finally after all that running around I got a date. Im scheduled for January 20th, 2014 with Dr Koshy at St Lukes Hospital. Thats in NY. I was expecting a sooner date but he will be on vacation on December.

I am so glad to finally have my date. what about you guys? anyone else has a date for January?

Share it!

BellaHugz - where in Ca are you? I'm in SD. My date is 1/21.

I was told not to gain any more than 10 lb.

I have my gastric sleeve on January 27th with Dr. Watkins in Cincinnati. I know it sounds funny to say I'm looking forward to something involving surgery, but I really am!! Can't wait to use this powerful tool to get this weight off and get healthier again!!!!

Me too! I am very excited to transform

Getting excited go to my education class tomorrow and then sleeved on Friday.

I'm on the 21st with Dr Olsen in Nashville, what's up 2014!!!

One more week for me! Halfway through the liquid diet, I've lost 6 pounds. And let's say it's not really going too well....but I'm excited about this next week!! Jan 6 at 9 am!!!!! Happy new year to everyone

We are the same day. It's beyond hard. But I'm going to hang in there. I fell off on day three but I'm going strong now.

For those of us that have had a hard time on pre-op - are you telling your surgeon?

Are you following pre op to a T otherwise or making substitutions? I read a very low carb diet will shrink the liver.

January 27th here!!! Woot woot!!!!

I'm on day 1 of pre-op diet. I have a headache, I think from carb withdrawal. Other than that, it's not as bad a I feared. I will follow to a T. It is a safety issue. A smaller liver equates to a safer surgery.

I am 40 pounds over ideal weight and I am supposed have this preop and I am failing every day. My surgery is Jan 8
