I am so excited that my insurance approved me and I'm set for June 11th. However I'm freaking out a little bit because now it's like HOLY CRAP it's REALLY HAPPENING!

Any other June Sleevers around? Any words of encouragement or advice?

I am scheduled for June 23. I am scared. My intellect knows this is a good choice, but my emotions are not there. I can't wait to hear about your experience. You will do great!!

June 25th is my official date for now...if feels like I might have a few more hurdles due to needing a Upper GI and being self pay...everyone wants the money upfront before I even get an apt and extra fees that I hadn't planned for are appearing I'm hoping everything works out and I'll be sleeved on schedule!!!

Inferior vena cava (IVC) filters are placed in patients who have a history of or are at risk of developing blood clots in the legs, including patients: diagnosed with deep vein thrombosis (DVT). with pulmonary embolus.

Interesting. I have a history of blood clots and was told I'd go on lovenox afterwards, but no IVC thingy. I might call the surgeon and ask...

Hi, I had mine done in June 3rd 2015!!

I am now a Looser (in the most happy and positive ways)!

I am still not 100% but improving each day and am so excited (and fearful) of the journey to come!

Praying everything works out for you!

I am scheduled for June 20th in Mexico. I started my pre-op diet a few days ago and so far so good, but I'm dreading the clear liquid stage. I'm excited but also a little nervous. Glad to see so many others going through this process around the same time as I am.

@@Daisy Girl, and @@hopefulmom76, yeah!!! I'm scheduled for June 12 too!!! Nervous, excited, and wondering if I can get everything done in my to do list before surgery!!! That includes, my house cleaned, my car worked on in the next four days!

June 23rd for me too, started pre op diet today

I am on June 15, excited and I am on day 6 of my restricted diet. Now bad so far. Glad I can still eat raw carrots, gives me something to crunch! I go on liquids only the day before, but doesn't have to be clear. I have lost 23 lbs through my 3 month diet and up till now. I have told my parents who were not happy, I have posted it on my Facebook page and have told the four families that I watch their kiddos. I didn't tell my in-laws, but my hubby did. I DONT LIKE THEM AND THEY STRESS ME OUR. So I have not even been around them since starting my journey in January. I am trying to enjoy the transformation and not hear any negative comments from people who are suppose to be supporting me through this journey. I wish you good luck and see you on the losers bench!!!

My date is June 19th in TJ with Dr Garcia. Sooooo excited, but so nervous about flights, money and everything coming together. Started my pre-op diet of shakes with one meal per day a couple days ago. My insurance failed to approve me last week, but I haven't told any of my colleagues that. We are all nurses and surgical techs and surgeons and I don't want to hear their naysaying about going to Mexico.

@@Memilie80 looks like we'll be in TJ at the same time. I am flying in on the 19th and I will be getting sleeved by Dr. Lopez on the 20th.

June 18th here!!! TJ here I come! (that's if I survive this pre-op diet! ????

Less than two days! I'm excited.... but a little bit of nerves are starting to kick in as well. I stood and looked in the mirror for a long time this morning... No fat covered body, I will not miss you because I can see the person who is just itching to get out.... Here I come!

June 16 is just around the corner.
