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!

I am set for January 8th. Although it's been a long time coming I am so worried about doing things right postOP to optimize success. Does anyone else have these fears?

I am scheduled January 8th! In Amarillo, TX, Dr Hodges. Nervous and excited

Thank you for all the feedback. I feel the same way about waiting to tell until I am 100% sure they will understand. Love this app!

Hi all I was just approved and told that I will get a date in January. I am still hoping for a last minute cancellation so I can get my surgery this year for insurance purposes. But either way this is really happening! I can't believe it!

I have been very open about having the surgery as I need my family support to help with my kids and I need my boss and Co-workers help to cover while I am out. I have only one non supporter but I understand where she is coming from and just don't ask her for help.

I am still shocked that this is really happening! I was approved the day after my final visit with the nutritionist. I emailed my case worker to double check that I was really approved! Lol

I look forward to getting to know you all!

How are y'all doing with the pre-op weight loss?

My pre op diet does not start until December 23rd. I have been walking 5 days a week for 30 minutes per my doctors order and I have lost about 8 pounds so far.

I don't have any specific number I have to meet, just the 10 day pre-op diet. Between my initial appointment and my final appointment I can't gain any more than 10 lb or my surgery will be postponed. So far I have gained 3, but I have also cut out all sweets, given up coffee, and started going to the gym 3 days a week.

I am on January 7 with Dr hurtado in tj

I will see you around he will do my sleeve on the 6th but I will get there on the afternoon of the 5th.

Hi everyone. I'm being revised from a band to sleeve Jan 16 in NJ. I go to Drs 12/18 for preop work. I onlty told a few people about the band and only 2 about the sleeve. I lost a grand total of 35 lbs with the band and gained all but 10 back. Can't wait to get started, what a way to begin the year!!
