Thank you

Woohoo!!!

Update: I got my approval about a week ago. My surgery will be June 16th .

According to them,that is the policy. They will not give out leave pay if they cant confirm if you actually had surgery.

My doctor says walk walk walk! After 4 weeks we can start to weight train. I will probably go to the gym for light cardio

My company is so horrid with the leave process. They won't let me request a leave until 2 days before surgery ,then they will be calling the hospital to insure I actually had surgery.

I am so sad to hear this

No problem

There is a thread for ds.it is under the "other types of weight loss surgery" section.

I'm June 16th

I think we all are passionate about the surgery we have chosen/had. Its all about what you want and what will work best for you.

Oh ok..

I will say I went to my appt fully ready to get the sleeve. My doctor told me I am a great candidate for bypass and that because of my reflux ,he would not recommend the sleeve. I think both options are great, you just have to go with what's best for you.

Ok awesome

Wow way to go!!!

I wonder if they make a liquid biotin..or is the pill small enough to take. I worry about hair loss because I have a mild form of alopecia ,but I'm ok with wearing a wig if it comes to that.

Congrats

I am also 28. I need to lose about 125 pounds or so. I'm a bit confused because my surgeon did not tell me that bypass was for 200+ pounds people.

Update: now that I've gotten approved,I've started to tell people closest to me. I still have a lot of family that doesn't know.

I was all set to get the sleeve until my surgeon told me that the sleeve could make my reflux worse . I think they are both great options. Good Luck

Congrats! I am scheduled for June 16th

I will be trying it!

Hmm not sure..I was replying to a comment haha.
