Just the beginning

[BabyFat23 209]

Hi I am from Philadelphia I am starting this new journey and would like to know if theirs anyone out there in the beginning stages that want to be buddies. I am having my fist appointment on June 2 2017. I have started this all before but because I was missing to much work for appointments I stopped. Now that I found a Dr. Who will let me do all my test but one the same day I see light at the end. I did not tell many people besides my husband and daughter so would like to befriend someone else who is starting out. I am open to others even if already started it will be cool to also know what's ahead.

I can't stop reading and looking at all the post. Please let me know how you first go. I went to my first last year it wasn't that bad. I just couldn't take off of work like they needed me to. My insurance dont have no requirements like most. Just need a BMI of 40. How bout yours?

Hello!
Congrats on getting started! I'm new here and still trying to figure out the forum works. I just got my surgery date and it's set for June 15th! I would like a buddy also!

I have to do a full six months before getting a surgery date I believe. I was hoping more like three so I wouldn't be down during the holidays..I have the whole gambit of issues from Diabetes high blood pressure, high triglycerides, arthritis and a BMI of 49. I am 53 yrs old 5'2 weight 276. I cant see one reason to not get sleeved.

[BabyFat23 209]

@tee2008 congrats I can't wait to post a date. How long did you have to wait.

[BabyFat23 209]

@DJ Juice 6 months is a long time but I don't see no reason why you shouldn't have it. I will go thru the 6 months with you. I don't have any heath issues I am just fat I like sweets hell I love sweets.

@CaliCozyWozy Sleeve I think this is best for me. The band is not a option.

[DJ Juice 4]

I dont want to wait the 6 months because I am afraid Trump will take away insurance coverage because of the pre existing conditions crap he pushing so hard. Maybe that will get Wellcare to push it to go faster..lol

@TTT the sleeve

[jiminy_cricket 14]

Hi! I'm also from Philadelphia. I just received a date of June 15th and I start my liquid diet on June 2nd. I've only told my mom, spouse, and aunt, and the only one that's supportive is my aunt. I can empathize with you no having support.

[BabyFat23 209]

@jiminy_cricket congratulations on your date. last year I brought a conversation to my sisters and my mom about maybe getting the sleeve and guess what, they all had something to say. My sister are also over weight and for some reason they think they are a size 2 not. They are just as over weight as me. I am just ready to change. The only one who I can say really support me is my husband and daughter. So this time I am not telling anyone even when I get a date. It will be hard because we are all very close.
