    Default A little heartbroken

    This surgery and the weightloss that can be achieved with the sleeve feels almost to good to be true. I learned today it will not be a possibility for me to get the sleeve this year. I've been mourning my dream of being thin today. I'm not giving up on getting the sleeve by any means, it will just take a long time to get there.

    I'm sorry you've had this setback but that's all that it is, a setback. Stay positive and believe that the timing just wasn't right for now. Hugs!

    I'm sorry to hear that but stay positive. There may still be a way for you to get it this year, if not, then next year is better than never. It is comkpletely worth the wait! Good Luck and I wish you the best!

    Probably A Lot heartbroken, I'm guessing...I know I would be-- I was so afraid my doc was not going to do this, as my BMI when I started was on the very low side. I know I would have been devistated if he would have said no--but that didn't happen, but your situation is different...HANG IN THERE! Your time will come!! it's just a little farther in the future, but it will come!

    I am sorry to hear that, having to struggle myself to have this...needing to keep up private health insurance plus pay fees associated. I wish I had the money to be able to send it to you but I am sure you will get there. This is just a little hiccup,please stay positive.

    I am a firm believer that things happen (or don't happen) for a reason. this will give you more time to prepare for the changes to come...so start healthier eating habits...to start exercising. Please don't give up your dream...it will happen.

    I'm heartbroken for you. Times are so tough for everyone right now. I know your financial situation has changed, but maybe it will change for the better sooner than later! This is a temporary setback.

    Patience is something that I do NOT have. I hope things work out for you! Big hugs!
