I too will be in June or July for surgery. Where are you from? I am in Las Vegas.

I will be Late June or sometime in July. I'm from Wilmington, Delaware. The bonus about having a summer surgery is that I'll be able to get out and walk while the weather is nice.

That's great! Here it gets to about 110 degrees and miserable in the summer. But swimming is nice. I wonder how soon after surgery we can swim. I can walk in the mall maybe lol

Hello there,

I have just recently signed up to this site. I love reading the topics until finally I have decided to register to this discussion group. So glad to have found it!

My surgery date is 1st of July 2014.

I'm feeling a bit nervous and excited at this stage.

I'm from Sydney, NSW.

Yay another July sleever! I don't feel all alone anymore and somehow it feels like it's a lot closer to surgery time now that people are starting to say they are in July too!

Any preparations you all have been doing so far? I just kept thinking that my surgery will be in a few months time but I haven't been really doing anything yet in preparation for the surgery. Any special diet that you have already started? Exercise? I haven't started anything yet and I'm just too scared I may not be able to comply with the required diet 2 weeks pre-op. Yikes!

July 9th is my date... NY here!!!

I don't have an exact date yet but my 6 months will be up in July! They say final approval from insurance takes no longer than 2 wks from the last visit then surgery is scheduled. I've been drinking tons of Water. Cut out coffee. Quit smoking last October. But my bmi is right on 40 so I can't really diet too much. After I get the final approval and surgery date I plan on dieting for those two weeks. Like drinking Protein drinks and eating lean meats. They said I was too small for a pre op diet but I want to kind of be used to small meals and drinking a lot. Until then im trying to make better choices when there's an option.

July 9th is my date... NY here!!!

Yayyyy. I won't have a date for a little while yet. Congrats!

I got my date today my surgery is July 8th so i have already been eating healthier to help after my surgery.

Rescheduled for July 22... Can't get here soon enough I am ready for a change

Me too! My friend at work had hers done 3 months ago and I feel so left behind!

My date is July 9th and time is crawling by. I cancelled my April 21st but that crept up so quick bc I had tests to go for and dr appts left and right. The waiting is killing me and makes me want to eat!

I have my medical clearance appointment on June 20th. When I meet with the surgeon, then I'll receive a surgery date. I'm so nervous and excited all at the same time. The pre-op requirement stuff went by so fast.

Hello everyone! I'm from Sydney. My surgery date is on the 1st of July. I will be having my 2nd appointment on Monday, 16th of June. Haven't actually started eating healthy. I'm a bit nervous that I may not be able to do the pre-op diet but I gotta be positive that I can do it.

I got insurance approval today! My surgery is scheduled for July 29th.
