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?

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.

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!

      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?
