My 19th birthday is July 2nd. Surgery is July 8th. This liquid diet is harder then I thought especially when I go out with the family.. I just keep telling myself next summer will be better.

I'm the same way, I started mine today. In my pre-op class they told us to expect it, because your body is adjusting. In a few days it'll all be easier and surgery will be here before you know it. Keep your head up.

10 days til surgery, on my liquid diet now 4 days til my 19th birthday, Wont be able to do much celebrating... WORTH IT!

I'm getting sleeved July 8th!

Went to meet my surgeon today. I have to be at hospital 5:30 a.m. July 8!! I'm so so excited. 6 days after my 19th birthday.

So excited!!

So have I. I'm ready for it yo be gone!!

Awesome! We all should keep in touch with our progress!

I know! Hoping if I work hard enough ill be able to wear a 2 PC and feel comfortable

Definitely message me any time!(:

That's great! Congratulations. bet your excited as me lol

I know! You cannot find one single picture of me where I was not overweight for my age. I feel like after its all done and the weight off. I'm just gonna be a whole new person who enjoys life more cause now with having smaller friends and of I go do what they do there's always a fear I can't. Like roller coasters swimming walking around the mall shopping. And by next summer going out in a swim suit with them wont be so intimidating

Im gettin sleeved July 8th

Right now it's all overwhelming. With all the what coulds. And the what you have to do's. But I can't wait. I wanna get this done while I'm young and it'll all be a bit easier. I've struggled with weight my whole life. Id rather do this now and just get it done so I can live my life happy and healthy. Its gonna be a rough few week.

Just a few more days til the 3 hour drive to my pre-op appointment. what should I be expecting when o get there?

I was approved thru cigna Thursday and received my letter syaing I was approved today. I was looking on there and the authorization effect day, is that like the day they plan to take you in for surgery cause its exactly 3 weeks from my pre-op. The sheet they sent me says. AUTHORIZATION DATES 6/28/2013- 6/29/2013 TOTAL DAYS APPROVED:1 and something about a bed type. Ans says if I need further services past my one approved day that they will have to go thru insurance and make sure it'll be covered. Soo what id this authorized day?

Thanks!

Thanks!

Its been a difficult 6 months but I never gave up, and don't plan on it! I did my last weigh in yesterday and all my stuff was sent off today! In 6 months I lost 33 pound and it definitely wasn't easy. And the surgery process and the life style change is gonna be hard, but so worth it in the end.. I'm 18 years old and ready to change my life forever, just hope my insurance approves me, and helps me keep going!

I have cigna

I'm so excited.

Thanks for all the prays support and advice! Its definitely being returned!! Got a call today I've been approved!! Pre open June 6th!!(:
