SnOwCrAsHeD 56 Posted March 8, 2015 (edited) Hi all! This is my first post and I created my profile the other day. I plan to get the sleeve in 2015 and am trying to learn as much as possible pre and post op, especially on what do do for food after the surgery! I am taking lost of notes and reading hundreds of posts. I guess I'm on the lower BMI side so my Dr. doesn't want me to lose to much weight before the surgery, but I'm getting so excited and making "mental" changes to my view of food and what life will be like after the surgery. I have United Heath Care and am in the process of getting approved for the procedure which I hear can take up to 30 days. Completed: • Psychological evaluation • Registered Dietitian evaluation • Six months medical-supervised weight loss • BMI 35 with co-morbitity Pending: • United Heath Care authorization • Surgery date In Progress: • Researching meal and Protein replacement products Thanks for having me!
