I am June 25. Super excited.

Will you add my sister to this list? She is SouthernDonna45 and she is having surgery with Dr. Alvarez June1st, 2012!

Added, thank you for the update!

No shopping for me YET. I got three dress in the back of my closet and moved them to the front of my closet. They're two sizes too small. I've missed them dearly. Now they're the first thing I see when I sit up in bed in the morning. Here I come, red dress!!!

Added Tonibugg - and was wondering when your surgery is Trcyprkr70?

I am still waiting on my insurance authorization. All of my steps has been completed. I called the doctor office yesterday and was told it take up to three weeks.

Hi @ Trcyprkr70' date='

I'm having surgery with Dr. Coirin Modesto as well this Friday, June 1st. Good luck to you! [/quote']

I wish the best on your journey to becoming a new you. Wish I was going to be a June sleever. How long did you have to wait before hearing an answer from your insurance? Also after you was approved by your insurance how long did you have to wait for a surgery date?

This is great! I bought underwear two sizes smaller thinking that I would need them first before any of my clothes! A "mini goal" outfit is a great idea! I think I will shop this weekend for one. I'll leave it on the hanger and dangle it like a carrot! Thanks for the idea! Come on June..........................

I'm waiting to get my surgery date before I buy something. I saw this hott swimsuit in the mall the other day but I got a feeling that my surgery won't be done early enough to buy it and wear it this summer. Maybe I will buy some jeans and fitted shirt for my goal motivation after I get my date. Actually smaller undies sounds like a good place to start. :-)

I'm June 11th as well...no need to buy any clothes right now...I think I have 3 different sizes in my 2 closets (I've lost and found 100 pounds twice before) plus I dress for comfort, not style.....so I will work with those until people began to complain about them being too big! LOL

I am June 12th. Very Excited' date=' and anxious! <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Wow, I am June 11th, too! nice to share with someone else.

June 15th here!!!!

Hi, friends just came home from the hospital. They were doing some Pre-op lab works for Monday surgery.. On Friday they will give me a call to tell me the time I should be at the hospital. Well like I said before am very anxious but happy......

I finished my preop labs and registration yesterday. Today they called to let me know my 8am surgery had to be moved up to 10 am I've

waited this long though so 2 more hours shouldn't hurt!

Hi,

I just saw this so sorry for the late response. My insurance approved me in 7 days, even though the office told me it can take up to 30 days. Then when they called, which was May 7 they wanted book me for May.22nd. Which is not bad at all, but the next mandatory pre op class wasn't until May 30th, which gave me my June 1st date. Have you heard anything yet? Or tried calling?

I called the doctors office on Tuesday and the scheduling nurse told me that it can take anywhere between two to three weeks.
