luzR 17 Posted September 16, 2016 I'm supposed to go Sept 19! Sent from my SM-G935V using the BariatricPal App 9/19 is my date as well Sent from my LGMS631 using the BariatricPal App Hi all. I am 9/19/16. Anxious and ready. I am 48 year old and have battled pcos since my mid 20's. Sw 276 Cw 269 (and not budging) Goal. To eliminate all diabetes meds and improve my health. And of course want to lose some weight along the way. My husband is getting sleeved too. He hasn't got his date yet but he is hoping for November. Still waiting for the final approval from Cigna. But they set my date. Cigna not easy even with the uncontrolled diabetes. High blood pressure. Severe sleep apnea and pcos. First letter of denial because not medically necessity? Crazy! I KNOW it will get approved. Glad to see some September sleepers out there. Live in and love this site. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App My date is 9/19 Sent from my LGMS631 using the BariatricPal App would love to have a group of just us to follow in this journey. Convos get lost in the shuffle of these threads. Maybe we can start a private group on Facebook and add one another to it???? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App A group has been started. It's called sept going down. Look under groups. Lots of ideas and shared stories.

laurieep 11 Posted September 16, 2016 Just got home yesterday from Wednesday surgery; how are you all doing? I think the gas pain was the worst of it! Not much pain today, just a little uncomfortable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Monet08 63 Posted September 16, 2016 I had surgery Wednesday too and it's off and on with pain. The hernia repair I had is really taking toll on me Sent from my iPhone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dawnislas 74 Posted September 16, 2016 I had my surgery Tuesday and came home Wednesday night. I feel good except pain on left side from the larger incision. My gas pain isn't bad but I still have some. I am doing fairly well on my clear liquid diet and start my Vitamins and full liquid and Protein supplements tomorrow. This is truly not as bad as I had thought. Going to try back to work Monday. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lmalla 7 Posted September 16, 2016 I just got sleeved monday! Everything went well, headed home tuesday. Im on clear dilluted liquid diet, since yesterday ive been more anxious. Last night i dreamed of a hamburger! I need to get my fat me out of my head. The worst part is sleeping comfortably, my large incision it the one giving me more trouble. Tomorrow I had my first round of Multivitamins and it wasn't fun. I bought ones that are called bari melts! My nausea was so bad i had to go to sleep. Hope tomorrow is better.

Jen-2+1 131 Posted September 17, 2016 I saw the group but it says it is for RNY. Is that the only group? Is there a private group for vsg? I hate when my groups show up to other people snooping around my fb. Haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
