After all the troubles I've been through; my husband losing his job and, losing our insurance benefits,I have been approved again to have the sleeve. COBRA gave me a little hard time, but today I finally got my date set again,...its August 28th. I'm so excited, but scared.

Congratulations!!!!

Yes, cobra covers it because its a continuation of the same benefits I had. Counting the dayssa!

I'm happy for you. I understand you being scared I was also, I kept askig myself can't I just loose weight the normal way because I love to eat. But after I saw the results of my coworkers (almost every women in that building has WLS) I was determined to loose the weight. My daughter gave me her approval and that's all I needed. You Can Do It!!! I had surgery on 7/26/12 started @ 257 now i'm 1 day from 2 weeks and I'm 230lbs. I just can't wait to get to eating some real food and enjoy my 1st cocktail (dont judge me he's still working on me) LOL

congrats -that's awesome about the Cobra covering.....I know it's expensive, but so glad it worked out for you.
