September here I come!

I will finish my 12 month monitored weight coach in August. I'm hoping to have a September surgery date.

I hear you. Now' date=' I'm a nervous wreck because I don't know if insurance will cover me? Have to wait until August after my last RD visit to submit my case to insurance and then wait to see what the verdict is! But, yeah, I want this done yesterday![/quote']

I am trusting and believing you will be covered.

Congrats...I just noticed your ticker....great job losing 19 lbs already!! :rolleyes: Are you doing any specific diet?

Thanks! I started drinking 2 shakes a day with a low fat dinner and stepped up my exercise. Getting my mind right before surgery day.

Hey all! Looks like my surgery will be in September also! I finish all my appts in July but I'm going on vaca end of August so I'll have to do the surgery in Sept. I'm anxious beyond belief!

Hi Everyone,

Finally scheduled on Sept 3rd with Dr Alvarez in MX :) . It seems so far away but I bet it will come up fast! IS anyone else on here having surgery with Dr Alvarez around this time?

I just had my pre surgery testing and sleep study in August probably will have surgery in September i cant wait.

I hope my surgery is in September. My final medically supervised diet appointment is the end of August and from what I hear, my insurance is pretty quick at approvals. I've completed all other requirements and my psyc appointment Aug 5th. I really hope the surgery happens the middle or end of September. :) My surgeon said as soon as we have insurance approval I will be put on the schedule for surgery pretty quick! I'm starting to get nervous/anxious but I made myself a list of all the reasons why I'm doing this and I have to keep reminding myself of these things.

I just got my date today and it is September 10th. I was hoping to do it in August but I had to work around work so September it is. I've been doing all the insurance hoops since January so an extra few weeks is okay. The reality is hitting me now so I'm pretty much a ball of nerves and self doubt right now.

I have September 19 in Tijuana Mexico with Dr. Louisianna Valenzuela. I am super excited. It is has been a long, tiresome road and I am so happy to be able to have this gift. A great tool to help me be the healthy person that has been waiting to come out. I hope to meet some of the other sleevers in Mexico. Can't wait to see everyone's pictures and hear your stories.

september 30th here but I am going to call today to see if I can get it moved up. I cant wait any longer to start my new life.
