I'm 8 weeks out and would love to have someone to connect with that understands this process. The people in the support groups at the hospital are much older then me and I'm having a hard time relating to them.

I'm in the Milwaukee area. But I won't have surgery until Oct 23rd. I'm in my 30s, but most people I know who have WLS are in their late 40s or older.

I am in WI. Starting the process, going to my first seminar next month. Been doing lots of research. Hope to get surgery scheduled as soon as I can.

Who is your surgeon? Mine is Dr Rydlewicz.

Haven't chosen my dr yet. It will be done at Theda Clark in Neenah, WI.

I am going with Dr. Chua. He is the medical director of Bariatric surgery for Aurora in Milwaukee, which is why I chose him. I have completed all my paper work and aurora pre work- just waiting on my insurance to review the paper work and decide if they will approve me or not. Should know in the next few weeks.

My insurance will cover this for me. I'm so lucky! The more I read and research and take notice of how I feel, I'm so excit d to begin this journey. It will be a rough road with the life changes, but I have endured way worse!

Hi WI sleevers! I have made a secret Facebook group called pals that is for ppl doing vsg. I was hoping to make a more intimate community that is private for talking and sharing. Let me know your Facebook name if you are interested in joining so I can add you.

That sounds great! It will be nice to have confidants and sleeve buddies! I sent u a pm.
