ARE THERE ANY OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2015 SLEEVERS OUT THERE?



Recommended Posts

I was just scheduled today for 10/5....2 weeks! I was told once I was approved by insurance it would be 3-4 weeks so I was mentally planning for later in October. Little freaked out now!

Hi All - I'm scheduled for a band to sleeve revision on October 19th with Dr. Scarborough in Houston.

I've created a Facebook page for October Sleevers. Please send me your email address if you'd like to join. The settings are secret, but I named it October 2015 Sleevers.

Best of luck to everyone!!!

Forgive my Facebook ignorance, but is the group private? Will it show up in my profile as a group I am in?

November 2, gastric sleeve. with Dr. Ariel Ortiz. Met with Dr. Ortiz, Dr. Martinez, and nutritionist when visiting San Diego last week. Also toured clinic and spoke with several people waiting for surgery the next day. My husband and I were satisfied that this is a good choice. Traveling from Phoenix, AZ. Hubby is going but would be happy to meet some people online that I could connect with during surgery week!

Hi RDub - It's coded as secret, so it's not supposed to show anywhere. I was worried about that too. You may want to read up on the Secret groups though. The name is October 2015 Sleevers if you want to try to search it

Hi everyone. I am a member of Sleevers over 50 on fb. It is a closed group as well and there haven't been any issues. Just check your privacy settings to be sure. I am nervously looking forward to my October 13th date here in Chicago.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
