Hi SunnyinSD. Congrats on your approval!! Looks like we might be sleeve buddies.

Thanks Wishes. I am super excited. It has been a long road. I am so looking forward to being sleeved.

Thanks Raine!!!

Hey Wendy. I like the name "July Firecrackers". I'm being sleeved July 25th.

Thanks Ms Lady in NC. I have to do a two week liquid diet that I start on July 11th. Surprisingly, I am pretty calm right now but am sure I will get anxious as my surgery date gets closer.

Hello Everyone. My name is Kim Stevenson and I am being sleeved on July 25 by Dr. Gersin in Charlotte, NC. I am so excited and can't wait to be sleeved.

Today has been a wonderful day. I got approval from BCBS of Illinois and I got my surgery date from my doctor's office. My surgery is scheduled for July 25th. I am soooooo excited and am looking forward to being on the loser's bench.

I can't believe it but BCBS of Ill approved me after only two days. My paperwork was submitted on Friday (June 3) and I called today to make sure they received it and the rep told me I was approved. I was so surprised, I asked her to fax me a copy of the letter. This has been such a long rode for me and I am sooooooo happy.

Good luck on your surgery tomorrow. Everything will be fine and we will be thinking about you.

Great articles. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the great idea!!

Congratulations!!!!

Hi SunnyinSD. When did you begin your nut visits? Good luck on getting approved and please keep me posted.

Hey Raine. I used Dr. V a couple of years ago and was very unsatisfied with the way the office operated. Dr. V was wonderful but it was difficult to get appointments and the office staff was horrible about returning phone calls and email. I am using Dr. Gersin with Carolina Weight Management and Wellness Center and have been totally pleased with them. I'm hoping to get sleeved in August. I have one more month of supervised diet to go.

Hello Everyone. My name is Kim and I am originally from Richmond, VA but have lived in Charlotte for the last 27 years. I have been married to my very supportive husband for almost 22 years and we have 3 children ages 20, 18 and 10. I am very fortunate to have my family's support as I a go through the process to be sleeved. I am currently in my 5th month of the 6 month supervised medical visits and I hope to be sleeved in August. I am also a preschool teacher and am an online student at UNCG.

I love your responses, especially the pandora bracelet with a new bead for every 10 lbs lost and the gift cards for clothing stores. Thanks for the great ideas.
