I had my first visit yesterday. I was expecting to maybe have surgery 6 months down the road. I was told yesterday that I could expect July or August. Mostly it will depend on when I can get in for the psych eval. I've thought about surgery for many years but my insurance would never cover it. My husband had been saving $ for us to go to Costa Rica. But his insurance now covers bariatric surgery and all of my previous diet attempts count towards the 6 month diet. So now I'm both nervous and excited.

I'm from Massachusetts, being sleeved at Tobey Hospital in Wareham, MA. At my last surgeon consult, I was told to expect approval in late June/early July, with an official surgery date sometime in July...it's really happening! I'm itching to get that date set in stone, it's so hard to be a patient patient.

So what is everyone doing to prepare? Are you neurotic like me and already thinking about what to take to the hospital? And did someone say there's a Facebook page for July sleevers? I'd love to be added to it!

[Sylviam1974 16]

Hi! I'm scheduled on July 1st with Dr Alvarez in Mexico. Good luck everyone!!

Sylvia you'll have to let us know how it goes since you're the first of the month! I'm July 16th in Dallas. I can't wait I'm sooo ready to have this done!!!! ~Madeline

[jenna1 4]

I'm in Mexico too! With Dr. Garcia; who is Dr. Q? I'll be at florence Oasis and then Marriott Tijuana. Will you be in Tijuana? Exciting to be in a foreign country with people that we kinda know!

Dr Q is Dr. Quinones, its easier to say Dr Q! I will not be at the marriott =/ i stay 2 days at a hospital and then go to the Real del Rio Hotel in Tijuana. Maybe its close by??

[Sylviam1974 16]

I will definitely keep you posted. Looking forward to learning from each other

Hi everybody, screaming all the way from Louisiana to let all now just found out this morning that I got approved by UHC and my surgeons office called with a surgery date of July 2nd. So excited yet a little nervous because it's major surgery but I've wanted this for a while and I can't wait.
