I am just starting my journey. My surgery was 3 weeks ago yesterday. I have already gone down two (almost 3) paint sizes but my extra large calves are not wanting to go in the smaller jeans. Just wanted to see if there was any light at the end of the tunnel per say, lol. All in all I want to be healthy so it does not really matter but just once, I would like to look decent in a pair of jeans.

Good morning sleevers. I had surgery on 3/16 and have gone down two pants sizes which is fantastic, however I have lost no inches in my calves. I have always had large legs. Just wondering if anyone started with large calves and now they look close to normal size.

Saying a prayer for your silent need

That is awesome! Congratulations

I wanted to go to Bailey but my insurance does not cover WLS. I am going to Dr. Ronnie Keith and my surgery is on March 16th. If you do not mind me asking who is your insurance company. I have BCBS and they do not pay

Wow you look amazing. What was your weight before surgery?

March 16th

He and the staff were really nice when I went for my consultation. He is heavy and I wondered why he has not had the procedure himself. I would really like to hear from someone who actually had surgery with him. He does not have a profile on here and that kind of scares me. I mean this is my life I am putting his hands in.

I am self pay and officially have a surgery date of March 16th. I am excited and extremely nervous at the same time. I am starting at 360 and am really worried. I have wanted this for so long and now that it is a reality, I am terrified. Has anyone on the firm had surgery with Ronnie Keith?

Did anyone have their inverted gastric sleeve with Dr. Keith?

Thank you for the information. I was never told this. I know it is for my own good, I just did not understand why. Thank you

That is kind of what I was thinking. Three weeks is a long time. If I could live on liquid, I would not be in the position I am in.

Had my first meeting with the doctor and they said I had to be on a liquid diet for 3 weeks to shrink my liver...wait what? That seems like a really LONG TIME. I am a big girl and I am terrified of the liquid diet. I am a self pay so I have to pay thousands upon thousands of dollars and I am not sure I can make it three weeks. Anyone else had to be on liquids that long?

How did your surgery go?
