Today has been a wonderful day. I got approval from BCBS of Illinois and I got my surgery date from my doctor's office. My surgery is scheduled for July 25th. I am soooooo excited and am looking forward to being on the loser's bench.:)

CoNgRaTs!!!!! Try to take the time between now and then to relax. I know me and a few friends that had the surgery all worried ourselves to death and stressed over the what ifs.

Do you have a pre-op diet to do?

Thanks Ms Lady in NC. I have to do a two week liquid diet that I start on July 11th. Surprisingly, I am pretty calm right now but am sure I will get anxious as my surgery date gets closer.

Wooohhoooo congratulations! It was a long road but you made it. You will be fine with the pre op diet too, I just know it. But take Regina's advise and relax anyway.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
