daf 2 Posted December 10, 2013 Hi everyone. I'm being revised from a band to sleeve Jan 16 in NJ. I go to Drs 12/18 for preop work. I onlty told a few people about the band and only 2 about the sleeve. I lost a grand total of 35 lbs with the band and gained all but 10 back. Can't wait to get started, what a way to begin the year!! 1 HipsAndLipstick reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mommyluv6 2 Posted December 11, 2013 I got my date! January 14th with my pre-op December 20th. Holy cow! My only concern is that I have gained weight since i last saw him. I pray the doctor doesn't reschedule me! I know it's a longshot, but are there any other nursing mommies? I am still nursing my 17 month old and am hoping to continue to do so after surgery. 1 HipsAndLipstick reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ms.marylou 5 Posted December 12, 2013 Well fingers crossed. (Im still waiting on insurance which kicks in, in January) that my date will be the 13th of jan. I have pretty much everything done just need my psych and classes besides the ekg scope and such. I already have had the class before and have seen a psych before too. But that was last year. Im hoping and praying that this year will be the winner. Just wish my friend could have it done the same day :-( 1 HipsAndLipstick reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
