Okay so after 10 and a half months I finally have my surgery date, and it's April 25th. I've been waiting 10.5 months and I feel like these next three weeks are taking forever! It's like time went flying by and now it's hit a brick wall and I could have sworn the clock was turning back.

What did you all do to kill the time?

My insurance wouldn't pay but 4k of mine. I took out my student loans, something I'd never done before, and called the surgeon. It all took less than 2 months from curiosity to surgery. I almost wished I had more time to think about things...but the outcome would have been the same and this kept me from bailing out.

      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.
