375 Lbs Pre - Op

Hey there! I am currently on the road to being sleeved, I have four weeks to go. I am looking to hear from people who have been down this road already. What should I expect after surgery? How long did it take for you to recover? What rate are you losing weight/sizes? Do you have any helpful tips? I am shaking in my boots, guys! I. Am praying to lose about 225bs and its all together intimidating! Help!

I am currently looking for a Dr to start the process of getting the sleeve. Need to know what I need to do and what to expect. HELP IN CARTERSVILLE GA. PLEASE MESSEGE ME OR REPLY. DONT REALLY KNOW HOW THIS FORUM WORKS.

I would start with your insurance and see what they will cover and if you have a ppo you will have to go to see who is on their list. I had to go to A center of excellence in bariatric surgery. My insurance didn't require a referral but some do so you may have to start with your family doctor.

If you discover that your insurance does not cover or you don't qualify through your insurance there are still options for you. I am having mine done in Mexico for 4500.. includes everything except airfare. Visit the mexico/self pay subforum to read experiences from those who have taken this route.
