Insurance was APPROVED! Revision Surgery date 5/2/18

Hey guys!

I am from NY, Long Island area,and looking for other ladies that are going through the sleeve process in NY. I think it'll be a great way to support each other, share things and ask questions!

My revision sleeve surgery was just approved and my sleeve is scheduled for May 2nd! (I had a lap band that didn't work)

Email me and we can go through this together!!

I am confused, you open with "Hey Guys", however, you only ask for ladies that maybe going through the sleeve process.

Maybe guys as a generic term and not that gender specific? Anyhoo anybody who wants to answer MINE please do, don't matter if you have antlers on your head, if you can help[emoji112],me on this weight loss journey, please chime in, okay?[emoji7][emoji106]]

Guys was used as a general term. No need to complicate anything here but also not interested in chatting with any men.

Thanks and best of luck to you.

Using the term "hey guys" is northern for "y'all." I grew up in NY and Va, so I speak both ;)

Just had my surgery on 2/14 - after my lap band failed - so welcome to the club! You're in the right place...people have been very helpful on this forum.

Thank you! How are you feeling post-op?

Just consider me the northern/southern translator ;)

I'm feeling great! So glad I am sleeved! I started gaining weight when my lap band failed, so I'm relieved to be on track again...

Awesome!!!!

I had my lap band removed in November and also started gaining back all weight. Ready for this sleeve in may!!! Are you taking any chewable vitamins?

I used to think it was Yoose Guys in NY until I found out it was Northern NJ after all. Oh well.[emoji12]Most of you Empire Staters don't think there's land beyond Buffalo anyway and I'm clear out in Ohio. [emoji173] you all anyway!

Yes! Let's keep in touch! I had my lap band removed in November! Now waiting for sleeve in May!!

The sleeve is quite different from the band. I experience more restriction, and I really have to watch out for sugar - anything too sugary makes me nauseous. There are other advantages, but the biggest one right now is I’m losing weight at a nice pace...


Starting weight 2008: 220
Surgery day weight: 160
Current weight: 148
Goal weight: 130
