! i know i will get a little better each day! couldnt make it without all the encouragement i have received here!!
-
Cant believe how much that hurt! BUT i am feeling so much better each day. I am like a beached whale...cannot get up or down by myself--the fam finds this quite amusing. dont even try laughing...killer pain. I am still taking oral pain meds but not as much. I am getting in some Protein and Water. Curiously i am thinking about real food...the tv ads are ridiculous. never realized every other commericial was for a restaurant. I have faith that this is gonna all be worth it. first preop appt tomorrow.

I am so excited. I had my pre-op visit with the surgeon today. My surgery is all set to go for Thursday a.m. Cant believe its only 3 days away. Did not sleep a wink last night. Ive been looking at before and after pictures. Needless to say I am obsessed....
-
Thank you for sharing that with us...im eleven days away and feeling a little nervous. You just reminded me of all the reason I want to do this surgery. Heres to continued success! Joining you soon!

Only 11 more days until my sleeve. Cant believe it!!

Congratulations!! Be sure to let us know the details!!
-
Wow Gayle. Thank you so much. With my surgery right around the corner--16 days , I am full of questions and worries. That is such good information. Hope you are doing well. Keep us posted.

Kerri...I keep alternating between worrying that I will lose weight and then gain it all back and then some AND worrying that the surgery will not work for me and I will have done all this work for nothing. Still eating lots!! LOL. So glad we all have each other to worry with.
17 days until my sleeve!!
-
Congrats Yoyo!
-
18 days!! My doctor has not mentioned any kind of pre-op liquid diet. I am eating like a crazed fiend. Anybody losing sleep yet?:001_tongue:
-
Congratulations!! I will be right behind you on October 7th! Good luck.
-
That is amazing...you know employees in Doctors offices forget that we have no clue how these things work. She should have been much more sensitive. For heavens sake its like they forget that we are all paying their salaries!! Hang in there. The waiting is horrible but you will get your date!!
-
Boy this whole thing is really scary. I guess we all have this huge worry that we wont lose weight or that we will lose and gain it all back(as I have done so many times). I am hoping this will be just the spark I need to get me on the right track to leading a healthy, happy and LONG life! Good luck.
-
Isnt it exciting. I got my approval this week too! All that waiting and worrying---over! My surgery is October 7th....have you gotten a date yet?
-

Hi JC Mom! I too have Cigna. I did the 6 month was submitted and denied because my bmi was 39.6 and I had no comorbids. The very next day I went to my PCP and reweighed--got a letter from him also. Appealed! Took about a week but I got my approval yesterday! My sleeve is set for October 7th.
-
Hey guys! Just found out that I am being sleeved on October 7th! Cant believe this is really happening. I am having mine done in Pace Florida.
Three short weeks!

Hey there! I have my date October 7th, 2010. In Pace, Florida with Dr. Althar. So excited!

Wahoo!! After one denial(and appeal) Cigna did approve my surgery and I am slated for October 7th!! So excited.
