So my orientation for the Kaiser Permanente Options program was on Monday April 15, 2013. I had to take my youngest son because of a miscommunication with my husband on who was going to pick him up. Grrr... but regardless, I was able to make it on time.

 

I am going towards choosing the vertical sleeve option which seems to be the most effective and less dangerous.

 

I'm just really excited to start this process!!!

Just wanted to wish you luck! Originally I was wanting to be banded...thought it was less scary than permanently being sleeved...but the more i thought about it and researched it, the more the sleeve looked to be the way for me to go.

I hope your journey is quick and uneventful and you're on your road to being sleeved soon :)

Good luck! I had the sleeve on December 13th. It is the best thing I have ever done and would do it again. I will be honest I questioned myself the first two or three days after surgery - but by day 7, I haven't looked back. I have lost over 50% of what I need to. I lost 48 lbs and have 32 to go.

Let us know how you are doing and what you decide!
