I'm scheduled to get my sleeve in July. Anyone else getting theirs in July too? I'm so nervous.

Hi everyone! Originally I'd been posting on the June thread but that's obviously not happening so here I am crossing my fingers for a July date. I've completed everything for my program and I'm just waiting for insurance approval and my date now. I met with my surgeon on June 19th and was told my paperwork was going to insurance that afternoon and it would take 2-3 days for approval and then I'd get my call. Well, today when I still hadn't heard anything I decided to call my insurance company just to check the status of things. They said they hadn't received anything from my surgeon yet! Beyond frustrating. So I called my surgeon's office and they told me I was on the top of the pile and would be the next to be sent off. Oh, how convenient. So now I wait.

The good news is I have no pre-op diet. I did have to lose 10% of my excess body weight to qualify for surgery, which was 16 pounds, and they consider that my pre-op diet. I've lost 27 pounds so far and I'll just keep on trucking until surgery.

Getting sleeved July 8th nerves are so bad wish everybody luck

July 28th! My pre-op diet starts on July 17th!

I totally found my new favorite pre-op food today: 30 dollar snowcone machine, sugar free zero calorie cherry or blue raspberry syrup, and a handful of ice cubes. Totally hits that dessert craving I've been having!

I am getting my sleeve on July 10, 2015. So far I have not experienced any nervousness. Excited to be this close. It has been a journey.

I was thinking about getting one myself for that same reason.

Still scheduled to start my pre-op diet on the 6th. Surgery is scheduled for the 21. While insurance has approved it, the surgeon has yet to sign off on it. Fingers crossed that it'll remain the 21.

Go for it! If you sign up for the email list for bed bath and beyond, they will send you a 20% coupon via email the next day, and you can save yourself a little extra! Amazon also has a alot more sugar free zero calorie flavors if you wanted to give it a try.
