I hope you get Approved soon! Good luck!

I pray that you have an easy Surgery and a speedy Recovery!

I'm an ER nurse. Thanks for the support

Hi Fellow Nurses, I got Approved! I hope to be sleeve by the time I celebrate my 25 year as a RN. So glad to join this group. Blessings to all!

I went through something similar with my Mother. She was also against me having the surgery. I suggest Educate them as soon as possible. Be kind. Let them know that it is laparoscopic surgery too. A less invasive surgery and more safer than than RNY surgery. And that the Lap band has problems so sleeve surgery is better and why. I just had this conversation with my mother. The conversation should have happened sooner! I educated her and she was okay but, first she strongly disagreed! Things will be okay. Keep your head up! Good luck!

Congrats You go! Good luck!

Congrats on your Surgery! So glad to hear how good you feel! Can't wait to be sleeved

If your BMI is 40 I think you do qualify. So Research and no your rights!

Praying for both of you to have an easy Surgery and a speedy Recovery!

Wow you look great! The weight loss is very impressive. Congrats

Welcome Glad you are here. Congrats in your upcoming Surgery!

My family member is a 3rd degree black belt at about 180lbs. So size does not matter. I say focus on what good things you are gaining.

OP From a woman point of view. You getting healthy is what matters. Sure get your exercise in but what you loose in weight your actually gain in other areas like increase confidence and hey U know. Skinny Sexin!!!!!!

Praying for all you who are January sleevers!

Also wishing you an easy Surgery and a speedy recovery!

Pray that you have an easy Surgery and a speedy Recovery! Good luck!
