December 2013 Sleevers Come In!
amduc replied to AtlantaRed's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hi everyone! I'm Michele from Pennsylvania. My husband and I are both having surgery Friday December 13 ( thank heaven I'm not superstitious ) insurance gods permitting. We've done our entire 6 month program together so it's been pretty awesome. I tease the med people that we're their BOGO. He has a lot of med problems that we're hoping will be corrected by surgery. Hes the former great condition athletic type that gained a lot when he stopped playing sports. I'm the short- always- been heavy girl who would strictly diet, get easily discouraged by minimal loss, eat, regain etc etc. Anyway- -we have ultrasound and endoscopy to go. 2 week lc diet to start black Friday and that'll be it! Nice meeting you all and best wishes! Stay strong! -

I've been following this site for 5 months as my husband and I began considering weight loss surgery options. Largely because of info gleaned on this site and the amount of support you give, we are now finishing up our 6 month ins requirement and today met with our surgeon. Insurance gods permitting we are both being sleeved Dec 15. Doing this as a team has so far been amazing. The wealth of knowledge here is impressive. Thank you for sharing your experiences. It's appreciated

My 6 months (thru bcbs) have to be completed consecutively but the actual dates in the month don't matter. Like everything else, seems requirements are across the board :/
