Hi!! I'm new to the group. Just started my pre-op certification and plan on having the sleeve surgery in Jan 2013. I'm super excited to begin my journey. I'm located in Stamford, CT. Anyone in my are in the group?

Welcome! I am not in your area,but we are at the same place in the process!

I am 3 months into my 6 month medically supervised weight loss. Next week I am completing my psychological evaluations, PT, NP and nutrition appointments.

How is your process going so far?

Sincerely,

Sannah

So far its been pretty good. I have a upper GI scheduled for next week. Def not looking forward to it

I'm a scary cat and avoided Upper GI in the past and when I did have it was a piece of cake..u will be sedated u will be fine painless

I am 3 months into the process, as well. I am 37. I am looking to have surgery in Jan. So far, I have completed all my pre-op tests just need the 6 months completed. I, too, was nervous about upper GI but it wasn't Bad.

I have done everything possible but my psychologist didn't answer my weight loss clinic call.. That was a month and a half ago..they told me when I went. They have me coming once a month until im sleeved.. Hopeful we get a call back soon..

Then they will send my letter to insurance company..then I will meet my surgeon..guess what then I will get a date..7 months in now!

All my pre op visits are done my surgery is set for 1/22!! I'm on my second day of the pre op diet. This is tough!

Had mine on 8th feelling like a new man

Im so nervous!

Danielle it's the best thing you can ever do for yourself

I'm new here. I just received phone approval and waiting on the approval letter to reach my doctor so that a date can be scheduled. Yay..I am excited.
