Please keep me posted! Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App Oh I will definitely be on here keeping everyone up to date- I also have a blog so feel free to check in and when I started the process I did the math on how long it would take me to get everything done and DECIDED I without a doubt WILL get my surgery in September and even tho the nurse doubted my ability make it happen- I did it! So dont ever give up it will be hard but it is most definitely worth it!!! There is a light at the end of the tunnel! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope you've been recovering well! Wow, we're neighbors practically! I have been recovering pretty well, got my staples and stuff out yesterday and actually ended up having my gastric bypass on the 14th!

I have my last NUT appointment at UH next Wednesday then everything will be submitted to insurance. I hope to schedule surgery for the first week of November. Any general feedback about your experience with UH? Dr. Khaitan is my surgeon. I'm starting to get excited and nervous! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
