I've finally gone through all my clearances and I get my date September 18th. From what they said they expect it to be the week of October 18th. I'm soooooo anxious at this point. I started at 250, and am now 237. Any October buddies out there? :-)

Sacramento Gal here, October 1st, broken leg & bariatric surgery....figured already out with leg so take advantage of timing.

That's crazy that you weren't given any instruction on weight loss b4 surgery. The weight loss b4 helps shrinks your liver to speed up recovery, and surgery time. Make sure to explore this forum, lots of ppl have great ways of getting prepared..Good Luck!

Just scheduled for October 15th!!!! SO grateful!!!!

October 18th for me!! Nervous and Excited....

I'm super excited to be joining everybody here. I started this journey on July 19th and my surgery to get sleeved will be on October 16th. So just under 3 months and that's with meeting all the requirements for my insurance which is Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield. Tomorrow morning I am starting on low carb low fat and then on October 1st I have to start with replacing two of my meals with the liquid Protein. I'm excited to travel this journey with everybody here and hopefully be a support group to one another. My surgeon is Dr Jawad in Orlando.

I should add that my current weight is between 285-290 and I'm hoping to get that to 270-275 by surgery date.

Just scheduled for Oct. 2!!!! So excited!!!
