Hi all! My surgery is on May 24th. I'd love to be a part of the Calendar of Fame and be a part of this nice group of people who obviously care and support one another!:eek: :mad: :D:) :) :)

Deb,

You have been on the calendar since early last week!

Okay guys...after all this hub-bub, I finally talked to CIGNA today. They basically said if I couldn't fulfill the requirements it was a waste of time to submit any paperwork for consideration, so I am officially denied and I will be a self-pay. This means I can go ahead with the 05-23 date!!! WHEW!!! All RIGHT!!!! 8 days and counting!

AHA! Scroll down to the bottom of the spreadsheet and click 'edit'.. and viola! You should be able to add your stats..... only if you wanna. :-)

It's still not working for me! When the spreadsheet comes up for me, it is in VIEW ONLY mode. There is no place to click 'edit.'

I don't know...arrrgh.. Maybe you need to have a google account to use it???? I really thought it was going to be much simpler. Sorry 'bout that.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      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.
