Ohio Sleeve patients?

I had mine done 3/19/13 and at Miami Valley Hospital. Any fellow Ohioans want to be VSG buddies?!

Yay, so happy for you! Only a step away from the biggest day of your life...it is a fresh start, new you! You will learn fast to sip sip sip chew chew chew...just after surgery sit up and even walk when you can litter patter up and down those halls..and trust me the more you're up and moving the quicker the air bubbles move up and you can start showing them you want to go walking and you can go home!

I was sleeved by Dr. Pitt through Fresh Start / Ohio Health at Riverside on 4-4. I would love to get a group together and meet once a month. We could do clothing exchange and talk about whatever we need to. I've noticed it's difficult to explain everything to everyone. It would be nice to talk to people who knew what you were feeling first hand.

I think that sounds like a great idea. I haven't been sleeved yet, still in the supervised diet stage. Hoping to get a date soon. I would definitely attend something on a monthly basis.

I would be interested in a Ohio sleeve support group......just got all those hoops jumped and submission to insurance is imminent!

Welcome!!! Everyone here if you're on Facebook there is a lady who has a secret room that she will add you to...no one on your page sees your posts or that you're a member. It's a great page for support also. Search for Elizabeth Warner here...she should be in my friends list. Look for her on Facebook and she will add you once you friend request her.

Just about to start the process, in the Columbus area!

Hi everyone! I am in the Cleveland area and just got approval to start the weight loss surgery program at Kaiser, hoping to get the sleeve surgery in 7-8 months. I am so excited, and it is nice to see that there are other Ohio people out there going through the same thing as me!

Submitted all my info to insurance this past Friday. After 6 months of supervised diet I am getting antsy!
