Howdy all!
I’m Jenn and I’m getting the gastric sleeve on Sept 11. This is a revision as I had a completely unsuccessful lap band 9 years ago.
I paid out of pocket for the lap band but the government is paying this time. I’ve been on a waiting list for over 2 years.
I’m trying to keep my excitement to a minimum as my surgery was scheduled for August but was canceled due to “technical difficulties” in the OR. They called with my surgery time and the cancellation of that surgery within 2 hours.
This was a huge letdown and I fell into a dark depression while waiting for a new surgery date.
I’m 42 and have been struggling with my weight since I was 12. That’s 30 years of tormenting myself!! I’m ready for this to work. I’m also ready to work to get it.
Good luck to my fellow September 2018 Sleevers!
