A guy fromNJ here. Scheduled for May 24th. Only cardiac clearance left on the list. I have been on the md supervised diet for more than 4 months, it has been quite a bit of change in diet and mind. The whole sleeve thing is really starting to get "real" now

Wow I'm from ct my insurance is pretty quick I just started the taking the Vitamins in the morn for a couple weeks then I start my 4 week per op . I have a BMI of 39 looking to lose about 80 lbs an get me off all these meds I'm on. I was all for the lap band then went to seminar and was blown away with the sleeve.

I've got much farther to go, BMI about 55. I have lost 19lbs on the supervised diet so far.

My insurance BCBS MN covers almost everything, but requires 6 mo supervised diet. It seems a bit longer than is really needed. But it has given me time to learn, adjust and realize that the Chinese Buffet is not ever a good choice, and something I CAN live without long-term.

I have had to go through Pysch, Gastro, sleep, and PCP clearance, and finally Cardiac. It has not been too bad, but you really have to want it. I have seen more Drs in the past 5 months then in the previous 10 years.

I already did stress test psycology test thurs and gall bladder MRI next week that's good that you started the diet to learn how to eat and a least try the different kinds , I just started trying different ones . I have always been a bigger person just hoping this will give me the start to change my whole life
