I am from Maryland, and will be sleeved on September 9th. But what I would recommend is that you start doing is reading as much as you can about the sleeve so you can have a good understanding of what your post sleeve life will be. This site has some great information and wonderful people with lots of knowledge that they don't mind sharing with you. Also, most insurances may require you to take a few seminars, those are helpful also. Good luck to you

Congrats happy for you!!

Iim September 9th also!!! I'm super happy!!

Lucky pants we have the same date. September 9th!!!! I'm so excited!!

So excited to finally have my date after almost 6 months of waiting for one!! September 9th will be here before I know it. I have been planing already I have a long to do list before the 9th. Appointments for myself, prepping with my kiddies, getting work stuff cleared away, prepping meals for the family during my down time. But I'm happy to do it all. I am so exicited and blessed to have this opportunity to change my life!! Good luck to everyone

I am September 9th also

you are off to a great start, the weight will drop!

Just keep trying if this is what you really want to do. I was told I would have to wait almost a year after approval from my insurance company for an date!! I got fed up and I just got my date...(after 6 months of waiting) they were giving me the run around!

I'm not sure if he is over weight too, but if he is maybe encourage him to make a good choice to follow in your footsteps to better health. Maybe that will help with his fears. But on another note, you have to lay some ground rules, or he will continue to bring you down. If your are the independant women that you state, you should have no problem doing this. Ignoring his comments will only get you so far trust me, been there done that. In my current relationship, he was not very supporting of my choice for the sleeve, but what I said was I doing this with or without your support. I want to be around for my children and him, but if this chance is too much for you then there is the door, because I am gonna make it with or without you! I really meant what I said, and now I have his support. I also told him what I expect from him once I am post op. You need to have your head your head in the game of losing, and you can't completely do this with someone close to your heart steeping on you out the gate! Good Luck to you and hope everything works out for the best!!

I have not had my sleeve done, but I see everyone say each day it will get a little bit better!! But also drink your water that may help you feel a little better also!

Good Luck! The classes will go by quickly. You can do it!

I wonder if your doctors off wrote something up wrong. I would start with them to see what they submitted. Good Luck

Good luck for you and your friend! I am happy for you both, you will have each other to lean on and support.
