OK so my journey started last July. I went to the same doctors office my best friend went to. Come to find out that United Health care will only let you goto a center of excellence. Orlando Health was the place for that. I got depressed and didn't do anything about it until January. On January 28th I had my first visit for my weigh in. I am so excited to report that I have my last weigh in on June 29th I got my insurance approve four days later and Surgery is scheduled for August 10th 27 days from now. I am nervous and scared all at the same time. I know physically I will be fine I am most scared about the mental part of it.

I would love to get a group of people together and create a Facebook page that are August sleeve patients. My best friend did that with her january 2012 sleeve patients. They get together once a learn just to keep up with each other. I think this will help us all.

Hi Rebekah

I'm from Texas, but we have the same name so your thread caught my attention. I even go by Bekah to close friends. :)

I was sleeved on May 18th and things have been going pretty well for me so far (knock on wood). I had moments where I thought "what the hell am I doing" so I can relate. Just remember that this is something you can do if you set your mind to it. As I am sure you have heard, it isn't always easy, but it is rewarding.
