I am set for 12.8! I was lucky and was not required to have a supervised diet, but I also haven't lost anything, so am disappointed in myself. It's ok thought - the date is set, and I'm excited to get back to the life I enjoy. It's so hard to imagine that 100 pounds can sneak up on a person, but that's exactly what has happened to me, like so many others.

How exciting! I'm a 12/08/2015 also. It's getting close. Such a great gift for the holidays :)

I'm hoping to have my surgery in January, but I'm worried that won't happen. I was originally told that since I see my primary Dr monthly for medication renewals that would most likely could be counted towards the 6 months requirement. But I just learned that it says something about supervised diet for six months. My 3rd visit with the nut is next week. The person that does the authorization said that she wouldn't be putting anything in my insurance until after Thanksgiving. I sure hope that isn't the case, my husband and I are taking our kids to Disney in April and I don't want to be unable to eat normal food. (past all the liquid part post op ).

Congrats on the date. I wish I would get mine!

WOW! A lot of you after this posting got your dates in Jan. Some of you also have birthdays in Jan. So do I. Mine is Jan 24th and I will be 60. Would be nice to have my surgery date for my Birthday gift. A new birth heading into my elderly years.

@half-of-bri, congrats! You must be excited. My surgeon won't begin to talk dates until after I go through their class in December. Makes me want to make puppy dog eyes at my case manager to see if we can get things going!

Thank you! They called me back today and told me they had an opening on 12/2 so I took it! Three weeks from today!

That is so exciting! So soon! Guess you really well have something to be thankful about in November.

My hubby told me last night his business is sending him out of the country in January. Since I don't have a date, he can't guarantee he could be here and wants me to wait until February. I'm so disappointed.

I hope so! I think I am...I just feel frazzled and rushed because I haven't even looked at Protein Drinks, Vitamins, nothing...I know I have plenty of time but I'm kinda freaking out.

That is very true! I'm glad it's early enough in December that I will be able to enjoy Christmas with my family. My sister is due with my nephew on 1/31 and I was freaking out with my date being so close to her due date - this eliminates all of that angst as well :)

I'm sorry about your husband having to go :( Maybe see what they have for dates and then go from there and delay if you have to?

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
