I have been seeing Dr Kemmerling and am hoping to be sleeved in October. Would love to chat with you anytime. I have a friend who was sleeved by Dr Kemmerling 2 years ago and she is doing great!

I'm familiar with him. My sister in law had her lap band by him. I met him as well.

I never had heard of this option until until I met with my docs. Very glad I chose it.

Good luck to you on your journey. Today I find out hopefully anyway- My date :)

Hi!

I am fairly new to this forum and live in Janesville, WI. I am getting sleeed on Oct. 30th by Dr. Garcia in Tijuana, MX. I'm super excited and nervous at the same time!

I would love to keep in contact with you all and share stories and tips. This is such a big decision and change in our lives that having people who understand what we are going through is such a blessing as I know I will definitely need advice and support. :)

Good luck to everyone out there and I can't wait to start this journey to a NEW ME!! :) It's been way too long hiding behind my insecurities. I am ready to work hard and play hard and achieve my new goals.

Good luck everyone!

Hi, I will be getting sleeved by Dr. Selwyn in Stevens Point. I just love him! He takes a philosophical approach and is very easy to talk to. Good luck to everyone on here! :)

I heard Dr. Selwyn is a great doctor. I chose to go with aspirus because my insurance required a center of excellence. I had my gallbladder out at St. Michaels and my experience there was awesome. Good Luck!

      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.
