I have a tentative surgery date of May 9th. I still have to do the endoscopy which is scheduled for May 3rd. If it shows I have a hernia then I will have to wait until May 16th :angry: so that the dr's office can get clearance from the insurance co. to repair the hernia and do the band at the same time. I'm soooo anxious!

i hope to be banded in may. dr. office submitted to insurance after last nutrisionst class on March 30 still waiting to hear from them. I called Mon. to find out what i needed to do and tell them my last 6 month will be Thurs. they said go ahead and fax dr records to their office but they already sumitted to insurance and they havent requested 6 months records yet. I was shocked i thought they needed my 6 months first. i guess they thought they would send it upon request. idk. im so excited and hope to be approved soon and get a may date.

My surgery has officially been scheduled for May 17th. I start my pre-op diet on May 3rd. I am very excited. Did any of you have a "last Meal"? My dietician told me that she didn't reccomend it because I will be getting food back, but I feel I want to have one last really good meal before I start the liquid diet.< /p>

Thanks, Michelle

I had SEVERAL last meals. I had them for about a week solid! what can i say, i was in panic mode.

my surgery is May 4th and I don't know how much weight i gained during my last week of meals, but i'm 15 pounds below what i weighed at the last visit to the doctor's office, so that is what counts (for me).

i'm glad i had that quality time to spend with burgers, pizzas, steaks, fajitas, etc...i will cherish those memories of the last time i was able to eat without chewing first. :P

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
