olliesoda 174 Posted April 11, 2017 It's been 8 months since I decided to have the sleeve done and 7 months since surgery. It's the the best thing I could ever have done. I have my life back! I've added my B4 and images taken yesterday. If your on the journey or feel you want to get on it.... I can't begin to tell you how it will change your life IF you embrace it! 15 char3672, Keeda85, pwrtp and 12 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LoriNumbers 2 Posted April 12, 2017 Sorry I'm all new to this. I thought it took about five months from decision to surgery date because of all the appointments with a psychiatrist, nutritionist, etc. You look great, btw! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
olliesoda 174 Posted April 12, 2017 Sorry I'm all new to this. I thought it took about five months from decision to surgery date because of all the appointments with a psychiatrist, nutritionist, etc. You look great, btw!Hi LoriI live in the UK, following some direct talking from my Dr. I decided to self pay and I made my decision to have the sleeve on 10 August following meeting the surgeon, had a two week holiday then went on my pre-op diet and into theatre 13 September. I had and still have full support from my surgical team. Ollie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LoriNumbers 2 Posted April 12, 2017 As you can imagine it won't be as easy in the good old USA. I do have a couple of co-morbidities. I need my knees replaced because of arthritis and the ortho suggested the weight loss surgery. I'm hoping insurance will pay for the knees and the weight loss sx.
