Thanks everyone I will keep posting. Springlife I love the idea of being sleeve buddies keep me psoted. I had my pre-op yesterday, I also completed my Blood work, Chest X-ray, and EKG. I am all set. Now it is the waiting game. The next 11 days will take forever.

I am sending you good luck wishes. Everything will be fine.

I will be sleveed on May 19th so I am just a head of you. I am on day 4 of my pre-op liquid diet and today is ruff for me. But I wanted to welcome you and wish you luck.

Good luck sounds like you have got everything falling into place. I purchased my chewable calcium citrate from GNC website and saw some on Amazon's website.

I am starting day 3 of my full liquid diet and want to know does it get any easier or will it get harder as the days go by?:scared0:

Thanks, I still feel like I am dreaming.

Good luck with the surery and giving up the DP.

Congrats and keep posting your updates.

Glad your feeling better take it slow and keep posting updates for us.

Congrats on setting your date. Tommorrow I am having blood work, Urinalysis, chest X-ray, EKG done and then I need to get a medical clearance from my PCP. I have surgey on 5/19.

I also live in Chicago and I have a BCBS HMO I was approved for the sleeve. It is my understanding that BCBS PPO will not pay for the sleeve. Do you have a PPO?

Glad to hear that he is doing good. Tell him hang in there. keep us posted.

I got approved today!!!

I stopped drinking pop about a month ago and the last 2 week stopped putting sugar in my coffee.

I am May 19th.

I did I hit all my favorite places to eat and had lots of junk food. Today I started my 2 week liquids and hoping May 19th come really fast.

Good luck and keep us posted.

Today was day 1 of my 2 week liquid diet. I have surgery on May 19th.

I am on 5/19 I can't wait.

Thank you all for your support. I love this forum. I hope these next 2 week fly by. :thumbup:

I got approved by my insurance today. Started my liquid diet and my surgery will be on May 19th. OMG what a day. I feel like I am dreaming. How hard sill the next two weeks of nothing but liquids be? I am just about to blow up I have so many emotions run inside of me right now. Wow two more weeks and I will be sleeved. My new life will start.

Good luck let us know how it all went.

I also worried about telling my Mom and when I did she was like what does you PCP say and if he thinks it a good idea then so do I. I almost fell out. Good luck telling her.

Congratulations and good luck!

Good luck tomorrow you will do just fine.
