Congrats Chelbybebe!!

I am an April Sleever too. I go in on March 26 for my pre-op surgical consult, and at that appointment, we will set a surgery date of 2-3 weeks out. I am hoping for April 17th.

I am so excited to be here and get life moving on the right track!

I'm a first timer on here!!! My next appointment is march the 14 where I will start my liquid diet. I'm so nervous and excited and scared, hell I'm not sure how I feel! My surgery will be April 3rd. I'm 32 and weigh 187. I'm starting out with what is considered a "low BMI" but obesity is bad in my family and u have struggled for years. I'm so ready to be healthy and feel better physically and emotionally!

I finally found a sleeve sister!! I will be having my surgery on April 3rd as well! I weigh 240 and 5'6" and I am 39. I start my liquid diet on March 20.

I am scheduled for 4/11 also with Dr. Pecquex in Boston. I am starting to get very nervous that I am going to go thru all of this and its not going to work for me. Looking forward to seeing how all the April sleevers progress!!

I am having my surgery with Dr. Pecquex too!! We don't have an official date yet... But it will probably be middle to late April. Good luck with everything!

Hi April sleevers. I am to be sleeved on April 10th. I received my approval yesterday. No pre-op diet for me. I decided to cut alot of my comfort foods anyway. I am still in shock mode. My insurance required a 6 month medically supervised diet as of Jan 1 of this year I did 90 days and the surgeon sent everything in anyway to see if it would get approved since I started my diet in December, last year there was a requirement of 3 months. To my shock they approved.

I am a LPN presently and in school to become an RN. I am also single with 3 teenagers. I have never been a skinny woman ever in my life. I figured out my wait has been my wall to not get attention. So to have this wall to be dropped and become exposed is like WOW and my question to myself was AM I READY? My answer is, hecks yeah. Time to say good bye to the caterpillar and become a butterfly and I am so excited not only for me but my kids so they can experience me more active in their life. Not to mention my kids so I can be a inspiration to them. I thank God for this group and I wish you all well.
