Hello from hampton roads!



Recommended Posts

I had my first consult last week. These next 2 months are filled with Dr's appt's, and hopefully I will be able to get a surgery date. My husband is going to Iraq in September, so let's hope I can get it done before he leaves. Cheers Janie:smile2:

Hello Sunshine and Welcome!

You will find lots of info and friendly people here. Don't be afraid to ask questions. Your surgery date will depend on what insurance you carry and how fast they can get you through the tests. Sometimes it takes forever. Good luck to you and your husband!

      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.
