How long did it take to get a date after you were approved by your insurance?
I'm going to JFK....
How are you feeling? How was your overall experience?

@@JustJaime5 no regrets!!! 49lbs gone in 31/2 months! I probably should have lost more but I'm not exercising yet and I have a desk job... I'm very happy!!! I want to lose 15lbs before I start exercising!
Love my sleeve!!! <3

That's the attitude!!! You got this!!!

I had surgery last Monday at around 2pm and left the hospital around 7pm. !

Thanks all. I had my surgery 2 days ago! Still sore but almost no pain.

Feeling better today but weak. I can't wait to start soft foods stage

Everything will be ok! Hang in there ...praying for you.

Justjamie, Dr. Abkin is great! They have an excellent program in place. December will be here before you know. I waited 6 months because my previous insurance had a preexisting condition.
I feel better than yesterday. Very little pain, they did a great job. The only thing is getting my liquids down. Must be very careful.. Have to sip sip sip if I drink too fast I get nauseous and want to throw up.
But on the bright side I've lost 6 pounds in 2 days.

Coke & pepsi are poisons among many other addictive in the food industry that's why we are all now having this surgery. We need stop thinking about what we can't have and think what it's good for our body and health. I'm getting sleeved this Monday and I haven't had a coke in months it's a decision I made after watching a video on youtube.
It's poison!!!

I'm APPROVED!!! Omg!!!!! :) !!!!!

Thank you!!!!!! I'm just too happy!!! June 2nd....

I'm APPROVED!!! Omg!!!!! :) !!!!!

This waiting is torture!!!

I have no doubt you will keep losing. My sister lost 50 the first three months and the it got slow but she has lost 85 in 10 months that's so crazy!!!
I've been on a diet and I have only lost 12 pounds in 7 months .... Can't wait to get sleeved!!!!

Alexander Abkin... I hope to get approved fast too.

OMG !! My bariatric center just submitted my preauthorization to BCBS NJ!!!!
Please pray for me!
Anyone with BCBS NJ? Please let me know how long did it take to get approval?
Thanks all!
