Newb To This.

I am anxiously waiting for my procedure. Per Medicaid I have to wait 9 months before they will pay for the sleeve. I have been a big boy my whole life. I was 6'2" in the sixth grade ad was right at 270 pounds. I am now 36 and I think I am close to 500 pounds I dont know for sure. No scales can weigh me. any advice on how to prepare myself for this will be greatly appreciated.

Hi and Welcome!

My advise........ do all the stuff they ask of you so they won't have a reason to deny you. Hope all works out and you get your sleeve :)
