I found out on August 28th and they first offered me surgery on Sept. 24th. But I had prior commitments so I had it October 8th.

I was sleeved 5 weeks ago with Dr. Pham. Absolutely love him and complete trust that he is the best. Never, ever go to Synergy! Cavaretta is terrible. I had BCBS and they covered my sleeve. After everything was finally submitted from the doctors I was approved in 48 hours.

Can it really be possible to be at a stall already since 1.5 weeks post-op? Very frustrating already. I was sleeved October 8th and have not lost anything since Sunday and today is Thursday. I am still on my full liquid diet, get all my protein in and liquids and do take my daily walk. I'm not cleared to do any harder exercises yet being just 2 weeks. Need to hear others have had this and what I can do different? Everyday I think "tomorrow the scale will change". :-(

I'm hoping my stall broke...finally the scale changed and lost 3 more pounds after 10 days! That's 16 pounds since surgery 3 weeks today. Keep it moving!!!

Thank you so very much for all your words of advice and encouragement. I will try to be patient and thank full for my sleeve because I totally would of just gone back to my old ways after 4 days of no change. My sleeve will keep me strong! I will just put the scale away. Thanks again everyone!

Krimrod...please add me. Lisarn@rochester.rr.com I was sleeved on October8,2014. Thank you

Very excited! Surgery date is October 8th ????

Hi, just found out today that after months of doing everything required and soooo scared about my insurance covering my VSG I got the approval that I will be covered! So excited but very scared at the same time. Still don't have a definite surgery date but would so appreciate connecting with someone from Buffalo, NY going through the same thing. TY
