Hi scheduled for 1/13. I ask did my grocery shopping this weekend for my pre op that I start this Wednesday . It's getting close, and I'm nervous! !!

January 13th long island ny

Good luck!

Ya we all seem to be having our sugery the same week, yes we all should keep this going and give updates on how we are doing. It seems that everyone has started their pre op diet. I have only to do a week. How come? Don't get me wrong I'm glad bit would have thought I would have 2 weeks as well.

Thank you all for your Input.

Well I went shopping today for my pre op liquid diet supplies, which I start Wednesday the 6th. This week I have my final appointment with my surgeon on Monday and as well with starting my pre op diet on Wednesday I also have the pre op testing at the hospital. Then Thursday is my primary Dr clearance. I real busy week. Not to mention getting this settled at work before I leave for my surgery which is the 13th . I'm getting really worried on how I'm going to feel, during the week without really eatting, and having so much to do. I can't help but feel so overwhelmed with everything.

Thank you everyone for your input.

Thank everyone for the input, I sure hope i have an easy recovery.

Surgery is Wednesday the 13th and coming home Friday 15th so it's only 2 days. I would go crazy if it was 4 days.

Best of luck to you both.

I'm having my surgery in 2 weeks, on the 13th. I should be coming home that Friday. I'm worried because my husband will be home with me the day I come home but he will be going to work Saturday and Sunday. I'm afraid that I will need help. I was wondering how everyone who has already had the surgery handled being home the first few days..

When do you start your pre op diet?

Surgery Date January 13th, I'm in New York long island. Starting pre op diet on the 6th.

I have to do a week of liquids and the day before all clear liquids, thats going to be tough with my husband and kids around .

I was just wondering if anyone has been told that they can have regular coffee during the pre op diet? I only drink 1 cup in the morning

I am having my surgery same day January 13. When do you start your pre op diet?

My last post was posted by mistake sorry

I'm having my surgery the day after your.

It's official I'm having my surgery on January 13tb. My insurance approved my surgery in 1 day. I have so many feelings good and bad. My dr told me that there is a small chance that she may have to do it open. That is one big thing I'm worried about . Has anyone have that happen to them

What Dr did you use? How is your recovery going?

I'm looking for sleeve buddies from my area, that we can share our experiences. I'm looking to have my surgery in January, Hopefully. I have had all my requirements except finshing up with the weigh ins.

I'm hoping to have my surgery in January, but I'm worried that won't happen. I was originally told that since I see my primary Dr monthly for medication renewals that would most likely could be counted towards the 6 months requirement. But I just learned that it says something about supervised diet for six months. My 3rd visit with the nut is next week. The person that does the authorization said that she wouldn't be putting anything in my insurance until after Thanksgiving. I sure hope that isn't the case, my husband and I are taking our kids to Disney in April and I don't want to be unable to eat normal food. (past all the liquid part post op ).

Hope you feel ...

Hi there again, I would call them and let them decide, what a long drive for them to just tell you that you will need to reschedule. I have had this done, not for the surgery but for other reasons. If you have anthing that affects your breathing they usally won't do it. Good luck

That makes sense.
