Just got the call, I'm approved!!! My nurse is out with a family emergency but they say she Should be calling tomorrow or this week to set my surgery date! I'm so happy

I just got my news and a date yesterday, 5 weeks to surgery, Dec 11th

congratulations, lots of luck to you

Congratulations! Good luck to you. It will be here before you know it.

I remember when i got the call- I was SOOO happy, i cried when i got off the phone. VERY happy for you!

Congratulations! I cant wait to get that sleeving date

How long for your weight management? 3,6 months?

I can't wait for the date to be scheduled. I'm nervous and excited lol. I've gained another 20lbs back since April and have been so miserable.

Did 3 months since its a revision from the lap band.

So I know it's only been 2 days since I got my approval but I'm dying to hear from my nurse for a surgery date lol! I keep having anxiety attacks over thinking surgery, recovery and fear of failing like i did with the band. Then find my left almost laughing at myself for being silly.

Congrats the time will go by fast

I'm am so blessed and excited to be getting the surgery, this I know but:

Got my surgery date, it's bitter sweet, can't do it till dec 10th. I'm heart broken because doctor had told me that I would be able to do it by thanksgiving and his nurse just said he doesn't know what he has going on.

Also means instead of being almost healed by Christmas that I'm gonna be really sore still

I'm happy to have the date but I'm also bawling because he had my hopes up for this month.

I asked her if she can see if she has any cancelations or anything they can do because all the time I saved up for surgery expires the 21st of December

So hoping for a miracle to get it moved up to be able to use my time.

Asherje: you might not be still sore... I had the sleeve. Was in the hospital for 2 days, 6 days total off from work, and went back to work on the 7 day- had no pain. It's going to all work out
