  1. I just found out on Wednesday that I am scheduled for 3/23! I'm really, really excited.
  2. Thank you to everyone for your responses! I really appreciate it. I have pretty bad cellulite in my legs and even worse varicose veins. These may need to get looked at cosmetically once this whole process is done.
  3. I'm in the beginning stages of the (pre) pre-op process. I was wondering if anyone is able to share their experience with cellulite and varicose veins after their surgery? Any improvements? Changes?
  4. Hello all! I have made the decision to undergo WLS (sleeve) and will be formally beginning "the process" today, when I meet with my to-be surgeon for the first time. To my understanding, everyone's process is different, based on their insurance and/or payment schedule. As of right now, I had to partake in a virtual seminar held by my chosen bariatric doctor. I will be meeting with him in person. Afterwards, nutritionist and psych appointments will be made. Can anyone and everyone, able and willing to, give me a description of what their process looked like so I have an idea of what to look forward to? Thank you! (AND I apologize if a thread like this already exists)
  5. Thank you! I will be going through my insurance. Hopefully. I know its covered and I'm fairly certain, health/BMI-wise, I am a perfect candidate. But we shall see! I hope to see updates on your journey!
  6. Congratulations! I too have made the decision to have the surgery, but I am in the early, early stages. I meet with my doctor for the first time tomorrow. Because you're a newbie too, can you tell me how you filled out all of that information under your name? (Current weight, goal, BMI, etc.)
