December Sleevers??



Recommended Posts

@Imamami05,

My first appointment with the surgeon was May 30th. My insurance (UHC) has required a 6 month supervised diet, one nutritionist appointment, and one psych. My 6th appointment is 10/20 and then in Nov I will have my pre op appointment. If all things go well with the insurance company. I also changed insurance companies in July from Aetna to UHC and their requirements were the same. I am so glad the 6 months are finally over. It was long as well as to fly by if you know what I mean. Good luck!!! After all I have been reading I know it is worth the wait. I can't wait for my tool so I can start this journey of someone I never thought I would see. Me being small!!!! I have not loss much weight maybe a few pounds during my supervised weightloss. But I know my surgeon will do great!

Newbie here! First post ;) I am likely going to have a December date but the surgeon is talking to the nutritionist and scheduler one more time. Is it terrible of me to try and be pushy?? :D I really want to get it done by the end of the year as I've already met my deductible. I've done the sleep study, psych, nutritionist, etc etc.. ready for my new beginning! :780_sparkling_heart:

I am scheduled for December 13th in Tiajuana with Dr. Illian. I am super excited but nervous as well. I am reading as much as I can and getting all of the food that I can't eat out of my house.

I am now tentatively on the books for Dec 4th. I am so nervous ... I wont believe it until Im actually in the O.R. This has been such a long journey so far. I had my info meeting in January of this year. Last week they scheduled me for Nov 14th and then they moved me to Dec 4th. I hate to get my hopes up anymore.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
