Hi my name is Jackie from Miami fl! My surgery is scheduled April 2 and I am super nervous! I hope I get the approval from the insurance... My fiancé doesn't talk about my surgery at all unless I mention something about it. In definitely looking for others to talk to about my journey.

Still figuring the site out!

Oops didn't mean to copy that, phone is acting a little strange! I would love to have someone to talk to that understands how I feel fit2bme! It is crazy how life works out! I have tried to explain to him that this is for me and my girl, not to find a man! I am just tired to feel down on myself and having no energy! My daughters deserve the best mom in the world and I feel I am selling them short so to say if I don't love myself!!

I have an appt with my doc Apr 14 for clearance. Then it's the final group and then surgery. I'm ready. My daughter has prom at the end of April, I guess I will wait for the first week of May.

I live in San Diego County and am scheduled for surgery April 9th. I should get my insurance approval early next week. I am nervous since I am going from band to sleeve, so it's not a slam dunk like my first WLS approval. However, I have pretty great insurance and I am staying positive that I will have surgery in 3 weeks time. ????

So I just joined Bariatricpal and it is really nice to know there are so many people out there that I can talk to about my experiences. I am waiting on my insurance to approve me, they said I should know sometime this week. So fingers crossed I will have surgery some time next month. I would like it to be the week after easter if possible. I already started my pre-op diet early just so I could get a jump start on it. I am definitely nervous, but excited at the same time.

I am officially an April sleever. I was scheduled originally for March 31st but the office just called and said they needed to postpone it so April 2nd it is.

Drags on my countdown a bit but I've waited years, I don't think 2 more days will kill me.
