I'm just wondering if there are any November Sleevers? I finish my insurance required 16 week weight management program the last week of October and should be sleeved by the beginning of November.

I'd like to have all of us support each other like people that were sleeved in other months did. Let's have fun!

Where are you at in your approval process, any issues thus far? Tell us about you!!

Thanks, same to you! Maybe we'll have more to join the group! I'd love to get to know others who are in about the same stage as us! I think it helps! :)

Are you doing a "diet" right now? I am headed to my primary doc today to discuss my surgery and all that jazz. Hopefully he will have some helpful insight for me! I'm ready to get this show on the road!

Hi!! I am scheduled for Nov 20th! It can't get here soon enough. I am in the middle of my 6th month insurance mandate. I really wanted to lose 20-25 lbs preop but I am struggling. I have the "I better eat it now before surgery" complex!

Yeah that desire for a last meal is definitely not a singular even. Everything in my mind has its right to have a last meal with me. Lol. But I need to get my head on. I'm integrating steps into my life now that should be a habit by the time I get my surgery. I don't want to be too overwhelmed post op. but good news for me...just introducing mindful eating back into my life...I've lost 1.6 lbs this week. I would like to get as far under 300 as I can before surgery so that it's not so hard on me when I go under aenestesia.

Hi! I am hoping to be a November sleever. I just had my band removed yesterday, and my surgeon wants me to wait about 4 months to be sleeved. I am hoping to sneak it in around Thanksgiving, so I can take less time off work.

Can't wait for Nov to get here!

I'm perfectly content with no turkey or all the trimmings this year. Getting sleeved is far more important to me. Besides its not what or how much you eat that matters...it's the people you spend the holiday with that matter. And I for one would love to spend it with the sleeved version of me. Lol.

I got my band the day before Thanksgiving three years ago, so I'm fine with skipping the meal again. I don't really care for turkey anyhow, and not eating means I can focus on football instead! :P

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
