Hey Everyone!!

Im new here to verticalsleeve.com, but not to the whole WLS world. I am in the process of being sleeved---> being that im hopeful all things will work out, I hope to be sleeved before October lol...

I have completed pretty much all my requirements and I am currently working on losing the rest of my required 5%, I meet with Dr. Singh, of Albany Med for my surgery consult August 18th, Im crossing my fingers that I will get a date for surgery at this time...

Im looking for new friends who have undergone or are in the process of this life changing event! dont be a stranger, I need all the advice and pointers I can get!!! lol :)

Welcome to the forum, and you are totally not alone with being a fall sleever. I am hopefully getting everything submitted to insurance on August 4th, and I want September 2nd for my date. This forum is one of the best places to commiserate, vent, and find information on what will be happening before and after surgery, so do not be afraid to ask questions. Take care and good luck on your journey!

      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.
