    Woohoo!

    I had to 'bubble in' answers for 700 questions and then go back a week later for the 'talking' portion... Congrats on passing!

    Added Expenses?

    I had to pay a $35 copay for each of my 6 nutritionist visits and for my two psych appointments. And for surgery I have to pay $200 . So like $480 all together for me...

    Surgery and work

    I told my boss that I was having surgery and her eye brows shot up and she asked if everything was alright? I told her they were more than alright and that I'm having the sleeve done. And that I'm not telling many people about it so I'd appreciate her not saying anything. She asked how long I would need to be out for and I told her 2 weeks minimum (I work in child care and have to lift 2 year olds quite often) and she said she doesn't want me to chance it so she put me out for 3 weeks. I'm already getting my group of kids ready for when I can't lift them and my boss is being a lot more understanding than I expected!

  7. Nope. I can only find it online... I use a site called bjs bariatrics to order mine.

    Louisiana Sleevers??!

    I live just about in the middle of Houma and New Orleans. I will be sleeved on June 28, 2013! I'm nervous about all the potholes one the way home from the hospital. Lol
  10. My file has been submitted to insurance as of today! Now it's just to wait for the letter/ call of approval (or not)... I'm going to be on edge the next few weeks every time my phone rings! Lol
