Hi everyone! My name's Jennifer. I am fairly new to the VSG site and just joined this group. I am excited to find a Christian group - God's strength is what's going to be getting me through this, I feel.

I am pre-op and just waiting on insurance approval. I called the company on Monday and they said that it was in the final stage of approval, so I'm hoping that I hear something today. I'm thanking God for my approval because I KNOW it's coming!

Thank you for this group!

God bless you all!

Hello Sleevers!

I am scheduled for my sleeve on August 21, in Los Angeles, CA. It's been a very long wait, however I am thanking God that I can now see the finish line to this chapter of my book. Although I see this chapter closing I am anxiously awaiting what else God has in store for me. I feel like one of those lapband commercials "let your new life begin." See I have always been plump, not sloppy but plump, some may call it "big boned" but call it what you want, I WILL NO LONGER be defined by it! I intend to let my new life begin!

Be Blessed!!!!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
