December 14th!

We'll be one day apart!!! So exciting!!

January 2016 here! I can not wait!!!

Yay! Im looking for sleever buddies!

I'm 21st December 5weeks away!! Can't wait!!

Lol wow, that is close when you say it like that! I'm scheduled for 12/16/15, which is the soonest they could get me in. Work picks up big time at the first of the year. It's a desk job, so I should be ready to jump in again before the crazy work gets out of control.

I'm not looking forward to the pre-op diet, but then again I sort of am.... Let's get this going!

Congratulations @@Halfagain I did like u choose a date work will be slow

I got all my tests in. The stress test was a breeze and I never ever walk walk ever! I once had that stress test where they shoot some thing in you and you just sit there. I passed out and threw up. Honestly,if you have a choice do the treadmill.

I've done all the other tests now and had the nutrition class. I'm not waiting on insurance. I'm waiting for my assistant(I'm a teacher) to come back from her knee surgery. I just cannot leave 44 behavior disordered students with two new people. That would be horrible for them and the substitutes. So,,, I just figured Jan. I go for my weigh in Dec 14th and set the date.I been doing low carb. and know I have lost.

My friend is getting her sleeve done December 1st. I just want to do this right! I'm glad to be part of this site.

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.

That is SO exciting! I can't wait to be an awesome, energetic Auntie!

I'm sure everything will work out with the timing of your surgery - I know it's hard to wait, it's been exactly 5 years since my VSG journey began. I began research in Dec of 2010 and was 10 days away from having surgery in August of 2012 when the doc discovered I had blood clots in my leg and both lungs and I had to cancel my surgery. I'm just now well enough to go through with it. It sure has been a long time coming but it will be so worth it!

Oh wow Brianna,

That's what I call dedication. How did they find those clots?

Congratulations @@perbain glad you've completed all the steps ☺☺

i am new to the group just started my pre op appts but im hoping for late december to have my surgery- had my nutrition visit the other day and psych eval today. Lab work friday-
