December Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Hello All,

New to this forum. Just received my insurance approval and my sleeve surgery is scheduled for 12/16/15. Nervous and excited and would love support on this journey and hope I can offer you all support too!

I am in the suburbs of Chicago. I was interested to read that many of you are not planning on telling people about your surgery. I've been thinking about how to handle this, I'm a very open person about most things but for some reason feel really strange telling people that I'm not close to about my surgery. All my family will know and my close friends but it's co-workers and casusal friends that I don't know how to handle. Would love to hear thoughts on this subject.

I look forward to going through this journey together.

Kindly,

Christine

Mine was done 12/15. So far, so good but it's a rough go of it when no one else around you has had it done.

Hi I am new to this site too. My surgery is scheduled for Jan 14th. I was wondering how to tell people too. I am a very private person. My family and a few close friends know. That's all. I don't know what to tell people when I start losing weight. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Perhaps I am late to the party, but I had surgery on Dec. 16th.

I had my sleeve on Dec 21st in Cola, SC. I really seem to be struggling with depression over food and not being able to eat like I used too. I feel so helpless. I feel like I've made a mistake with this surgery. Not sure what to do, anyone else experiencing similar issues? Thanks in Advance
