I know.. Time is standing still right now... Oh well we have the rest of our lives right!

I am!! I'm mommawooly

You flipped dates with me.. I was scheduled for the 6th and got rescheduled for the 7th.. Funny

Thank you sooo much... Need buddies that are going through the same thing!!

Date was changed to July 7th .. Only 1 day out but this waiting sucks.. Wish it was tomorrow

I'm July 6th so will be cheering you all on!! I don't do liquid until 3 days before..

Great post.. Just what I needed.. My surgery is scheduled for July 6th!!

July 15th.. What a great day.. That my birthday.. I will be 1 week post op by then... CANNOT wait to see how us July sleeves do!!!

Congrats! Hopefully you will get a date set soon! Fingers crossed for you! My date is July 10th for the sleeve. Eeekk! I have gone to my closet with winter clothes in it and it's all I can do to keep from snatching them all out and burning them in the drive way!!! Love the idea of burning my old clothes..... But some I spent a fortune on so I guess I'll donate.. Oh what a sweet day that will be......

I'm July 6th.. I wish it was tomorrow.. This waiting is the pits.. Just ready to get going!!

Thank you for posting!! So inspiring!!

Love the food funeral ideas.. I was going to try to be good but... My birthday is a week after my surgery.. So I think I'll celebrate this month!!

Thank you GaNanny for the inspiration.. I cannot wait!! Sometimes I try to visualize what the future will look and feel like!!

ha ha that's classic.. Anyone doing any food funerals??

Trying to get ready also.. I'm reading a lot and making lists of things I need.. Trying out shakes is a great idea have you heard that your tastes change?? I also went back to my boot camp just a couple days a week to try to build up my stamina.. Oh yes also bought a fit bit to track everything.,

So happy there are more July sleevers.. Knowing there are others going through the similar situation is reassuring!!

Me too!! I sure wish it was sooner.. Hate the waiting game!! So ready!!

Yea!!! More July sleevers!! I'm July 6th and counting down the days!!

Love reading the post and advice.. I am 54 and surgery is scheduled for July 6th.... I have a horrible time sleeping and hope to get some increased energy and a good nights sleep somewhere along this journey.....

Love love love this thread!! I am 54 and just got my surgery date yesterday!! July 6th!! Excited for this journey to start.. Spent to much wasted time upset when diets fail or workout out 2-3 hours a day and losing nothing.. Ready to love again!!

Just got my date!! July 6th... Excited, scared, thrilled apprehensive all rolled into one.. Good luck to all the July sleevers!! Can't wait for this journey to start!!

I am APPROVED by insurance..... Waiting to work with the scheduler on surgery dates... I spoke to the patient advocate today and tried to get a feel for how far out the surgeon is booked since he is VERY busy and I have several long planned actions this summer... The patient advocate said my doc does not want you to leave the state for at least a month after surgery... Anyone else have that? If that is true and with my actions already planned and paid I would be looking at late fall or winter and I AM so excited I want to do it now!!!

Thank you SO much ladies.... It is great to read your successes.... I am waiting for insurance and then a surgery date..... I go from scared to excited to thinking I've lost my mind..... The month after with mostly liquids is a little frightening but Ive been eating less and following some of the BUT recommendations to get ready.... I have a new job so older have a week of sick leave so will need to walk a lot so I can return to work after a week... What is your best tip for success?

Thank you for this thread.. I have a relatively low bmi and hear the same things.. Shock that I qualify and that I don't look like I need it.. This thread is very reassuring.. Thank you

Thank you for this question.. I am close to these numbers but keep saying I haven't done it for all these years on my own so what makes me think I can do it now?? Just get apt of people saying I don't think you need to something so drastic..
