I would like to schedule my surgery for the first full week in March once my insurance is approved, any other March Sleevers in the building?

I was scheduled today for march 25th

So excited!

I might need to stop reading the posts on this forum

Too many are indicating that the weight is slow to come off

I don't want to be disappointed after going thru this

Dr lavin in Louisiana is doing my sleeve

I'm in New Orleans with Dr. Ritchardson at Ochsner!!!! Hello my Louisiana friend.

Wow, Sumsuz68, everything you just said could have been written by me. The doubts, the 3 kids, not super big, the blood pressure meds, the sleep apnea. Good luck, I'm sure everything will be ok! Even better than ok, it will be a whole new life. I'm on March 8, so I'm a week behind you.

Wow, bigdaddyjoe. We really are alike! I just looked at your profile and we have the same amount of weight we want to lose, only 2 years apart and Ben the same birthday month. Too funny!

I'm March 1st. Way to start a month with a bang! So looking forward to it, but I do have this annoying devil on my shoulder whispering things like is it the right thing to do? What If something happens? You have 3 children counting on u...what if things go wrong? I'm not super big (35 BMI), but obviously I'm big enough if they are allowing me to have surgery. If I don't do it now I know I will keep going up up up and having to get on more meds. I need this tool like nobodies business. I need to get off my sleep apnea machine and lood pressure meds. Will someone please shoot this stupid devil on my shoulder?!

I'm march 1 too. I'm also not that big 33-34 bmi. I have the same devil on my shoulder too trying to razz up my anxieties!

Do you need me to shoot your devil on your shoulder too? Good luck! Are you on your pre op diet now? 1 more week for me. Woo hoo!

Yes, please shoot him! I only have 1 week of pre-op diet, so not yet for me.

March 7th for me! I'm so excited! Good luck everyone!!

Add me for March 26th

Add me for march 25

I already added you to the latest list this morning, slidellsleever.

March 28th!!!!!!!!! Can anyone tell I'm excited?!

I'm shooting for March 7th. I have my stress echo, one month followup with my dr. and psych eval tomorrow. On Monday, I have my Upper GI, Nutrition consult, and Sleep Study. I've heard my dr. does a lot more preop testing than most, but better safe than sorry!

I started my clear liquid/protein shake diet today. Is anyone else feeling like gagging from the texture of the shakes? Any suggestions?

PS.... Add me to the list please!

I'm March 4!
