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 :)

Just got my surgery date today!! January 20th it is!!!!! I am so happy and excited.

Congrats!!! Mine is 1/21????

Got my date today for December 11th! Nervous and excited ! ????

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 ).

I just got my date today! 1/21!

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.

My surgery has changed to 12/2 - got the call this afternoon - eek!

@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!

Oh my goodness! That's awesome. Are you ready?

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?

He doesn't want me to have it over the Holidays if possible because he wants me to enjoy them instead of recovering or being in pre-op. After all this time, I just want it to be over! :D I forgot about the Holiday, so wasn't able to talk to my case manager. I will see if I can get something in for the end of January, at least. He should be home. He might even be home after two weeks, but you never know with these things.

Just think of it. Your nephew will never know the current you. He'll always remember the cool, slender aunt he has so much fun with! It's really exciting.
