  • After a supervised diet since November 2014, I have finally been approved by my insurance company for the surgery. Scheduled for September 16th. Thank the Lord!

  • Well, I've done it! Sleeve yesterday. Just passed my swallow test, and am hoping for a cup of tea! Fingers crossed I can get home tomorrow. Pain not too bad at all. Good luck,everyone!

Called my case worker yesterday to go over some last minute details.

Turns out my surgery is on the 11th and not the 10th as I had originally assumed. There was a mis-communication when I booked my surgery to what I had told my case worker regarding booking.

Now I will be in TJ 2 days pre-op. Time to get in some shopping, sightseeing and POOL TIME !!

Makes me a tad nervous that I will only have 2 days post-op in the hospital instead of the optional 3.

Fingers cross there is no drainage issues before I get discharged and come home.

Sept. 9 my new life begins. Pre Op visit was yesterday and I am so excited that nervousness is not in my vocabulary.

I am Sept 17th. I start the liquid diet tomorrow and I'm freaking out - it just seems impossible. I will miss the food!

You can do it! Stay focused on the great reward.

Hi there ,

I started the process mid June...I was having problems with my lapband so they did an EGD and found I had a hernia. My insurance is covering that and I'm cash pay for the remainder.

Sept 14

Congratulations!!

@@pindoctor I'm in the same boat. Scheduled for the 17th. Waiting for my psych to be sent to my bariatric doctor so they can send all the info to my insurance. I was told my insurance company only takes a couple days to approve so I should be fine but I started pre op diet today. ???? went pretty good.

My surgery is tomorrow at 2pm and I'm going through so many emotions...excitement, fear...and HUNGER!! Seems like I'm the first of our bunch. I check in at noon and surgery is at 2pm. I'll be letting u guys know my status. For any prayer warriors out there, please say a prayer on my behalf for no complications and a speedy recovery. Until next time sleeve sisters...✌????

4 more days counting today of this hangry pre-op diet. Cannot wait for Tuesday, did my pre-admission testing on Wednesday and am good to go. Looks like I will be first up for the OR on the 8th. :D
