Hi ya'll I would love to share my journey and hear yours if your from Texas. Im having my sleeve done June 20th.

Hello, Can ya'll give me suggestions on what I should have prepared at home after surgery?

oh wow we r neighbors I'm near sadler! wow where at in mexico? I've always been nervous about going their for surgery. Im sure you did your research, please let me know how it goes.

My number 1 is I can't keep up with my kids 2. back and knee pain 3.cant wear cute clothes 4.i always wanted that little space on both sides,you know the space between butt and arm rest of airplane seat. 5.want my husband to

What is the RNY? Im having the Minisleeve which is kinda newish only Dr McCarty does it. Are you nervous yet about the surgery?

Oh thats awesome! it will be here soon are you in DFW area?

oh great!

Oh wow mine is on june 20th. I guess it smart to have remade protein shakes? idk sugar free jello? Netflix and pillows???

i used them and it was super easy. My dr office recommended them. And i got approved for surgery. It was a $40 co-pay.

Hi, Im June 20th! And also a Texan. Im in DFW area. Are you nervous???

I have BCBS PPO Texas and it took 4 days after i did my Sleep Study,nutrition (over phone), Psy-eval (over phone). It was quick. I do have BMI 36 and Sleep Apnea.

it is absurd! i think your right too about Doc reporting me, he won't. Thats a good idea ill bring my pump with me and just pump before surgery and i should be fine. Im not going to cut him off cold turkey and have a angry baby because BCBS says so. Its weird these "rules" insurance companies make up, they have too many lawyers calling the shots. Ill just be happy when surgery is done, I haven't did anything for me in ages and its my time. Ill let you know what happens. I should be having surgery on may 30th just gotta confirm sitter and a few things but its a "Go"!

Has anyone experienced this? I weaned my son but still lactating a little.should i not say anything ? Someone mentioned if your lactatint bcbs wont pay for surgery

Idk either. The website www.obesitycoverage.com says bcbs texas wont cover if pregnant or lactating...idk could be bad info

What if i my boobs leak during surgery!?

Hi! Ok great. I guess ill tell the dr whats going on. Its hard weaning! My sob eats mainly solids now but still wants boob at night....

Hello going through first stage of getting mini sleeve .it feels really like a new procedure. Has anyone had Mini Sleeve procedure?

Im thinking about it too.indid see he had license taken away because of alcohol issue.but thats a long time ago and he did rehab etc. I just want to know if he is goid at mini sleeve procedure. ..seems like a newer procedure...lets us all know what happens good luck!!

Open youtube video explains better

Basically he goes through belly button and cuts, staples, and takes out pieces of stomach through belly button. Less invasive and out pait surgery. Less scars.
