luvhermitcrabs 46 Posted August 14, 2015 Hi! I'm in Jackson. I'm still looking at options and figuring out what I want to do. I've satisfied the supervised weight loss program requirement for insurance, so I still have some requirements to do along with meetings for diet, psych and exercise. I'm going through Sparrow Hospital in Lansing. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TMG1980TMG 136 Posted August 17, 2015 Hi! My name is Tracy. I just moved to Livonia from Whitmore Lake (I know Brighton very well!) I have my final weigh in on 8/19 then my surgeon can submit to insurance for approval! It feels like forever somedays and so fast others. My surgeon is Dr. Weiner at Huron Valley- Siani in Commerce Mi. I found Dr. Weiner through YouTube and was so excited to see he was close enough for me to make an appointment. He is wonderful. How far along through the process are you? Which surgeon/Hospital? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You look familiar in your profile pic but it is so small I can't be sure. Did you have your pre-op meeting last week Tuesday at 4? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

axlr8n 161 Posted August 19, 2015 Hi everyone. I just had my bypass at St. Marys in Saginaw. Just got home about an hour ago, and I'm glad to be in my own chair watching some Tivo and sipping some Water and New Whey. It's good to see so many from Michigan on the boards.
