I got my date today, August 23rd!!! I'm in Lancaster, Pa surgeon is Dr Ichter Lancaster General Hospital. I've also lost 20lbs since my consultation with a goal of 7lbs more for a 10% loss before the presurgery diet. Goal date of 8/15.
Honestly, I've been struggling with the wait. I am just ready to look on the outside how I feel on the inside. I also have some traveling coming up in August and October so that's causing me some additional stress. I want to feel good enough to go on vacation in October, but have a memorial service for my grandmother 10 hours away in he middle of August.
Hi Deanna! It looks like I'm on a similar time schedule as you. I've done the initial meeting with the surgeon, 2 educational sessions, psych eval, exercise eval, EKG/lab work, and 2 Dietitian visits. I'm in Pennsylvania working with Dr Ichter through Healthy Weight Management (Lancaster General Hospital). I am hoping for a late August/early September surgery date.
I am on track for Late August/Early September. I am getting excited/impatient. I know it will be here before I know it. How's everyone else doing with the wait?
