Hey there September sleevers! Any one out there?

Hi! I just started my journey and I am looking forward to chatting with those of you who are on a similar time-frame as myself. My insurance is Cigna so they require a 3 month supervised diet, psych eval and sign off from my primary (which I am worried about, I haven't seen him in 5 years so what if he wont sign off? should I find someone new? suggestions?)

I am aiming for an early September surgery date, my Dr. said it is doable! I am excited and nervous.

I have learned so much already from reading about everyone else's experience it has really helped to calm me down.

I feel like I am obsessed with this and it's all I can think about. I have probably watched 200 youtube videos so far. LOL

Any tips, tricks or advice is welcome and appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

    It seems like it has taken forever to get here but here I am! September 3rd! I leave at 4:00 a.m. for the hospital. Excited. A wee bit nervous and I haven't slept a wink. Instead I have been cleaning

    I don't know about the rest of you but I just had a moment where I realized that next 4th of July I will be nearly half my size. It made me *SMILE* Happy 4th everyone!!

I picked up some PB2 powder last night at costco, it was on sale and I couldn't resist.

Has anyone tried it yet? I was thinking it may be a good twist in a Protein shake.

I also want to thank everyone again that has jumped into this thread and commented.

Sleeve????

I just finished my last nutritional appointment and all my evaluations are completed. My surgeons office will hopefully be submitting my paperwork to my insurance company soon. I started my process in April and hope to be sleeved in September!!!

Started mine April 1st too

Hey!! I am going for late August or early September!! I can't wait!! && I am nervous a little but I am documenting the crap out of this journey on YouTube and Instagram once I am able to!!

However it would be nice for us to keep in touch since we both are going to be going through the process around the same exact time!! Let me know what you think!!

Sounds great
