Hello everyone ! I'm so excited and scared and the same time. Well my date is set for January 16th. I will startup liquids on jan 2nd this will be for two weeks . Looking to see this new me and much more.

Congratulations!

You must be thrilled to have a date! I am hoping to have surgery in January. Hope all goes well with you! Please keep us posted!

Congrats to you on your date!!! My procedure will be Jan. 3. I have my pre-op appointment on 12/18 so I assume he will tell me what diet I will need to be on and etc. I am nervous, happy, scared, excited...I don't even know what to do with myself right now...

I'm set for Jan 9 provided my insurance approves it! My paper work was sent in on Dec 4 and I am still waiting to hear from them. I hope they hurry soon I don't want to go thru the preop diet for nothing.

My surg date is Jan 8th. I am so excited but scared at the same time. I guess I am afraid of failure. I can not stick to a diet so how will I keep the weight off 10 years from now. I am glad the surgery group I am going to has support groups.

Congrats! It is exciting to get your date, isn't it!! My surgery is set for January 2nd and my pre-op appointment is Monday the 17th. I am super excited and nervous at the same time. Good luck to you!

Change your thought process. It's not easy but it can be done. You are not a failure at all , be thankful that you have this chance to make your life better. Support groups are great and just put yourself around positive people.☀☺

You have been waiting since December 4th? Has your surgeon's office called to get an update or least confirmed that your insurance got your request? I used to work with medical insurance companies. Might want to check on things and make sure no one has dropped the ball.
