Hi, this is my first post on this board. I am having my surgery July 4th so it can be my Independence Day and I can Celebrate each year after!

Yay TEAM JULY!

Hi there all! I am approved by BCBS as of yesterday 6-9-2015. I went to my Doctor today and we scheduled surgery for 7-7-2015. I am so excited to be taking this journey. Hope and success to each of you!

July 15th.

Already approved by insurance - I'm surprised so many get scheduled for surgery without being approved by insurance yet!

I just made all the rest of my needed appointments today - EKG, chest x-ray, labs, and pre-op physical. 3 weeks prior to surgery I have a pre-op class with a group of people going around the same time as me.

Days are going quick! But I have found myself falling back into bad eating habits- saying to myself-"sure I can have a cup of gaucomole and chips- pretty soon I can't." Driving myself nuts!

Anyone else?

July 10th! It is quickly approaching!

I agree with slipping into bad habits by allowing myself to eat "just one more time" times. That mindset has to change for me!

Good luck everyone!

@@stylewiz35 - my exact time hasn't been scheduled yet - will let you know when I get it.

3 week liquid? Wow, I start my liver shrink meals next week and all liquids the following week. Im gonna try to stay away from friends until surgery day so that i won't be tempted to have what they're having. This week will be the hardest because I will definitely want to get my "last" this or that. Good luck everyone! It will be so worth it!
