I finally got a surgery date!!!!!! April 8 th!!!! I'm so excited I could burst! I would like to keep up with other April sleevers, pre-op diets, protien shakes, progress, stats, any concerns, etc. Lets hear it for new beginnings!

I just scheduled my surgery today for April 18th. Would love a support system too. My email is kbrandy31@yahoo.com

Awesome. Mine is weezie99@ hotmail.com. How excited r we?!?!?!

I'm super excited and super nervous all at the same time. Having surgery in Tijuana is the most gutsy thing I've ever done

Well u go girl! I wouldn't have been opposed to MX, but my insurance does cover it. I would have done whatever it took to get it if it wasn't covered though. I'm pretty sure after all my deductibles and co-pays it might be more expensive than MX! I've heard great success stories from MX.

Thanks for starting the thread - I just got the call today that my surgery is set for April 8th, too! After years of thinking about this, it's hard to believe it will all be happening in just under 6 weeks! Excited and cannot wait! :0)

Simone we will have the same surgiversary!!! I've been thinking on weight loss surgery for 7+ years. I can't believe it wither that it finally is here. When does your pre op diet start?

I will be an April sleeves, too ! I'm scheduled for April 15th. Excited, nervous but not worried. I think biggest problem right now is finding a protein shake I will like ! Can't wait to share stories and progress ! Good luck to all !

I haven't recieved my info on the protein shakes or pre op diet yet. Which have you heard are best?

I haven't heard that any are the "best" only been told to get samples and try them to decide which one I like the best. I've also ordered, and received, all my bariatric Vitamins for post surgery.

I've tried two so far, one was sooo gross (52e chocolate). I tried one that was decent (lean body on the go vanilla ice cream) I got both at an HEB plus. I have some bariatric advantage that my doctors office recommends, gonna try one in the am. I've hear a lot of good reviews on premier from Costco, but haven't made it over there to get some. Gotta get in gear, it's right around the corner. My pre op diet starts march 27 th.

I am officially scheduled for April 20th I wish it was March 20th I'm ready to be thin already!!!!
