Sleeve planned for July here. Just finished my third appt. Doc said now it is a waiting game to get the 6 month program requirements done for both of my insurance. Did it all... Just gonna meet each month to check up and that is it.

you click on the person's name and go down to where it says add as a friend......sometimes it doesn't let you. I tried to add the other posters on this thread and it didn't let me.

So excited to have someone to go through this with!

As long as insurance cooperates, I'm hoping for early July. I'll have all of my requirements met by then. The nurse is doing everything she can to help me as I am a teacher and have some weeks off this summer to recover while my kids will be at the babysitter and camp. Very exciting!

Hi I'm new to this site, I'm scheduled for August due to my insurance and a vacation that has been paid for in early August. I'm starting the 3month program that Aetna requires and very excited! This site seems to be very informative and helpful.

I apologize. I am new to this site/app and I did not get a notification of replies.

I am so excited to have others on the same time like as I. I just completed my hos. classes, exercise info class, pysc. eval. and medical appt. My bariactric doc is now just stating we are waiting the clock out. Sigh.... I am ready. I appreciate the 6 mo. thing. But I have two insurances and my primary is a 4 mo. plan, whereas my secondary insurance is a 6 mo. So in order to have pretty much nothing out of pocket, I am in it for a few more months.

Got the Protein Drink thing down, Jello, Water, cottage cheese, and cut the soda and coffee out. I am not a patient person. I really want to get this boat moving. I am ready to move again. I am always in pain and tired. I daydream of enjoying the outdoors again. I need this tool.

ok, done ranting. lol.

      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.

      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.
