Hey everyone I made it through surgery. The 1st two days were rough, but I’m feeling much better now. I was supposed to go home yesterday but because I haven’t been drinking enough fluids I was made to stay another day. I’m working harder today to get enough liquids in.

Heck all birth control has risks, NuvaRing had lawsuits as well as the Ortho Evra skin patch and the birth control skin implant. Then folks complain about the depo shot making them fat, or forgetting to take their pills. I hope you are able to find something that works for you. The only way you are going to find what works for you is by picking one and trying it out. They all have their lawsuits and adverse reactions at the end of the day. I had Implanon for a year and only took it out because it made my period come more often than it was supposed to and HEAVIER. I have the Mirena now and haven’t had anything major happen other than a little discomfort the 1st week of insertion and light, irregular periods.

Mines took 1 day, I went online and checked my Insurance ID account and saw the approval letter the next day, before they mailed it.

Happy and sad right now, they canceled my face to face surgery twin’s op because of a mix up with her meds and her selected surgery. So the docs office manager just called and told me they moved my time to her spot, so I will be reporting at 8am tomorrow for 10 am surgery instead of 12:30pm for 3pm. I’m so sad for her right now.

Finally got a surgery date! YAY! Now I want to start a FB group for Aug/Sep/Oct sleevers; thoughts?

There’s 3 August 2018 FB groups I’ve found so far, but I didn’t look for any September or October groups. -
Overheard Staff Joking About My Body

Yes I deleted my reply as I realized I miss understood that part of your reply, as Jan was trying to point out to me. I apologize and am removing myself from the conversation. Have a nice day. -

You’re good, I’m good. I hope OP will get justice against these unprofessionals. If they’re doing it to her, they will do it to others. No one should work in the medical field if they can’t display good human decency. -

I think you should report them, I liked that you didn’t flip out on them. You will probably get better results in your report because you took the high road. My ass would’ve flipped out, cursed them out and then went and sliced their tires in the parking lot, but that’s just me. -

I never disputed the fact that any random can respond, I stated I wouldn’t be arguing with said random, when I was replying to the OP. Again have a great day, sweetie. 💁🏾♀️ -

Lol, I guess you didn’t read my whole comment where I agreed that she was mistreated and that their behavior was childish and insensitive, but it’s ok that you chose to focus on only part on my reply, I’m damn sure not here to argue with some random, about something I was saying directly to the OP. You have a nice day now dear. 😆 -

Hey sleeve buddy! There’s a couple of us with the same day as you. Welcome!

I know it’s early, but I figured I’d make a spot in this big Bariatric world for those of us who are getting surgery done in November.

GamePlan18 replied to Ylime's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
We’re surgery twins! I’m sad I won’t get to do a food funeral, funds are too tight right now for me to be able to go out to eat. -
Awesome, congrats on getting to the beginning of your new way of life! I’m so excited for us!

GamePlan18 replied to susunorm's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hi everyone, I just got scheduled today, to have surgery on August 29th! I’m excited and nervous. Only have 1 day of liquid diet on the 28th. On the 25th I’ll have to not have anything heavy, like red meat and so on. -
Sorry I’m late, just got my surgery date scheduled today. I’ll be getting surgery on August 29th. I’m nervous and excited!!!
-
So I have good and bad news, bad news is I won’t be able to stay in the group with you guys and gals anymore. Good news, because my date was scheduled for August 29th, Doc moved my date up because I reached my pre-surgery weight loss goal. Y’all enjoy the group!

@Frustr8 That’s Great, I look forward to hearing from them.
-
Sorry about not being able to get your surgery done until August, but it’s great to see another November member, welcome!

I know it’s early, but I figured I’d make a spot in this big Bariatric world for those of us who are getting surgery done in November. We can keep each other motivated and sane especially around the holiday of Thanksgiving.
