I got my date (October 15th) and my insurance approval. I'm excited and nervous. Who else is being sleeved in October?

Will you be going to the support group meetings?

I tried but got the date wrong. I work out of state a lot so it's hard for me to be available mid week. The Dr. Said it would be ok since he saw i did try to make it to at least one. I also showed him I'm a part of several online support groups!

Oct 16th for me as well!!

16th here too!!! On the countdown. The next couple weeks will just fly for me!!!

Tomorrow is the start of my liquid diet. I will be on it for 2 weeks. I'm nervous. Any advice from someone that has been on the liquid diet already?

I've been to one meeting. I wasn't impressed. Other than that my overall experience has been great. Are you doing the optifast diet?

I have to share...I'm waiting on a flight i have for a quick business trip...plane for a few hours. I normally pay for the extra legroom and especially hip room! I have this wonder in my mind...will I need the same space (legroom maybe) on my next business trip next year!?!? My sleeve story starts now..and surgery on the Oct21... It's definitely some of the small things that continue to inspire me!!!

No you will not need the .extra room! Remember when you didn't weigh what you way now and how you were comfortable in the airplane seat? Plus, seats are smaller than before. My sleeve is on Oct. 22. You brought up a great inspiration.

I am October 1 with Dr Michael Snyder in Denver, CO. I am having a revision from band (Dec 2010 - lost 85 pounds before it slipped and still have about 50 to go). I am starting my 48 hour liquid diet today and starting to get nervous too. I am a Federal employee and the possibility of a Govt shutdown isn't helping with the stress level either. I know this is the right decision for me and am looking forward to chatting with all of you on the post op side.
