Hi! I was just wondering if there were any June - July maybe even August sleevers around? My last app is May 7th or so and am getting really excited to get this moving. I have an app the 12th just a week n a day away then the final one, yes I know I'm goofy thats just how I get when I get excited! Anyway let me know, have a great day!

We moved the group from closed to secret to respect everyones privacy. I cant add anyone unless they are on my friends list so I will friend request you and then add you Brynley. Im sorry Emmyb2 if you will send me your name I will do the same for you.

Well, my insurance said yes.

Now I'm waiting to hear from the hospital to schedule my pre-op appointment and my surgery date.

I'm excited and terrified all at once.

@@honeybadger omg Congratulations!!!! ???? How long did it take?

My first appointment was at the end of January. My last appointment was April 8. My insurance approval only took a few days. It was submitted April 26! It was supposed to be submitted April 11 but the office has a lazy person in charge of it. I waited a week and a half and then started bugging her to death. She finally sent it in to shut me up.

I guess I have enough co-morbidities to make them think surgery is cheaper than all the meds I take.

I hope they call to schedule soon. I'll give them another day, then I might start bugging them....lol

I would too lol n you only had to have 3 months I take it?

Thanks, all. I look forward to sharing the journey with you!

Sure if you mesage me you fb name I will personally friend you and then send you an invite to the page.

My doctor said I could lose but not gain. Would any of you all be interested in joining if I started a facebook group? I saw one on here but I messaged her weeks ago to join and never got a reply back. I thought since we were all within a couple months that I might start one for us. Let me know if you are interested.

I would love to join a private group on Facebook. I hope to have my surgery next month. I did all my appointments but need one follow up with my pulmonary appointment next week. My name is Vanessa Lecoin on Feb.

What a weekend! Took 3 hours to put together my new grill on Saturday, but had some of the best kebobs ever.... chicken breast with 4 different colored bell peppers, onions and mushrooms. We also built a fire in our fire pit for the kiddos to roast marshmallows.... no matter how badly I wanted one, I held back. Honestly, I was having such a good time watching them that I didn't think about it much.

What did everyone else do this weekend?

Yes, and I already had those three months because I was documenting weigh ins monthly with my provider. I work in the office she's in. She knows about the surgery obviously, but she knows my desire for privacy so it's all being kept quiet.

She has referred several patients to this surgeon and knew the procedure. Most insurances require more than three months. So we started the weight counseling. My insurance only needs three months.
