I am really excited yet nervous about my procedure. I would like to network with someone in the Michigan area that has had or will be having the procedure.

Yes. I did do the 6 months of doctor supervised weight loss. I also needed to have a dietitian evaluation, a psych evaluation, an EKG, and blood work for my insurance to accept me.

Now, since I have been approved I am on to an endoscopy, chest X-ray, and an ultrasound of my gallbladder. My surgery is set for June 11th!

When do you start your pre op diet?

I go this coming weds. April 17th.....Its right around the corner!!

And also very warm and compassionate From the very 1st time i met Dr. Foote at his seminar I felt very comfortable and knew i had to have him do my surgery! Good luck on your journey!!

Good luck all of you guys! I'm just starting, saw the surgeon for the first time yesterday so I'll probably be done in June or August, too many fun summer things to schedule around!

I'm in Kalamazoo, and it seems like nobody else here is from Kzoo. My surgeon will be Dr. Verseman at Borgess .

Okay so I start my two week diet tomorrow and I am super sick today. Like not eating sick, digestive flu sick. But I am still amped about getting me sleeve on May 6th at Spectrum Health in GR. Can't believe its in just two weeks. Besides being sick this is gonna be a great few weeks. I have been getting so much inspiration from this site and Facebook groups. Can't wait to be one of those people with a before and after pic. Yeah
