January/February 2018 Sleevers

Anyone out there in the progress of getting approved and getting a date? I'm aiming for a January date but would not be surprised if it ends up February. Anyone else out there?

I’m hoping I am posting this correctly..

I’m waiting for insurance to approve, the waiting is torture!! Looking forward to this new adventure. Only a few people know because if it’s not approved I don’t want a bunch of questions about it; mostly because I will be devastated if it’s not approved. I would be interested in finding others who want to be a support to one another on this next journey.

My surgery is scheduled for 1/24. My insurance doesn’t cover anything to do with weight loss. I’m nervous getting closer to surgery date. Yesterday was my first day of my pre op diet. I’m sure I’ll have questions. This community is pretty great. I hope your insurance company approved you for the surgery. Good luck!!

I’m February 12!

My date is February 12 as well!

I am scheduled for VSG on 1/31. My preop liquid diet starts next Wednesday. I am so excited but also so scared it is all a dream and I am going to wake up to find I wasn’t approved after all. This will be the longest 2-1/2 weeks of my life.
