  1. Hoping October will be my actual surgery! Man its been a process! Phew!
  2. I'll be band to sleeve on Monday, hoping they can do it in one surgery!!
  3. May we know your sw and cw? You've done fantastic!! Look great!
  4. Thanks! Don't think they have my size! ;-;
  5. Also ask your doc if you can use chewable, I'm asking on Thursday. They are easier to find and the mint isn't bad at all and if you chew chew chew its dissolved before you swallow..
  6. My sleeve is on the 10th at the hospital, I wi be a revision from band. I got my band at the bariatrics center, however the insurance I have now covers sleeve if preformed at a blue distinction and that's the hospital my bariatric surgeon does surgeries at the hospital every other monday so idk if they will have them there but my endo is at the bariatrics office.
  7. Pretty in pink, I thought they also helped with the loose skin, by holding it in etc... Ill have to ask about getting one on Thursday when I have my endo!
  8. Fred Meyer for gas strips, I've heard. And the card is a personal choice. I didn't get or want one with my band and I won't either when I'm revised to sleeve.
  9. I'm a number geek so I understand and I love what about bob!
  10. June 10th for me! I hope the revision can be done in one!! Any of you Juners have a FB? I have a weight loss FB, it's under Rxtine Vsg!
  11. That's also what I've heard! It's all so interesting!
  12. And broke my halo, you're right that site is awesome! Before I posted I've done research and read a ton of info, overall is the same. So it sparked an interest and this why I asked!
  13. Thanks ladies!! So interesting how different everyone's is!!
  14. So clearly it didnt matter to me, but this site is available to ask questions and to support each other, not for others to lecture or assume why I or others are asking a question. A few ladies automatically assumed I asked because I was only worried about that before they even know what I knew. I pay a doctor alot of money so if they want to lecture me they can, or if they felt I ( and same goes for others) are only worried about size and not putting in work, they wouldn't allow the surgery!
  15. Lets set this straight. I am not fixated or only worried about Bougie size. In fact I just found out there were different sizes! I had already been approved and a date set before I knew.. The question came from pure curiosity! But thanks for that'!
  16. Just do your squats your booty will be fine!
  17. What size bougies did everyone doctor use!?
