Awesome you all are near one another

Mine approved in 2 1/2 hrs. I have BCBS of Ky thru my husbands employer. Was totally surprised it was so quick

My liquid diet starts tomorrow. Surgery October 15th

Mine is also just 6 months but every plan is different. My husbands employer has an add of this. All BCBS is different.

Mine is a 10 day liquid diet that's all. I've lost abt 10 lbs past cpl if months by walking. My tentative date is October 19th. My start weight was 217 first visit I'm 5'3"

My date is tentatively set for same day. But will find out set date tomorrow

I'm here in Ashland

I think you are doing a great service!

I'm in Ashland, ky

Great news ladies! Almost to the end of mine too. 3 more weeks til I get a date. Good luck!

Bobbe schu I pray you get approval. Fingers crossed!

Pinlgirl1234 you said it! Mostly they don't want you to feel better abt yourself cause they don't. Lol. I also haven't told many other than my family. They are all happy for me. Yes they have concerns like any surgery. But positive! Especially my husband. Hr knows how much this means to me

.

You can do this! We have come so fat already...

Awesome progress ladies! Can't wait to be on the other side. One more month for me.. Impatiently waiting

Lol

Several people have said the same thing...."you don't need the surgery" yes I do! I weight 240 lbs and I'm 5'4 I am morbidly obese. I've decided not to be so forthcoming with people, to much negativity.

Know the feeling! I'm 5'3" 209. But have several co morbities and 5 failed back surgeries. So I need to lose this extra weight I've gained past 8 yes because of all that to help me walk better. All my tests are finished, one more nut appt on Sept 9th. Get my date that day. Been a long 6 months! All worth the wait!

Surgery date in exactly one month. Wow. Feeling nervous, anxious. @@notforthefaint the comment you made "just think we'll all be at goal weight in a year" really struck a chord for me. I've been trying to work past my anxiety about whether or not I am making the right decision, and that really helped to remind me of why I even started this journey. So thank you!

I also get my surgery date on the 9th of September. Will most likely be last week of month

Now I am feeling that excitement again. Yay!

Been trying all different shakes for months too notforthefaint. Also thought it would be preparing me for surgery.

I know, just really anxious. Can't wait to start my journey to a better quality of life. Already made lits of changes to prepare. Everyone in our group has dates and I'm so glad for them. But makes me want mine badly too. ????

Great news all around. Still waiting for my date. Very nerve wracking. Won't seem real until then. Trying to keep my spirits up abt it tho.

Mine is US Dr

I am from Catlettsburg, ky. Near Ashland. Biggest near town which isn't really big at all. Lol

Wow!! Lots of September sleevers! Just think this time next year we will all be at or near our goal weight! Glad to be a part of this group!

Seems like it is getting more real. My husband actually wanted to do another vacation next month and I had to laugh. Gonna be a very busy month after the 9th for me getting prepared. I don't think he realizes. Wish I had someone here to pair up with too. Tried reaching out today at Drs office, but no one acted interested. Think I will try at the meeting. Thanks so very very much to our September Sleeves! Don't know what I would do without you all!
