  1. So I went to my 1st visit in November 2014 and was given the BIG list of requirements along with the Sleeve Educational Book and was told not to return until everything has been done. My insurance has even made approval and I've even taken my EMMI class online. So I call the Dr. Office and they freak out I haven't followed up with my sleeve surgery doctor, when I was told I had to have wait till all was completed all my requirements. So now I have to have a follow-up appt which is not the pre-op and I have to do my labs over again since they're out of date. Now if they know I had been put on the 6 month supervised by my primary Physician why would they order those labs before hand. Now it's been about 8 months and my follow-up isn't until the end of next month. I feel like things aren't going within the time frame I expected. I need some positive vibes please??
  2. Welcome!! Congratulations on your surgery. How are you feeling?? I haven't had mine but I see alot of negative comments about nausea, constipation, hairloss, and other things after surgery which makes me have second thoughts about surgery. What are you experiencing??
  3. Lol, all these ideas crack me up but you never know, maybe that will teach her a lesson. One thing I'm certain of is KARMA will catch up to her!!
  4. Congratulations ZoeyBear!!!
  5. This exactly why I don't want ANYONE and that includes my family to know about my surgery, some people just don't understand what we go through. All they're good at is Judging you and your decisions.. pretty sad isn't it.
  6. How Exciting!!! May you have the best of luck..
  7. I have not seen a single person on this website that is from New Mexico.. Is anyone from NM out there??
  8. Awesome!!! Y'all are so lucky, I'm still waiting to set up an appointment to set a date for my Sleeve and start my pre-op.. Good luck!!
  9. Awesome Julzz!! It's wonderful to hear all went well with your surgery .. keep us updated!
  10. Thinner - Me I had my last appt. And received my approval call today. Lokks like the time is getting closer. I'm very excited!!
  11. YourGonnaHearMeRoar I received the approval call today, I'm Super Excited!! Now I have to wait on the call from Surgeons nurse. I have "Molina Salud". They're paying 100% full cost for surgery.
  12. That is incredible LilMissDiva!! This is such a motivator.. Did you have to do a Tummy Tuck and all?? I'm quite scared to have to end up needing that. Even the thought of it scares me.
  13. How did you give up white flour and sodas?? I'm struggling with that and motivation to exercise. Although I'm still waiting on insurance approval. I need alot of motivation and self-control.
  14. I'm on the same boat only it's been 8 months already and I am still waiting on insurance approval. I wasn't put on steroids though and have lost a good 70 lbs but I see myself the same. Why is it that everyone else can notice and I can't?? Idk if this has happened to any of you.
  15. I haven't had mine done, since I have one more Dr. appt and all other requirements. Then my paperwork will be sent for approval. Can't wait!! I hope it goes as well as yours has.
  16. Congratulation!! Sounds like your Surgery went very well.
  17. That sounds like you've made a wonderful choice of being active.. your very inspirational to all!!
  18. You are a true inspiration!!
