I am getting surgery on the 24th of August. I have help for like 2 weeks but it's going to be extremely hard not to hold him. Any mothers out there have come across this problem. What do I do I feel like it's impossible not to lift him at all. I need advice because about two weeks after I have no one to help me it's not going to work me not lifting him[emoji22]

You are truly an inspiration to me I am starting off wearing a size 24/26 and my surgery is the 24th of August. I hope to drop that weight and look good like you lol. How long did it take? I don't want skin removal surgery so any advice on that? You look great you must feel so proud[emoji16] -

You look great!!!! -
I am so nervous to go under anesthesia during surgery. Can anyone tell me their experience the day of surgery. I am freaking out about the worst possible things. Like what if I feel what going on or when are they putting me to sleep in the operating room will I see everything they will use??? I am just freaking out. If anyone can tell me how they were put out and how long did the procedure take? How was it like for you. I have a few weeks left and I am going nuts and nauseous thinking about it[emoji31]

Do it or don't do it!
graziellabs replied to Abbie719's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You have to do what's best for yourself. What are some reasons people tell you not to do it? I had some people tell me also don't do it but they have never had weight issues so they would not understand. -
Surgery stories???
graziellabs replied to graziellabs's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thank you I expect some pain but some stories I hear scare the crap out of me. I'm glad your doing well and already going back to work. Is all the medicine they give you pain Meds all chewable. Doesn't it taste gross? -
I am going to my final doctor in this pre-surgery process tomorrow afternoon. What can I expect when I go to visit him. I have no heart disease in my family or ever had an issue. (Knock on wood)!!!! You think they will suggest a nuclear stress test or should I be ok to just do an ekg and maybe a normal stress test? I am nervous I am so close to ending these doctors being that tomorrow is the last of my process. I just want everything to work out so I can have this surgery!!!

Does anyone who has Cigna PPO ever had to dish out money pre surgery anything out of pocket or did you get a bill after surgery? If you dished anything out at all.

Any August 2017 Sleevers?
graziellabs replied to Jessalene's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That is great for everyone who has their surgery scheduled!!!! [emoji3][emoji3][emoji3]I want my surgery the second week of August but I don't have a date yet because my heart doctor has to be scheduled within a month of the surgery. How come you guys have your date so early? Does your doctor require something different. -
Insurance question
graziellabs replied to graziellabs's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Wow just a few days??? That is great!!! I go to the heart doctor next week and that's it then it's just got to be sent to insurance for approval. I had the endoscopy I didn't pay anything hopefully it remains that way. Good luck to you!!!!!
