I am now 294 my surgery was 8/4/15 but I lost 23 pounds on the 2 week liquid diet . Had my surgery at Bailey Med Center here in Owasso Ok ..Hw 363 Sw 340 Cw 294

Hey Nikki, have my pre-op appointment tomorrow and surgery is scheduled for Tuesday. Kinda nervous and excited all in one. As of this morning I have lost 20 pounds on the liquid diet alone. The boxes you gave have been so helpful. Thank you for your help!

Do either of you attend a support group in Tulsa? V

I attend the support group in Owasso at Bailey Med center once a month.

I want to go to the support group at Bailey's so bad but I have social anxiety and am a major fraidy cat.

I don't know if I'm allowed to go to baileys support group. Dr Varnell is one of their main Drs and he's my dr but my surgery is at city plex. But their support group seemed very lacking when I went last month

The support group at Bailey is awesome I highly recommend it. I have been going to them for over a year and a half.

Everyone is welcomed to it even if you don't have your surgery at Bailey.

So excited for Graduation just got the email...

It is a nice event, last year I was only about 2 months out, this year it will be exciting to send in a before and after picture.

My "last" 3 month visit is April 23rd. I guess things will be sent off to insurance after that. I'm hoping things move quickly after that...I have Aetna so not sure how they are with approvals. Still undecided about which surgery though, I think that has been the worst part of this whole process lol!

How long did aetna take? Did they require the 6 or 3 month? Did Dr's require you to lose weight?

Hi! Okc here! I have my consult tomorrow but have to go to Texas because UHC insurance requires a center of excellence. I didn't see a forum for Oklahoma
