Where are my Sleevers? The ones that had it this year or are preparing or waiting on insurance approval. Where are you having it? Whose your doctor? How's it going so far? Anything you would like to share.

Yes I will gettinbacktome! I am hoping they can work me in because I have a busy schedule, travelling often over the next few months.

I see you are having surgery at Lcmh too .

U y'all are on the right path and having someone to talk to about ur journey makes it easier I think........... I'm grateful to have a great support team.... I was sleeved 11/20 and doing great still............................ I live southeast Chicago...........

Ok Chicago sleevers! Some have expressed interest in us meeting up. I want to plan something for us to get together. If anyone is interested, please add me as a friend. I'm hoping to get something together in the next few weeks. I think it would be a great time.

Got my date, April 22nd!

I have already been aporoved and I will be having my surgery at UIC with Dr.Elli. My next appointment with him is on March 19th and I will find out my surgery date then. I'm hoping for early April!

Hi I will also be having my surgery with Dr. Elli on April 10. I have to start my pre-op diet in a few days and I'm more nervous about that than anything else. When is your surgery? Good luck to you.

April 10th at University of IL Hospital with Dr. Elli. My pre op diet which I have to start in a few days is what's really making me nervous. Good luck to all.

How is everyone doing ?

I'm slightly reluctant to say this because I haven't been sleeved yet but is anybody in the Chicagoland area interested in an actual face to face support meeting?

if you start one I'm down we can have meetings at my salon, send me a msg let's chat

Hey cutiepieinchi. I'm good. On my way out for hubby's birthday. He bought me these beautiful dresses for Xmas. There is only one I can actually wear comfortably. 4/21 can't get here fast enough!!

Hi... I was sleeved 11/20 but would love to come and help........... I know the other ladies are trying to get something together......

Jenelle I will be having surgery April 22nd. I am getting so nervous about the pre-op diet and the surgery. Did they mention anything to you about what kind of post op diet we will be on? My mind went blank for some reason when they asked if I had any questions.

I was sleeved Jan 14 at Northwestern. Down 23 pounds since surgery, -28 since pre-op diet, - 39 from my heaviest weight. Since Christmas I have gone from size 20 to size 14. I am very glad I did this.
