Hello,
I am new here and getting a consultation in Sept for the sleeve at St. Joseph hospital in Chicago. My BMI is 35 (weight fluctuates between 205-215) and since my early 30s (when I went from 130-175 the year my mom died), I've gained a bit every year after. I've been on every diet imaginable, with varied success but nothing permanent. Always regained. My all-time high weight was 230 and I'm not going to get back up there again. The sleeve is what I hope will be my last journey toward better health, eating normally and having energy!
So I have sleep apnea and high cholesterol. It seems like BCBS PPO may cover surgery but I'll find out for sure in September. My husband is skeptical that this will work, but I feel like this is my last resort.
I'm just so tired of how I look and feel.
Any successful sleevers - do you have any advice for those of us who hope to embark on the journey?
Thanks,
"Juney"
