Today I got the call saying I was approved. Shatty part is I have to wait until April 17 because my surgeon is booked until then. Anyone else looking at April as their month? My stats are 31 year old female 250lbs 5'5". Pant size 20. Lowest weight after dieting was 165lbs. I did ivf and hormone treatment for sometime and gained a significant amount of weight. My procedure will be at Princeton hospital in nj by dr chau

I'm on April first, so my countdown is really ticking and I'm starting to get really anxious. Part of me is happy and part is like, what am I doing? I'm going to cut part of my stomach? I'm going alone to a foreign country to purposely hurt myself (well, temporarily). I know it's for the best but I am still anxious.

I am scheduled for my VSG on April 9th with Dr. Lopez in Tijuanna Mexico, the anticipation is KILLING ME! I am 31 years old, 5'6" 280 lbs size 24pants and 3xl shirts...

Hey! I'm set for April 30, just got final insurance approval in the mail, one last nutrition class for post eating info. So excited and ready!

Hoorrrrraaaayyyy! Hi April Sleevers. I'm April 16, in MX. 5'2, 205 lbs. I just want to get it over with, I have tried MANY other things and I am just miserable. I want to be healthy and right now, I'm not. Just bloated and disgusted. Funny thing is people are like your not that big. Really? Cause my BMI is 37.5, I have high blood pressure and sleep apnea. So thanks but I want to take control now before it gets any worse. According to the Dr.'s, I am Obese - Class 2

I here you Cherrytree! I am 5'3' and 215, and sometimes I ask myself if I am big enough to have this surgery. Then I remind myself how different life will when I'm 80-100 pounds lighter. I haven't told anyone except my husband and kids. I feel like I should tell my family (parents, siblings, in-laws) because they're pretty supportive and we have a good relationship, but I'm worried that they will tell me not to have it done. So, I'm waiting until I have an actual surgery date booked to spring it on them.
