Just seeing if anyone else is being banded in May. Our time is coming quickly and before we know it, it will be here.

I have my final appointment with my surgeon on April 11th! Looks like I will be FINALLY getting surgery in May. This process has taken FOREVER! I started everything in October, so I am definitely ready to finally get it done. The anticipation is killing me!

Have one more weigh in, and a stress test to do.... And, then off to the insurance for approval..

I am scheduled for May 6th. The approval process actually stunned me. My last supervised weight loss appointment was on February 18th I got an approval on Feb. 28th. I was given April 1st as the 1st possible surgery date, but unfortunately I could not get off work due to state testing at my school. The next possible date was May 6th. Since my birthday is at the end of May, I consider it a very swanky birthday gift to myself.

I hope that my surgery is schedule for may too! happyyyy ))Good luck everyone!

I am scheduled for surgery on April 18th. Currently on my 2 week diet. I am getting very excited.

I am 99% sure that I'll be getting mine in May. I just had my pre-op medical and psych clearance, plus clearance from the nutritionist. Now, my doc just wants me to lose 20 pounds, and I only have 8 more to go! I'll be heading back in after those 8 are gone, and then the date will be set.

I'm going to be banded in May, I just don't know what date yet!

I had my last nutrition appointment last night! It finally feels so real. I go on Wednesday for my sleep study results. I hope eveything went okay because my surgery is already scheduled for May 11th. I hope I don't have to have a repeat sleep study with the CPAP machine; I guess I'll find out Wednesday.

May 3 is my date. I'm not nervous at this point. I have pre-surgical supplements, but no diet. Do you? I'm thinking of stikcing mostly to protein drinks the week before, anyway.

I have a 2 week liquid diet and I don't even get to choose my own brand of protein drink. My Dr only has 2 choices both of which you have to get through him. But I'm ok with that I guess.

I have my medical clearance on March 23rd. My last nutrition appt is April 7th and I am also hoping to get my results back from my sleep study around this time. I saw my pulm. on the 9th, which was my last doctor I needed to see and the soonest I could get me in for a sleep study was March 27th and results take 2 weeks to get back. When I first met with my surgeon he scheduled my surgery for May 11th. I think I will have exactly 31 days when I get my sleep study results, hopefully that is enough time to submit to Cigna and get an approval.

when i did my sleep study i got it back in a week and had to go back in for other one cause i have sleep app and have a cpap now so good luck and make sure you go there sleepy

I was told not liquid diet was required but that the doctor would suggest that I incorporate Protein shakes into my diet prior to the surgery. I meet with him on the 25th to go over the surgery.

My surgery date is May 4th, 2011!! I have been waiting since October because my insurance had put me on a waiting list and now the

time is here! I cannot wait and good luck to you!

I went there sleepy the first time, but I could fall asleep. I think they need to come up with a way to do these studies at peoples houses. They would probably get better results. I also think I was worried about not letting the pulse ox fall off my finger when I was sleeping. I was so tired and couldnt stop yawning, but I had to wait because the tech was hooking someone up before me. It was wayyy past my normal bedtime.
