Hi all so excited. I will be sleeved on july 22. This has been about ten years coming so I am so ready. I have to start drinking three shakes a day instead of the two and a meal because my liver has not shrunk enough. I have lost forty pounds in under a month on the diet. Thanks to all of you on here, you keep me inspired.

Congrats! I'm 2 days behind you, July 24 is my date. I'm already wishing I would have done this years ago.

I have been fighting insurance for ten years and since obama care I actually got to switch insurance and now have coverage.

I feel like I will actually get to live life for once instead of being a spectator.

_{I'm also scheduled for July on the 8th. Started my journey 4 years ago and am very nervous but excited to have this surgery.}

Hooray! Obamacare! So glad for you!

Obamacare has not been so good to me but if it's working for you, more power to you. Congratulations on your date. You are going to love this. i waited 10 years to have surgery but I'm sort of glad I did because the sleeve wasn't available when I first started looking at this, I love my sleeve and my new life style. Good luck everyone.

I'm scheduled for 07/24 but the insurance has requested more info from my doctor....hopefully all goes well....I'm keeping my fingers, toes and legs crossed!! Where are u located? I'm in NYC and I'm getting sleeved at NYU.

I hope your insurance issues are cleared up quickly! I'm located near Harrisburg, Pa and that is where I'm getting surgery. I'm so excited for all of us, can't wait to start living again

Thanks!! I'm with you, I can't wait to start living again!! Here's to living again!!

Congratulations! I am actually the day before you, July 21! I am super excited so I can imagine that you are as well. My doctor didn't ask me to do a diet pre-surgery.
