I'm set for February 11th in dallas and dr. Frenzel is my doctor!!!

I just got a call and am moving up to January 27th... I preop Monday. This is getting real.

I guess I should get on the ball and decide which protein shakes I'm using.....eek!

QUESTION: For those of you who got your surgery date, WHEN did you get it? I'm asking because I have to do a six month program for my doctor's office-not necessarily for my insurance co and I'm wondering when you actually learn of your surgery date?? I'm in month 5 of 6 and go on January 22nd for my surgery class, meeting with a doctor, an ultrasound and more labs. After that my psych eval is January 27th. I should be learning of my date soon right?

I didn't get my date until everything was completed. Diet, psych, egd, and Drs clearance were all completed before I got a date. I am using isoprene rtd and powder.

I have completed all of the requirements including submitting my lab work and medical clearance letter from my pcp. I go for my 6th and last weigh-in on the 21st of this month. I haven't received my surgery date yet either. I was told by my nut last month that I will probably be sleeve around mid-February but; I am hoping it will be before then.

I have completed will have completed my 3 month prep program as of 1/7, labs, psyh eval, letter of necessity, paperwork, ect. On 12/22 doc office called and told me surgery would be on 2/18 all o need is to get medical clearance from my primary doc by 1/21 and I'm all set! I hope this response helps!

I am a cash pay so I only had to do my EDG and then I set my date from there!

Yes, I had to get everything done before they would schedule. They had to have results from all tests and medical clearance first. I got my date the second they received all the results.

I hope to be sleeved in February. I've completed everything, but I have to wait until Jan. 20 to have my paperwork submitted to the insurance company. Hopefully that will only take 5-10 days and then get my surgery date if all goes well with the insurance approval process.

In one month!!! ONE MONTH!!!! I am crying tears of joy!!!

I am scheduled for February 11th in New Jersey!!!

Feb 11 is my 6th month appointment and I have all of my other requirements fulfilled. I have my preop apt scheduled for Jan 29th. So technically I could go anytime after Feb 11th. However I have been told that I won't know when that is going to be until shortly after my preop. Good luck! @@KatieD6982

I'm schedule for February 9th in Maine. It's been a long process but I'm super excited for this surgery!!!

I need to post my before pictures still!

My absolute favorite protein shake so far is "Click" decaf mocha and I mix it with 8oz of milk and 4 oz of water. SOOOOO good. Seriously good. I drink it for breakfast every morning!!

Feb 9th, I'm ready for it to get here!!! =)

I had my final insurance weigh in and was down SIX pounds! So my packet is off for approval. My date is Feb 4th in Pittsburgh. Tomorrow I go to the vampire for preop blood work.
