I've seen topics where members having surgery in the same month have kinda banded together to offer support and encouragement to one another. I think this is a wonderful idea, and I'd like to see if there's anyone having surgery in March that would like to support one another.

I have a tentative date for the second or third week in March. I have UHC through Georgia Pacific and they use BRS for approvals. I don't expect any delays, nor does my surgeon's office, so she saved me a spot, so to speak, lol.

Tonight I have my psyc eval, and Monday is my information class, I have two more visits, 2/5 and 3/5 of my six month supervised diet, and on March 5th when I leave my PCP's office, I'll take my worksheet to the surgeon and we'll submit to insurance. That's where I'm at!

I'd love to talk with others that are looking at the same time frame as me!!

I'm still In the hospital I'm praying ill go home tom. Good luck everyone

Don't worry' date=' Christy.. I'm on day 6 and it get sooo much easier! I have two weeks more to go.. You Can Do it!!!

Thank u!! It does get easier!!! I can't wait until the day finally gets here! 10 more days! Lol

Add me to the March list - my surgery is tomorrow, 3-11-13. Excited & Nervous at the same time, even though I shouldn't be, as I've been through this before (Lap Band 8/2009, taken out on 3/20012, now going to a RNY).

Keep me in your thoughts & prayers please, as prayers do work!

Tammy,

It is way different than a lapband. I'm the same as u. The lapband was a breeze compared to this. Just want u to know the truth.

I was beating myself up trying to stick to 5 - 8oz shakes a day. I finally decided to eat a small amount of high protein meat a day. I also am drinking massive amounts of Green Tea, this is great for cleaning out all of the fatty deposits in the liver and shrinking it prior to surgery. Only 5 more days until the looser bench.

Janel

Hot green tea? Cold green tea??

Can I b on the march surgery group?

I had an RNY march 6
