ShanBabyG 6 Posted October 7, 2013 Soooo I am calling tomorrow to see if I am approved (which I am 99% sure I am) and hopefully schedule my surgery!! I am a teacher and am needing it done during Christmas break AMYWAYS, I'm just totally freaking excited and cannot wait to lose this weight and hopefully feel way less pain in my every day life. 4 kan75251, Bremartus, onedaycloser and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kan75251 66 Posted October 30, 2013 I am in the same boat. I am trying to get everything in order to have surgery over break. If I can't then I will have to wait until summer. I will find out in the next week or so if I am a December sleeve or a June sleeve. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cherryhair 88 Posted October 30, 2013 I'm in that boat too- however if it doesn't pan out during the holiday break then I will get surgery as soon as possible- putting my life on hold and my needs last is what got me here in the first place. There are plenty of substitute teachers in our district. The students will be fine.:-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Journey2BNThin 62 Posted November 15, 2013 I will be going out a week before break & returning the Monday after my students return for the New Year. I work as a counselor at a school based youth services program within a high school. For me it's basically now or never, we operate a summer program transitioning 8th grades into 9th grade.
