:whoo::whoo::whoo::whoo::whoo::whoo::whoo::whoo::whoo::whoo:

I am sitting in my house sorting laundry and the phone rings its a recording. It says to call my health insurance for information within the next 7 days, and gives me an access code. Im still like WTH??

So i call and wham, the lady says "Your approval code for your MT Sinai Hosp stay is blah blah blah your date is JANUARY 30 2008 have a nice weekend!"

I had no idea he submitted the paper work. Last he said to me was get this blood work(hands me a paper) done and says see you in a couple of weeks.

Holy sh_t im cant stop crying and laughing. Im on my way to BANDLAND!:clap2::clap2::clap2::clap2::clap2::clap2::clap2::clap2::clap2::clap2:

congratulations Tamika,

read, read, read. if you go the complications posts, read them and dont go back. Start practicing your chewing, putting your fork down between bites and excercise. let us know your surgery date.

Ok now that i have calmed my nerves some, does anyone know if we can reschedule once we have a date? I was just thinking thats not enough time for me to get everything i need and my son straighten out.

Just asking, I will keep the date if I have to.

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

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
