Im due to have gastric bypass 25th September anyone else?

Im getting banded in September as well, but im worried about being able to stick to the preop diet, i kindof think if were able to be so disciplined in xalorie restriction, i wouldnt be overweight and needing the surgery. Anyone else jave these thoughts?

I am scheduled to get banded Sept 4th. I have my pre-op appointments on tuesday August 28th. So far I have no idea if I will have a pre-op diet. I'm hoping not I'm excited, but also nervous. This is going to be a HUGE change. It will be nice to have support from those going through the same thing.

Hopefully me, last PCP Aug 30th then everything to Aetna.

I had my last med supv visit last week; now waiting for insurance approval. Hoping for Sept surgery real soon!

I'm also getting banded September 10th. I'm excited and nervous like everyone else. My pre-op diet is just 1500 calories and low fat. I hear a lot of people do the liquid diets, but my surgeon says its not necessary. I'm a single mom and I'm really worried about being able to get back to normal activities ASAP.

Being banded Sept 4th' date=' start my pre-op diet on Tuesday and just got my approval letter from my insurance in the mail today!!!![/quote']

Hello Fellow Sept Banders,

This has been a long journey, and I finally have a date of surgery on 9/27! I have my pre-op diet on Wednesday, and start the liquid diet on 9/12.

Good luck!

I'm getting banded Sept 17th. So excited. Lots of things eager for but also definetly concerned as well!!

I have been 2 years attempting to meet the conditions of my insurance. After changing insurances and doing their requirements for 1 year I just got my approval August 16 and I went to my appointment for my Pre Op diet last week. Started it today, I have my appointment with the surgeon tomorrow, can't wait, will get my date that should be in next two weeks. I am so nervous and excited I can't stand it.
