Yayayayayaya!!!!!

How long did it take from when you put in all you paper work and medicals. Im still waiting for my date.

Congrats to you! I know you are very excited. My surgery date is June 13th and I can't wait!

So jealous! I can't get my date set until I have my medical clearance but was told it should be somewhere between Jun 8-20 so I can't wait to get my official date! Congrats on getting your and best wishes in your new birthday!

June 20th unless approval comes sooner then June 1st what a gap

June is our month woo hoo

Thank you everyone. My Birthday is the 18th so Yes it is my Birthday Present!!!!!

June is going to be a spectacular Month!!!!!!!!!

My Paperwork was submitted sometime around the 20th and I got my approval yesterday, May 1st. Today the Dr. Office called to schedule the surgery date. Tomorrow I have my One on One with my Dr.

Wondering if he is going to put me on a liquid diet from now on going forward and Yikes!!! Nervous!!!!

Hey June Bandsters!!! I am having surgery on 6/12/12. I am also very, very excited!! I can't wait to begin this journey!!! Have you all headed over to the June Bandsters Board? If not, head on over and lets support each other along the way!!!

I have set a personal weight loss goal of 30lbs before surgery. Starting on 5/12 I am going to start a 1200cal diet for 2 weeks before I start my liquid diet. What are all of your weight loss goals?? Do you have to lose a certain amount before surgery?? Is your pre-op diet 2 weeks long?

Where is the June Bandsters Board? June is our month...woohoo!!!

Oh, and in answer to your question, I have to do a 7 day low carb, low calorie diet (1000 calories per day) for 7 days before my surgery. I am also to start taking a chewable vitamin (probably Flintstones), one Tums with Calcium tablet twice daily, and Benefiber as directed once a day. So it is not a total liquid diet. I don't have to lose a certain amount of weight before surgery. I lost a few pounds on my physician weight management program.

Congratulations! My surgery is scheduled for June 5th! yayyy!

I'm hoping to join this group! My paperwork should have been submitted to insurance yesterday. I'm hoping for mid-June, that would be perfect!

Mine is also scheduled for june 5th

Ahh very exciting! And stressful. I got my packet of information today about pre surgery. I'm nervous.

Me too and on the same day!!
