  3. Sleeve to rny 12/29/14 because of GERD. SW 233 CW 202. Doing really well other then scar tissue makes it a little more difficult to eat.
  4. I had my sleeve to rny on 1/29/14 I'm doing really well other then a bit of left side pain I even dropped 10 lbs So I'm sure if I work hard and eat right this will go ok.
  5. You do not know what to expect lol. Sleeved 2 years ago little to no pain rny was the 29th and wow huge difference between the two. RNY huge left side pain harder to get water down I hear this is very common with rny so just a heads up
  6. Yes I've started the process. I have a edg to have on Nov 6th. Once they confirm the GERD it's off to have the revision that's the only thing needed to do atm the Doc said. I had called the insurance company they said all they need is a doctors necessity and then we're good to go. Sorry it took me do long Baller mom
  7. Lisa happy I'm not the only one with them odd and creepy spasms the cough from them is insane.
  8. Virgin sleeve not sure what that is but I had it two years ago no band before or anything. I have bronchial spasm from my gerd atm.
  9. I'm getting ready to do the same thing for the same reason sleeved 9/26/12 never lost more then 30/40 lbs . Lisa hope whays Divas face book if you don't mind?

  11. Wow it has been a long time for me to post lol but here goes I had the sleeve 9/26/12 and only lost 35 lb from it that was it. Makes it even more depressing that I paid out of pocket for it. I've had a few health issues and had to cut back on my work and I now have Medicaid Medicare I can't remember which one it is they are putting my family on lol. So my question is has anybody had the experience of Medicaid Medicare paying for a sleeve to bypass revision?

  13. Did we just pick up September 2013 people??? Omg I'm almost a year out lol
  14. Size 22/20 to a 12/14 I put on some muscle I'm ok with that a size 12/14 is nice. I have my tummy tuck at the end of the month. I will get lipo for the rest and boobs for my birthday that's my update. Think this would have upset me more if I had lost all this and would have been stuck with the saggy skin and boobs. I'm happy I have a awesome job that pays well For me to afford all the plastic surgery that I need and want. ????

  16. No they don't mind I seen over 6 before I picked the one for my work. A few were free a few cost me a consultation fee. I say start looking now it will take time to pick one you like. Care credit Does financing.
  17. The best I can say is Set up a consultation with a plastic surgeon you can get info tips and find out. Some are free to see some cost 100$ to see. I'm having about 10lbs of skin removed in September. I wear a size 12/14 now at 214 , but I'm 5"6. After it I might be a 10/12 but a very comfortable 10/12 not snug.
  18. I'm a September 2012 and I only have lost 35 lbs 2.8 lbs a month. I workout and eat well, but it won't move any faster them that. I have a tummy tuck to get done in September the Doc thinks it will do me good. We all loss how the body wants to do it we just have to deal with it lol.
  19. That By any standard is not slow. That is very good weight loss.
