Hello my name is Stacy, I am 27 years old and I have decided to be sleeved about 2 months ago. I have gone to a couple of appointments so far, and things are moving right along. I am nervous about the whole process but I cannot back out, I know I will be better off in the long run. I don't have a surgery date yet, but testing is coming up soon. When I get my date I will share.

Good luck, Stacy! I just had my first appointment with my surgeon and have already scheduled appointments for the psychological evaluation and the NUT. I am excited, but not nervous.

Hi. New here too! I have my first appointment next week. My psy eval will be done on the 5 of November. sleep test on Friday night. I'm down 9 lbs... 5%... Is what my surgeon requires... So I have 6 more to go... I would like to have it done in November because due to other obligations it works out better that way. But I may have to have it before the end of the year because if insurance change. We will see what changes with our plan thanks to Obama care. Fingers crossed that the deductible stays the same but I doubt it. Good luck!!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
