Congrats you are going to love your sleeve!

I was sleeved in Feb. and had tons of problems and had to have a couple more procedures, but here I am 4 months out down 66lbs. My energy is returning so I am doing more in a day and falling asleep a lot easier. Trust me some time it gets harder before it gets better.

You are going to do great! Like everyone said that pre op diet will really get to you!

So good to hear how amazing all my Feb sleeve buddies are doing! I am doing well as well taking on more activities and finally entering onederland! It feels so good to have some of the sluggishness gone. I still get tired now and then but I am managing!

My surgery was 2/6 and I am thankfully down 50 lbs and entering onederland! Keep up all the amazing work my Feb sleeve buddies. I enjoy hearing about your progress!

Hi. I am one step away from sumitting all my information to BCBS and I am a nervous wreck. I have been reading so many stories of people being denied so, I was wondering if anyone had any experiance with my insurance provider? Any and all comments welcome please I need HELP!!!

Things are going really good! I am having a hard time adjusting to regular food but other then that I am happy and losing!

Just got Approved it only took two days!!!!

If you have any family history of diabetes, high blood pressure the insurance company will look at that too! I am low bmi!

Prayers said and fingers crossed!

How are you doing?

I was never told anything about 5,000 they just had me pay my hospital fee and their dr fee which came out to be 1,345!

I am not sure what the weight loss clinic sent in but I had to get a physc. aval, visit a nut, get my primary to write a letter, a sleep study, and history of obesity. I think that might be it!

Congrats on your big day!! Praying for a speedy recovery!!

I am doing really good I just got out the hospital yesterday. "Yay" I am still having a hard time breathing and I have to take blood thinners and go to my PCP every week for the next 6 months. I am just really starting to have to drink on my own and it's really hard but I know I don't want to go back for dehydration!

It honestly is just one of those fluke things that can happen! They gave me the blood thinners in my belly like they were supposed and still... My poor Dr feels so bad though even though its not his fault and I swear I am being treated like a queen in here!

I was up walking 15-20 mins every hour. The Dr even told me he has never seen anyone walk as much as I was!

I feel great honestly and I feel a lot better now knowing what was wrong and that it is fixable!

Yup they admitted me and they are keeping me at least for the weekend and then I will have to remain on oral blood thinners for a few months!

Yea I'm at the hospital right now my Dr thinks I might have a pulmonary embolism and that would explain the not being able to breathe!

yes she has tons of recipes for this stage!

The world according to egg face.... This is only one I her protein ice cream mixes!!! Yummy ice cream instead of forcing down a protein shake count me in!!

Here I am post op finally and I admit it has been a rough day. The gas pain has to be the worst but they were right you can literally walk the pain away. I started walking about an hour after I left from the recovery and haven't stopped. I walk at least 15 mins every hour and I feel fab! The only thing they will give me until tomorrow is those little medicine cups half way full with crushed ice. That is fine with me though cause food is the last thing on my mind. They also changed my diet to just clear liquids, no protein for a week or vitamins which is weird. The staff has been amazing I have a giant private room with free cable and wifi.... Well off to get some rest an I promise to keep everyone updated!
