I live in Beloit, WI, but will be going through Froedtert in Milwaukee. I don't have a date yet, because I have to lose 27 pounds before Dr. Gould will do the surgery. Otherwise, I'm done with all of my pre-op appointments.

Well hi there! Welcome and congratulations :) I was just waiting for my insurance last approval but now they say VSG is not a covered service even though my Dr office called and had it approved. So I do not know where I stand at this point ither than SUPER disappointed,angry,sad etc. There is no other option for me. I refuse to have bypass and lapband will be too much running back and forth for fills over hour away.

Well keep in touch as we are really close(I am about 5 miles from Beloit) I use Rockford as a base as most people don't know my little podunk town ha.

Tstorm my appointment went good and she wants to go ahead with all the testing, so now I'm waiting for the referral sent to the insurance company to be accepted and I can move on to the next steps.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
