I am also scheduled for July 9th. Pre-op appt is tomorrow.

I'm so nervous!!

I'm July 9th-started by pre-op diet on 6/27.

Keystone -health plan east PA

Nervous but ready!

Not sure how to add a friend but my surgery is also July 9th. Good luck to ya!

I stand corrected. I talked to my surgeon's on-staff nutritionist and I will be participating in a low-fat diet 2 weeks prior to surgery. Sboulie, can you pm your diet plan?

And let's face it, I'm thinking we all have fatty livers. Please for the sake of peace of mind I would do a week of preop and fasting the day before surgery. If anyone wants an example PM me and I can send you my preop. It is sooo worth doing and not impossible to follow

I'm in Monroe. Surgery is set for July 9th. let's keep in touch!

My doctor has not mentioned anything about a pre-surgery diet. Which is strange to me, seeing that so many of you mention it. Anyone know why some physicians would require a pre-surgey diet and/or some that wouldn't require it?

That's funny.....I never thought about it like that but you are right. It IS like planning a wedding! Hopefully with a fantastic honeymoon!!!

July 31 here. I was approved last week via Aetna and having surgery at NYU. I feel unprepared! I feel like I need to have my stash of Vitamins, shakes and pops ready now. Headed to Italy for two weeks and them start my pro- op diet. I'm nervous. I don't know what to expect. I need to get my gym member ship. I feel like I'm planning a wedding. Sigh.... Here' to it all coming together.

Louisiana here too! Got my insurance approval today for July 9th surgery. Lots of mixed emotions but excited for the most part.

Hey ya'll!! (First post ever) I just got my insurance approval for the sleeve surgery. Many mixed emotions! Surgery date is scheduled for July 9th. I look forward to chatting with you all and sharing experiences.
