Recommended Posts

Hello, I just got approved yesterday. Have not set a date yet. They said Nicole the scheduler would be calling later this week!

Very exciting to be cleared for everything! Welcome to the group! I will add you to the unknown date list and move you up when you confirm a date!

I don't have a firm date yet but should be early December. I started this journey in late February. All my tests are done, 6 months of NUT is done. I have been approved by insurance and will get a firm date next week. I'll be 64 on Halloween so I'm probably the oldest one on this journey.

Welcome to the group and congrats on getting approved! My brother's birtday is Halloween too! Happy early birthday to you!

We haven't posted a lot of ages on here so not sure what our group age range is. Never too late to try to be the healthiest we can be!

I will add you to the unknown date list and move you up when you confirm a date!

I'm getting sleeved in Puerto Vallarta on December 12th. I will be revising from the band to sleeve. CW is 254 lbs and I'm 5'4" and 33 years old. My highest weight pre band (2005) was 293 and I got down to 209 for a split second before my band slipped and was then replaced. My GW is 150-160 lbs. Looking forward to getting to know you all while we anxiously await this new journey

Wow!! 62 people so far! It's amazing to know this number will grow as more people get their dates closer to December! Everyone should have a sleeve buddy for their specific date (hopefully)!

I go tomorrow for one of my last three visits before surgery. I'm nervous I doubt I have lost any this month has been rough on me. I lost my grandma who was like a mother to me on the 10th . Then I switched jobs on the 15th. And now we are dealing with our apartments management because someone stole our rent money order out of the drop box. It has been extremely stressful this month. I hope I have lost something when I see the surgeon tomorrow. Wish me luck

So sorry you are having such a rough month! Also terribly sorry about your Grandma.

Even if you did everything to a T, stress is enough to throw everything off. It is what it is, don't add more worry to yourself worrying about the appt.

Hope you are able to get things smoothed over before your surgery so you can focus on recovery.

Keep us posted!

YAY....another December 11th buddy! I think if I am looking at the list right, at this point, December 11th is the most popular date for surgery! They told me yesterday that I wouldn't know until the 10th what time my surgery will be...they schedule them the day before...I just hope it's early morning...I'm the first one scheduled for that day so far!

Congratulations...isn't it such a relief?

Yay! Congrats on getting your date! I moved you up on the list.

I'm trying to get my date penciled in. I only have one more thing to do and I am self pay. Hope to hear back from the scheduler to see if she is willing to save my date!

Love this big group too!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
