Evymetalmommy 0 Posted April 11, 2012 Hey I'm Jennifer. I'm a 30 year old that is getting sleeved next week. I live just outside of Baton Rouge. I actually went through the process to get RNY done 8 years ago and before I could have it done my insurance changed and really messed me up. I just gave up the idea of surgery completely. 8 years and 2 more kids later my grandmother offered to pay for me to have weight loss surgery. This was last month. We went to a consultation with Dr Bellanger in Baton Rouge last week. I will be sleeve April 19th. I'm scared to death but I am assuming that is normal. So that is my story and hopefully I can get to know a few of you because I don't have a big support system of people going through what I am. My fiancee is extremely supportive but I know he just won't understand some things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stilden78 1 Posted April 24, 2012 Hey Jennifer, I live in Baton Rouge myself. I got sleeved at OLOL on March 12th. It is a scary process but it is all worth it. My surgeons were great and I have nothing but an awesome recovery. Since my initial consultation in December, I have lost 100 lbs and feel great. Keep going and just remember, through all the pain and everything....we are getting healthy for our kids. Good Luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
