I am tentatively scheduled for April 27th pending insurance approval. I should find out in a couple of weeks. I am so excited and afraid at the same time. Did you have to do the 6 month insurance visits to cope with? I am glad to have a buddy going through the same things I am. good luck

April 11th with Dr Almanza. I'll start my preop diet on March 30th just because I want to give my body the BEST possible chance for a great surgery and recovery. I am also looking forward to the "clean' feeling you get from high Protein liquid diets. I've been on the lose weight gain weight diets pills fads extremes roller coaster for 16 years and I'm ready to cross the bridge to FREEDOM!!!

I wish you the very best and look forward to hearing your results!!

I am an April 11th Sleever as well and I so cannot wait. Just talked to the Nurse today and she mailed out the pre-op diet info and is calling me tomorrow to schedule my final appointment I believe before my surgery. I feel like a giddy little schoolgirl and Icannot stop watching these dang forums, they are addictive.

I'm having surgery on April 12 with Dr. Nicholson and am really looking forward to it being here already. The anticipation is hard and I'm getting nervous.

I'm starting a full-body cleanse that my Naturopathic doctor recommends, called mediclear, to make sure my body is in the best condition for healing. I'm trying to be as prepared for the changes as possible and have also started seeing a therapist to help me work through my food issues and any emotions that come up. I really need to face my food demons since I've been eating Haagen-Daz for supper every night this week because I knew I'd be starting a cleanse then a liquid diet right away.

April 13!!! Start preop liquid diet the 30th. Can't wait!!!

april 6th! let me know if you want my email and we can chat :)

April 12th is my big day, like everyone else excitement mixed with a few nerves. Start my pre-op diet March 29th, can't wait to just get on with it. Can't believe I'll be in Puerto Vallarta not being able to eat and drink Cerveza, that'll be a first! Oh well, can't think of a nicer place to be for post op, layin by a pool...ahhh.
