    Gastric Sleeve

    Hello aceduece! Im so happy for you! I really want to have the vertical sleeve done, but Im several months out, due to being a self payer.. Hopefully sometime this fall/winter 2009. I researched the lap band, and was set until recently hearing about the sleeve. Im sold! this is the procedure of my choice! I appreciate all info you can post. Im really not scared or have to many concerns, because Im so tired of the way I have been living, well tired of the way, I havent really been living. This gives me hope, to begin to live, and enjoy life, instead of hiding. Im ready. Im willing. And Im excited! I hope you will update us on your progress. Thank you so much for sharing your journey, you are a winner!!!!

    Other Options?

    Hello there, I am in the same boat! What I have found out is that alot of people are pulling equity out of there home (2nd mortgage if you will) for this procedure. And thats assuming you are a home owner. They said the interest rate is better than other credit options. Other than that, it looks like saving.. Which could take a lifetime also..yikes!
  6. Hello there, I am planning to self pay as well. Could you share approx amount/costs for the prodecure? Is there a reason your insurance didnt cover? THanks!

  7. Wow u look fabulous! Im so inspired! Thanks for posting ur pics for all of us considering the surgery!:)
