Woo hoo! I am so excited! Can you believe its only a month away?! I look forward to meeting everyone who will be there at the same time! Do we exchange phone numbers or email addresses? I will be alone and from the sounds of it day two and three people feel well enough to go out shopping!

I had my first visit yesterday. I was expecting to maybe have surgery 6 months down the road. I was told yesterday that I could expect July or August. Mostly it will depend on when I can get in for the psych eval. I've thought about surgery for many years but my insurance would never cover it. My husband had been saving $ for us to go to Costa Rica. But his insurance now covers bariatric surgery and all of my previous diet attempts count towards the 6 month diet. So now I'm both nervous and excited.

I'm from Massachusetts, being sleeved at Tobey Hospital in Wareham, MA. At my last surgeon consult, I was told to expect approval in late June/early July, with an official surgery date sometime in July...it's really happening! I'm itching to get that date set in stone, it's so hard to be a patient patient.

So what is everyone doing to prepare? Are you neurotic like me and already thinking about what to take to the hospital? :D And did someone say there's a Facebook page for July sleevers? I'd love to be added to it!

Hi everybody, screaming all the way from Louisiana to let all now just found out this morning that I got approved by UHC and my surgeons office called with a surgery date of July 2nd. So excited yet a little nervous because it's major surgery but I've wanted this for a while and I can't wait.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
