    I'm scheduled for April 1! April fools Day? Yikes. Here's hoping my surgeon isn't a prankster and rearranges things so that my arm flies up every time I burp or something.

    Good luck to all of you! I was sleeved almost one year ago on April 16, 2014. Best decision I ever made and easiest weight I've ever lost!!!! Good luck on your own journey! Xoxoxo

  • I'm done! Sleeved with a hernia repair (I had no indication that I needed one). Ever this is going well. Sips..check Broth....check, pain...mostly under control. Thank you Dr. Billing and all

April 21st!

My surgery is scheduled for April 14th, pre- op diet starts April 2nd, all liquids!!!

Hi everyone!! My insurance changed their requirements so I am now only required to do 3 months rather than 6 so I am rushing to complete everything by 3/17. That's the last time I see my surgeon and he will submit to insurance on that day. I've been told, based on that, I will have surgery in April. I REALLY want/need people to go through this with so would love to be part of your little group here.

Hey there ... Let's go through it together!!! I'm currently on a liquid diet and I'm just beside myself, I'm constantly hungry... I don't understand the two week liquid thing, I'm obese but not seriously obese.. 222 as of this morning and I'm 5'6. The nurse doing my endoscopy last week said I don't look big enough to be having this surgery... ???? I'm just agrevated and in a bad mood.... Hungry.. ????????

Some of that response could also be they think or associate this proceedure with extremely large people, 600lbs from many of the shows on TV. For my self I have always felt like the"lost zone"to big for "normal" not big enough for "super size". Not understanding that I would like to live a life food free. …….Eating to live not living to eat……if this was easy every one would be doing it. So cheers to you, we are almost there!

Hi everyone, I just got approved today and surgery is scheduled for April 1st (this is no joke!)!

I don't know if there is a liquid diet phase yet, I meet with my surgeon this Friday.

April 16th here.....can't wait, but scared to death!!! lol :)

@@Ohcali9765 @@CapeMom3 YAY! same day as me.. I was feeling like the only one on the 21st! Congrats on your date. I hope everything goes well for you Ladies.

35 days to go! and 21 days to pre op.

Are you pre op days on the 7th as well?

My preop is the 10th of April.

Just finished my pre-surgical testing. It was not my favorite experience. The barium solution for the Upper GI x-Ray was major yuck.

Getting very close to my April 7th date! Just pre-surgery appointments with my primary and my surgeon.

I start liquid a week from tomorrow.
