Good luck to all sleevers this week. I am finally going in on Wednesday!!! I have to admit the preop diet hasnt been fun...not because I have been starving but because to much of the same thing makes me sick (I.e. yogurts, jello). Hopefully I could get through weeks 1 and 2 swiftly. Pureed food looks good right now lol.

Wow!!! Your results are amazing and encouraging!!!

I have the same insurance!!! I read they take roughly two weeks with approvals so I am hoping to get everything submitted within the next two weeks.

Congratulations!!! What insurance do you have if you don't mind me asking?

Wow! This group has grown! As for my update, my endoscopy was easy and painless. That was the last of my requirements! Next up...submitting paperwork to my insurance company. I am in the home stretch. Surgery is still set for Dec. 18th.

I am on my way to get the endoscopy done. Last of the tedious tests before surgery (Finally) Wish me luck ladies!!! I am a bit nervous now. I will let you know how it goes in case any of you are curious about the procedure.

Is anyone taking vitamins and supplements now? I began taking a multivitamin and biotin a month ago.

Thanks!!! I'll be sure to try that route rather than buy a tub of Protein that tastes horrible to me after surgery. I am curious to try Isopure RTD. Its a clear liquid I can try in the first few days that will help getting the required protein in.

Hi everyone! I am new to the forums and am scheduled for December 18th!!! I have been browsing these forums for a few weeks now and am so grateful to able to read everyone's tips for success and experiences. So far, I only have the endoscopy left (scheduled for this Tuesday) and a NUT appointment in November. I am hoping all goes well and I am able to get everything I need such as vitamins, protein shakes/powders. So far those items are the only things I am unsure about....so many choices.

Hi!!! I'm also getting sleeved by Dr. Strom. I live in Hudson County. Surgery set for December 18th. Got my endoscopy on Tuesday and an appointment with my Nut some time in November to discuss pre and post op diet. Nice to meet you ladies :-)
