    Smile Preop Journey

    Hi my name is Amanda, I just recently had my second visit on my journey to my sleeve surgery. My final appointment is June 19th then we submit to insurance for approval. I am excited, nervous, and scared all at the same time. Looking for some extra encouragement

    Welcome here to this board with all its wonderful people!
    Exiting times for you ahead.
    We have all been there, done that (the most of us anyway)
    You will do great, as long as you are 100% committed.
    Read and learn as much as you can and ask us a lot of questions!
    And you can start right now by getting used to not drinking anything with your meals.
    You will be fine!
    English is not my first language anymore, so I may and do make mistakes in my spelling, or say things oddly. Please ask me, if you want any clarifications.

    Hi Amanda. Only you can make the decision if the sleeve is right for you but I can tell you my only regret is waiting so long to take the plunge. I know that I am thankful everyday for my decision and I am loving my sleeved life.

    Being sleeved is the single best thing that I have ever done for myself. I just wish I had the finances to have done it years ago.
    My life has changed dramatically - for the better.
    Keep being excited - it's a great time and you won't believe how different your life will be.
