Just got my date today. My dr is submitting to the insurance, and hopefully it all works out. Any tips for my last month?

I'm being banded July 5th!!! I'm still awaiting the insurance approval. We are in the same boat! Tips appreciated!

Congrat everyone I am so happy for you & a little jealous good luck

DeAna N -- I understand as I was also jealous when everyone kept writing I got my surgery date! I'm still in shock a bit - a bit anxious until I see the approval from insurance. I'm so excited and hopeful.

Although you are so excited for everyone in the back of your mind your like....." I want a surgery date too" ( said as I'm pouting like a two yrs old ) LOL

Seriously it is great to follow everyones progress and after hear them go from dispare to overjoyed you can help but get excited for them and cheer them on...I know my date is coming in due time I can be patient...I think

I'm hopefully getting banned on the 8th is there any uk banders on here?

I get banded the week of july 9 can't wait!!!! Start preop diet 2 weeks before that.

I just got approved by insurance so I am all in for July 6th. I only have 2 days liquids before surgery and low cal (no fats, no refined sugar) for 1 week before that. -- at least that is what I think. I guess i will find out at my preop meeting next thursday.

I am tempted to do a food bucket list.... bad idea right? I should go to the all you can eat brazilian steak house and eat chilis crispy chicken tenders for all my meals, chinese buffet?

I an so happy I got my day today, July 18. I can't wait to have my surgery done and start my journey to a healthy life and better eating habits. I read a lot about the pre-op diet. Can anyone tell me a little about it?

Thank you
