Yep, few on May 1st & few on May 10th too, that is great!

Start my 2 week pre-op diet tomorrow. Making me a bit nervous, only because this is making it so real!

But excited too!

Phatdivabbw- you're right around the corner from me! (Hamilton border). Saw my dr and NUT today, may be able to get may 16 instead!!! Crossing fingers, but I doubt my insurance will get back that fast ):

RawrrAshlee who is your dr? You are right around the corner from me. I am scheduled for the 30th.

Hi everyone!

So, I started this thread back in February and today I found out that my insurance approved my surgery. Good news!

But, I don't have a date yet. I totally know what some of you mean when you say that you feel that your life is on hold. I've been waiting for 2-3 weeks (thinking that the doc's office had already submitted my paperwork, but it must have gotten held up somewhere...maybe due to Easter?).

Hoping to still get a date in May...I imagine that I'll find out next week? Hoping to join all of you May Sleevers!!

:)

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      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.
