- I'm currently 7 months post-op in my bariatric surgery journey. I had the vertical sleeve gastrectomy surgery in March 2022. In this video, I talk about the bariatric program I chose, my pre-op diet, the emotional barriers along the way, post-op care, weight loss progress and what life looks like today.

Can you tell me more about ur thyroid and pcos situation
Thank you for reaching out! I did a more in-depth video about my PCOS journey. It’s in my Bariatric Surgery/PCOS playlist. I got diagnosed with hypothyroidism and was on medication before bariatric surgery. After surgery, my numbers improved so I went off of medication. At about 1.5 years post-op, I needed to go back on thyroid medication. Hope this helps! 😊
Bravo! gorgeous uploadin~gsee you later!😈
How much did you end up paying for your surgery??
With insurance coverage, I ended up paying $8800 and was able to finance it through a company Blossom recommended. Prices are always different depending on insurance and where you go to get it done. Hope that helps!
I really enjoyed your story, thanks for sharing with us. I too had gastric sleeve four months ago having a great experience so far my only downfall is constipation, but pushing through it I take MiraLAX every day. I’m surprised with insurance you had to pay so much out of pocket. I was so fortunate to pay my deductible and my insurance covered the rest.
@@sherrytiago6930 Congratulations on your journey! Yes, the constipation was rough for me in the beginning too. Miralax was super helpful. I’m glad my story has been helpful!
