I'm hoping for a December date. I'm actually on track for November but want till wait until after finals (December 10th) My file goes to the insurance on October 28th. I'm hoping that will be enough time for it to come back and then book a date. Does everyone already have their dates already?

There are well known facts on the internet these days that may help you make your scheduling decision:

1.) December Sleevers experience .015% less post op hair loss than those sleeved in November. (Weird but true apparently.)

2.) Sleeves performed in November could result in uncontrollable flatulence in 99.98%, or less, of the recipients. (I've read that it has something to do with the tides and moon phases affect on the formation of the pouch during that month.)

3.) December Sleevers have been scientifically proven to be able to "Trust a Fart" 2.43% more than a November Sleever. (They are more patient and less likely to take a chance according to the research performed.)

4.) December Sleevers "Rule"....... while November Sleevers, may in fact, "Drool". (Although this is still a theory, some feel it is soon to be definitively proven to be true.)

5.) December Sleevers may be a tad envious of their November brothers and sisters and are 100% likely to fabricate statistics based on said envy.

I'm in Florida too! :)

I'm in the panhandle, how about you?

I'm down in southwest Florida, in the fort myers area.

I don't have a date yet, but it's looking like my surgery will be in the beginning of December. My last appt with the nut is on the 22nd and as soon as her note hits the system they'll be submitting to insurance. My program coordinator said she'll have everything ready so all she'll have to do is print off the nut note and get all the info faxed to insurance. She said it usually takes 2-3 weeks for a determination and then surgery is 2-3 weeks later.

LMAO. ????

Just left the surgeon's office with a Dec. 8 surgery date! Just one preop appt for surgery and a 2 week preop diet to go. Things are getting real!

My date is December 2nd.

My date is December 22nd.

Mine too! Hooray for sleeve date buddies! :)

I just joined yesteday as well. My date is Dec 1st and it seems so far away. I know it will be he before I know it. By then I will have been on liquids for 4 months. I really miss food but I'm trying to pin as many new recipes as possible so that when the time comes I can make some healthy meals.

Dec 3rd here! When I got the call this morning to schedule I thought I was going to vomit! Feels real now!

Ok so I have a question for your December people. ..were your doctor's booked up or what is the reason it's two months out...I was approved in Sept but can't discuss surgery date til January. ..I'm so frustrated
