rebelchelz 52 Posted October 4, 2016 Finally!! Just heard from insurance co. that it is approved!! This is 3rd surgeon so it has been a process. Dr. office just called & we have scheduled pre-surgery apt for 10/17 & probably scheduling surgery for 11/8 or 11/9. Will know for sure after pre-surgery apt. I've been through the run around w/ 2nd surgeon. So glad I found this new surgeon & they seem to have everything organized and running their office like it should be. I'm so excited!!

Pescador 1,374 Posted October 4, 2016 I was sleeved three years ago, Nov. 18. I loved it being cold, and sipping Soups, broth. I will never forget our first meal, homemade chili we sipped on Christmas Day. By the time you have things under control it will be Spring, and there will be a New You!

Pescador 1,374 Posted October 4, 2016 You will be so happy you won't care about the food. The smells might get you but a Protein Shake will satisfy you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
