Hello all! Excited to join this group as I received my date: 12/01/14!! Looks like we'll have a great holiday season!!

Hi!!

I just found out today I'll be having surgery December 2!!!

I still could vomit from excitement lol

I quit smoking cold turkey 7 yrs ago.

It was hard, I was a mega-Bi. The first week is more of a physical withdrawal, then after is all psychological. It's not easy, but it's worth it

Good luck

Congrats ! Excited for you!

I have my surgery Dec 1st. The days are counting fast, I hope I can be back to work two weeks afterwards

Haven't got date yet, but dr said for sure 1 or 2nd week of dec.. just have to quite smoking. I keep saying tomorrow and I'm gonna run outta tomorrow's lol

I have to be out 4-6 weeks. I am an LNA in NH and because of the heavy lifting and constant moving I need to be out longer:(

I should be sleeved in December. Got my approval letter from insurance yesterday. Should talk to Dr next week about going into schedule. When they called me Wednesday to say I was submitted to Insurance, they said the Dr was scheduling into December. So excited to get going!

Finally got my approval from insurance. After finishing all my supervised diet visits and pre-op stuff in October, surgeon finally submitted me last Thursday 11/13/14 and I just heard it was approved today 11/18/14. Seemed like forever, especially considering my surgery date was set for 12/01/14-I was starting to freak out it'd go to medical review and push my date back. *Sigh* what a relief. It's actually happening now!!

I'm scheduled 12/10/14 ????????

@@roells7 mine is the 29th also! I'm so anxious already!

I submit to ins friday. Just had my scope done today all finish, even successfully quit smoking

My last appt is 11/24 for my required 6 mo for my primary care for weight loss maintenance! How long do I have to wait if my doctor sends everything to my surgeon that day? I hope I get my surgery in Dec.

From what I'm seeing, every surgeons office is different. I met someone here from my surgeons office who had everything finalized (ppwk to insurance, surgery date and insurance approval) within a week. But, me-all my ppwk done 10/17. Surgery date set on 10/21...however my ppwk sat there bc there were other surgery dates before me they had to submit first so I JUST got to insurance last Thurs 11/13, approval today 11/18. I hope you can get a December date as well ???? good luck!!
