  1. I am so glad that we will be going through this journey together! Congratulations to those who are having surgery this month I am praying for all of our surgeries to go well and a speedy recovery. Time is going by fast!! It's January soon to be sleevers, are you ready?!?
  2. It's normal to be nervous! I started getting nervous too and I have 2 more months! Lol I know a few people who have had it done in Mexico! They all have had great results so far! You have less than a month!! I am excited for you! Just remember that this is for you! So that you can be in better health, to be a better version of you're already amazing self! As the time gets closer, focus of positive thoughts and becoming healthier! Many blessings!
  3. I know that seems so long but the time will go by fast. I first started looking into this with my current doctor was last December and it seems like it was last month I inquired about the surgery. What helped me pass the time was getting information, watching youtube and making sure I am mentally and emotionally prepared for this journey after surgery. I hope you are able to get your January date! Yay!!!!
  4. It will go by fast!!!

  13. I so wanna have a food funeral too!
  14. I just spoke with my surgeons office, she said for my insurance it generally takes about 2 weeks to a month for approval, but I am hoping that it will 2 weeks or less.
  15. I have a guesstimate date as well, but I'm just gonna claim that that's the date! Lol I submit my paperwork in on the 20th of this month! Praying for approval... now if my surgeon has an opening in January, I will take that. But February 20 is my guesstimate date, and that's what I'm going with! The waiting game can seem lengthy but it will be here in no time for you!
  16. Yees to that as well!! I've never been able to cross my legs so to be able to do that would be awesome as well!
  17. Omg! Yes to this! I work as a substitute teacher right now and the teacher's class I had to sub for last week was on 3 floors up.... needless to say I stayed in there until it was time to go home. I was soooooo winded walking up those stairs and it took forever for me to catch my breath. I started coughing and it was horrible. So yes, I am definitely looking forward to that as well.
  18. It's so exciting! I am looking forward to hearing more of you alls journeys as I also share my owns! I am rooting for each and every one of you! What is one thing you are looking forward to after surgery?
  19. Sending prayers for you, your surgery, and your recovery! Many blessings as this new beginning blossoms!
  20. That's when I want to schedule mine! 2 years ago on that date I was crossing the street when I got hit by a ford F250 and I was already big but gained a lot of weight from that. I want to have it on that day as bringing my life back to right. Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App So so sorry that happened to you!! Really hoping you get that date as a rebirth, a new start for your new life! *hugs*
  21. Hey! Hoping and praying you get the date you want!!! And will be praying for you during pre-op diet! I hear it's tough but am looking forward to doing it myself!
  22. Yay!!!!! So exciting!! Have you been taking a lot of before pics?
  23. Girl yes! It seems like it's been forever. I have a countdown and all! When I officially started this process a year ago. I switched doctors and everything. It took 6 months for my insurance to approve me getting started. Another 6 months of dietician visits. Now I'm waiting to submit and for official approval from insurance. I am going nuts too! I just want mid-Jan to be here already! Lolol have you been taking before pics? Everyone I know who has had the surgery says take lots of before pics. Congrats! Will be sending positive thoughts and prayers your way!!! So exciting! Will be praying you get that date!!! Yay! Lol congrats! Are you ready? A few more weeks and you will be walking into the new year a brand new you!!! Yeeesss!!!! Yay!!! So excited for you!!!
