January 2012 Sleevers!

Rather than keeping the old January (2011) thread resurrected, I thought it was about time to start a 2012 thread.

I'm scheduled for January 23, 2012, and just got my official insurance approval yesterday.

I am absolutely PUMPED about this surgery. I can't wait... I'm anticipating crazy nerves as it draws nearer, but for now, I'll ride the wave of excitement, thank you very much. biggrin.gif

    I'm tentatively scheduled for Jan 27th. Tentatively because I haven't submitted to my insurance company yet. I have my last weigh in for my MSWL on Jan 5th and it will go to insurance that day.

    My insurance company said they take no longer than 2 weeks for approval. So I'm hoping to be part of the Jan 2012 Sleevers. :)

    Hi All -

    I'm scheduled for Jan 25th at 3:30. I was hoping to get a morning surgery time so I wouldn't have time to worry. I'm also excited & a little scared.
