Surgery on Monday
Seattle WLS Newbie replied to FAT TWO FABULOUS's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Good luck ladies! I feel your nerves, I'm now waiting for insurance approval. When I went into the hospital for my scope that was the first time I've even had an IV in my arm. -
Submitted to insurance last week and have been super anxious ever since. Still waiting on my approval but have my pre-op scheduled [emoji4]

Seattle WLS Newbie replied to chryss's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I was is the same boat. I've never really had reflux but my EGD revealed Barrett's as well. I was dead set on having the sleeve but after talking with my surgeon and doing more research I've decided to go with a bypass. -
Pre Op help
Seattle WLS Newbie replied to Seattle WLS Newbie's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks! I went to a WLS support group over the weekend and talked to a few folks about this as well. I'm feeling more comfortable with the change. Just a last min curve ball that threw me for a loop Hoping to meet with my surgeon again this week and submit for insurance approval. -
Possibly switching to bypass because of GERD
Seattle WLS Newbie replied to shy1's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Following this thread as I'm in a similar situation. I was set on sleeve as well and my Dr just diagnosed me with Barrett's syndrome and recommend that I consider RnY. Also looking to loose 100lbs. -

April sleevers!?
Seattle WLS Newbie replied to Simplyrosie's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm a fan of the premier protein shakes, taste great and easy for on the go. They are sold at Costco so it's easy to buy in bulk as well. -
