Thanks, ladies! I appreciate the support and advice. Will definitely talk to my doctor on Monday. I try to be patient and let them get in touch with me, but I need answers...June 24 is just one itty bitty month away!

Thanks DcMak72 you are right before me look forward to hearing about your journey :)

June 14. Really anxious' date=' having trouble sleeping. Just still in the dark about a lot. No mention of a pre-op diet. Im doing self-pay since my insurance doesn't cover it, but now I'm wondering if I should ask my doctor to talk to them. Wondering if this will actually work or if I'm putting myself into debt for no reason. Ugghhhh! Trying to stay confident about my decision, but I'm worried about everything right now![/quote']

Hi Julie! We are sleeve sisters! June 14 in VA! Lets travel this journey together. Wolfgirl on here is also june 14. Please keep reading this forum and u will be prepared. There is sooooo much info on here!! Congrats!

june 4th for me as long as the office and myself stay on top of insurance for approval :-)

good luck everyone

June 4th seems so soon! They told me to expect a mid June early July date but insurance came back with an approval in 3 days instead of weeks like we anticipated! I feel like everything has just fallen into place so it must be meant to be but I'm still nervous as all get out! I wish you all the best of luck! Let's keep each other updated on our progress! I have friends that support me but none are overweight so they really don't fully understand. I love this forum!!

Your right on the support from non overweight people.... It helps to talk to someone thats been in your shoes so to speak.... June sleevers ROCK!!!!!

I'm praying for a June date. Currently I'm waiting on a response from the insurance company.

So i started my preop diet, surgeon wanted me to start early coz I've gained weight...so been drinking protein shakes all day and I'm so sick of it already (this is day 4) so to switch it up a little I'm having spicy kimchi broth for dinner yumm!! It really hit the spot!
