May 10, 201412 yr I'm in NC. Congrats on your date!!! I have 4/6 supervised diet visits on the 28th of this month so I'm hoping for an August/September date.
May 10, 201412 yr Author DonaiA- best wishes on a speedy approval for your surgery. I was lucky and didn't have to go through the supervised diet. I can't believe my sleeve is just a month away!
May 10, 201412 yr Overall it has been good. I have had a couple.. Only a couple of I wish I hadn't did this.. That's because my mind wanted to eat , eat , eat... However I'm not even hungry.. It's battling the mind...I wouldn't change a thing.. I have lost 22lbs..
May 13, 201412 yr I live an hour from Raleigh and I am on track to get sleeved the last week in July! I am so excited!
May 13, 201412 yr Hi, I am also from NC and I have my first appointment with the surgeon on Monday the 19th. I am hoping that I won't have to have a long supervised diet, but I keep telling myself that even if it is six months from now, that is better late than never!

May 14, 201412 yr Dr David Voellinger, what about you? I'm going through SE Bariatrics too but Dr. Kolosch(sp) is doing my sleeve.
May 14, 201412 yr Author I've heard nothing but positive feedback for both. I believe we are in good hands:)
May 15, 201412 yr Hello everyone! I'm in the Raleigh area and just had my consult yesterday at Bariatric Surgeons of NC (in Cary). Looks like I have a 6 month weight check/supervision required by insurance so my last check will be oct 21st. I imagine surgery sometime in November. I was expecting a 3 months supervised diet but turned out to be 6, not too bad though bc I'm still trying to get my hubby on board ????
May 15, 201412 yr @@DeeSleeved427, I have my consult on Monday, and I believe that my insurance also requires a 6 month weigh in and supervised diet. I live about 1.5 hours south of Raleigh. Our surgeries will probably be around the same time. Six months seems so close but still some how far away... wishing you the best of luck!
My surgery is June 9th, so excited
