I couldn't find a June Sleevers forum. If there is one already please direct me!

Well anyway, I'm glad excited that I finally got a date, June 5th. I really wanted it to be sometime during the end of May but that didn't happen. My family will be going out of town, to Disney to be specific, a few days after my surgery because my cousin from Mexico will be making his fist trip here. I'm so sad I won't be joining them but my parents keep telling me I need to look at the bigger picture, or should I say smaller. Haha. I have my preop appointment May 27th. I'm curious as to what kind of diet he will put me on! I'm just excited to get this going! So who else has a June Date? Who is hoping for a June Date? Are you ready yet? Nervous? Excited?

I'm a self pay. My company's insurance does not have an "obesity rider" which allows for approval of the procedure for insurance purposes....early stage company with lots and lots of healthy people, so they felt they didn't need to pay for the rider. With self pay, the wheels do move faster, which I really appreciate. I'm maxing out BLIS insurance so all the various complications are covered for the max period possible. Having spent that money and my luck, all will go swimmingly. That's what I'm hoping!

Congrats to all June sleevers! Nice to meet you and share the journey!

My sleeve surgery is scheduled for June 4th. I'm super excited, but also scared. I will be starting my pre-op protein shakes later this week.

Hey, I heard that your taste buds change after surgery so don't buy a lot of protein shakes... You my start to dislike what you currently like.

Hi June sleevers! What is everyone most excited about today?

Hi June sleevers! What is everyone most excited about today?

I'm excited to be a day closer to surgery!!

I am scheduled for 6/23!

Me too!!!!!!

I go for my pre-op EGD tomorrow, it's required just to make sure there's no surprises whenever I go for the surgery. Tomorrow marks the exact two week mark until this happens!!!! It's getting so real!!

Hi! I have been surfing the site for a good month now and i find this all educational. I finally have data as well. My surgery will take place on June 17. I have a scheduled Nutritional meeting on June 6th. I hope by then i have an idea what diets i will be going on prior to the surgery. I am excited!

Hi June sleevers! What is everyone most excited about today?

I'm excited that I'm one day closer to my surgery date.

Attending my first support group meeting tonight. Can't believe how fast my surgery date is coming!

I am scheduled for june 20th

Hello,

I have not received my date yet but I just found out that they have submitted to the inusrance already and are waiting for the approval. I have anthem blue cross, i heard the approval process is easy with them . She said that my preop will be scheduled as soon as they get that approval and a week after that preop appt would be the surgery. so it looks like the begining to mid june for me. I am getting nervous, scared and anxious.

Seems June 4th is a popular date! I'm having my sleeve done on this day as well. Started my two week pre-op diet on day 2. It's hasn't been that hard. 4shakes a day with up to 5 additional items like sf jello, pudding, soup and veggies. I realize just how much head hunger I really have! I am slightly nervous, but more excited on this journey for a healthy mind and Body! And it won't be bad to look as great as you feel! This is a very exciting time and I'm so ready to get it going!

I'm not having trouble with the diet during the day BUT when I get home from work is when the hunger sets in.... A friend of mine who went through the pre op process with me had her surgery on April 18, and she has lost a total of 47 pounds...which includes her pre op weight loss. Pretty amazing huh?

Wow! That is insane! Amazing! Have you had your surgery yet? Are you drinking enough water. I know I struggle with getting all my water.
