Good luck with them. My mother had to have three orders shipped out before she got them all three weeks later. Apparently, they shipped them to the wrong address and had the wrong contact phone number for her. She corrected with them so that they could resend it and they still sent it to the wrong address again... the third batch finally made it to her three weeks later.... and the first two batches they neighbors finally decided to give it to us, after they had already opened the box... I am not even dealing with them once I have my surgery... no thanks. their customer services leaves something to to be question..

I am with the others. My insurance and doctors told me that your intake weight is what they go by. Be sure to check with the doctor and the insurance to see what their rules are on the situation. good luck

I am pre op and I fight a battle everyday. I wonder sometimes if after I have my surgery will that battle continue. I just know that at that point I am going to have to fight a harder fight. Its a mind thing for me and I just have to get my mind right because I don't plan on losing AT ALL. Good luck on your battle

Good luck, you will do great!!! Please keep us posted on your progress!!!

glad that you are feeling better!!! I really love that you took the time to make a video for us while you were down there!!! It was very informative. Thans for that!!! Take it easy and enjoy the loser's bench!

dont know about the driving part... but congrats on getting a date!!!

Congrats on your approval!

I am sorry that you have to cancel the surgery. That really sucks. I hope that you guys are able to figure something out so that you can get it sooner than next year. Maybe the insurance research will pan out for you... {{{HUGS}}}

we are sleeve buddies!!! I am getting sleeved on the 22nd as well!

good luck and thanks for keeping us posted!!! I love the updates!

I hope that she calls you back tomorrow with some good news...and if she doesnt call you in a timely fashion, I would be calling her back to put the pressure on her.... craziness.

I know you are excited to finally be there !!!! Update us when you can!

Good luck!!! You and I are getting sleeved on the same day!!! I don't have to start my diet until next Wednesday!!! But I am already thinking about my last supper... you will do fine!!! We will do fine!

good question... I am pre-sleeve but my S.O asked me that the other night..and I brushed him off because of course I was talking about something completely different. MEN

Good luck!!! Everything will be fine. Please update us when you can.

good luck tomorrow!!! Can't wait to see an update!

Amen to that. Mine will be a meal at one of my favorite places...Famous Daves!!! And it will be happening in 6 days!!! Can't wait to pig out!!

my pre-op diet will consist of two Protein shakes, a ton of Water, and a small sensible meal. I have to put the meal in the middle since I work outside and there is no place to make a shake or keep it cold if i were to make it at home. I am not looking forward to it... but it has to be done!!! Another member posted a picture of her diet instructions. I hope she chimes in. If not, I saved her picture to my computer and plan to use it as a guide as well

May 22 here as well. My username on there is fatgirlslim33

I have never heard of that but I most certainly would love to know more about.... one of my biggest post surgical concerns is the skin....so I plan on researching this and finding out more

We arrive on the 21st!!! And when you arrive i will still be in the hospital. I believe that Alma said that I will be back at the hotel on the 24th!!! So sure maybe we can have a chatting session over broth!!! awww that sounds like so much fun!!!

anyone else???? I see alot of people are meeting up or planning to just say "hey" but no one seems to be arriving and/or leaving around my days (no matter the doctor). Did I pick a crappy week or what? j/k

Yes I will be there. We leave on the 26th. When do you arrive?

I had one as well and the doctors scared the mess out of me with all the test and dopplers and medicine...no fun at all
