I got my date - August 5th - 8:00am. I'm so excited now that it's finally scheduled. Still some tests to do but the time off is scheduled with the employer and short-term medical leave applied for. Family flying in to take me there and stay with me for a while after. It's all coming together.

Anyone else in August?

Congrats! Very happy for you and know that you are very excited and anxious to get started. Wishing you much success!

Congrats!! August 25th for me!! It will be here before we know it!!

Me Aug 12 8am optifast for 30days

Hi i'm scheduled in for surgery on 10th august. My surgeon said that i only have to do a 2 week low fat diet pre op, feel a bit mixed about it to be honest, bit like im cheating, when most ppl say they usually have to do a liquid diet. I was gearing myself up to do it to be honest, and asked him if my liver really will shrink enough for it to be safe enough for surgery, his reponse was absolutley. So i think im going to follow what he says however im going to swap 1 meal a day with a protein shake. It cant hurt can it really and i need to get used to drinking them for after the op anyway. Anyway a big GOOD LUCK coming your way for all the august sleevers including myself. Lol .and also to everyone else yet to be sleeved. Exciting times !!!

Im scheduled on Aug 24!! We are almost there!!

I'm scheduled Aug 13th and very excited!

I'm also August 13th. Can't wait to get this done. Next summer will be awesome. This is my last fat summer. There is so much I want to do. Good luck everyone.

I'm also August 5th. Very nervous, but excited

My date is scheduled for RNY on August 4th and as thrilled as I am I can't help but feel nervous. I keep changing my mind between the sleeve and the bypass all day long for two reasons. I'm afraid of Reactive hypoglycemia as a possible RNY side effect and not loosing enough weight with the sleeve. I know I'll be fine and that it's probably cold feet. Overall I am excited and thrilled that it's a bit over a month away.

I'm Aug 12th! I'm the same just a two week diet before, I go to my pre-op appointment next month and I plan on asking if there is a liquid diet beforehand at all because I also found it a little odd.

I am August 12th also

August 10th for me! I find myself thinking about my new self contanstly. Each time i can't do something easily or take my medicine or use my cpap at night I just feel an overwhelming hope of being able to be rid of them. July 16th is preop boot camp. July 27th full liquid diet starts. I will do what I gotta do!!!
