I'm set for January 6 with Dr. Elisa Ortiz at the MI hospital in Tijuana Mexico.

I'm hoping to have a January date. My 90 day supervised 'everything' will be up January 3. Then submit to insurance. Then the wait...

My date is January 8th. My surgery will be done by Dr. Leon Katz at Crozer Chester Hospital near Philadelphia. My 2 week liquid diet starts Christmas Day! My gift to myself after a very bad year.

I am on Orange County, CA and am with Dr. Peter Leport at tha Fountain Valley Weight Loss Surgery Center. My date is Jan 16th. I am really happy and excited.

I have a jan 7th date. Super excited nervous and anxious all at the same time. Good luck to everyone.

Surgery date January 15th - lapband was removed November 26th - a whole new journey and I"m very excited. liquids begin January 1st:-) Good luck to all!

I am expecting to have my surgery in January - I just received my insurance approval. It's funny - I was confident and relaxed until I got the letter. Now I'm feeling nervous. I'm still looking forward to it, though.

Hello to all,

I don't have a date yet. I did my pych eval on last Monday and this Monday I met with the nutritionist and get my gallbladder ultrasound. The coordinator says after Monday she will submit it all to insurance, once approved I can make a apt to come see the Surgeon and set a date. She said surgery should be in Jan as long as insurance approves. I started this journey 04/18/2013. I am excited to join this online support group and look forward to reading about all your journeys

I am scheduled in for January 27, 2014 (my birthday) with Dr. Aceves in Mexico. I am so excited! :D

I don't have a set date as of yet but my final appt with my nutritionist is Dec 23rd, then everything gets submitted to the insurance company for approval...hopefully Cigna cooperates and my surgery gets scheduled by the end of January!! Keeping my fingers crossed!! :)

Hi All! I just signed up for bariatric pal, but have been lurking for a while. I am scheduled to be sleeved by Dr. A Lopez on January 8 at Mi Doctor Hospital in TJ, Mexico! I hope to find a sleeve buddy that will be there around that time, as I will be traveling alone.

Just a couple days over a month to go, and I can hardly wait! I am so ready for this!

My surgery is January 13th!!!!!! I meet with nurse and anesthesiologist in 12 days. Very excited!!!!

annielytical I'm looking for a buddy as well. I will be there a couple of days before you but I'm not leaving until the 10th. We will both be at the same hospital.
