The ball is rolling. Surgery scheduled for June 29

So I am smiling tonight, excited, nervous and committed. I had my consultation today. Surgeon agreed that with my history etc, the sleeve is the right choice for me. I chose late June as I get extra time off in the summer. I have all my appointments with surgeon scheduled through June 8's ultra sound. Tomorrow I will call to set up appointments in January with Nutritionist and Psychologist. When we roll around to March, I will need appointments with a pulmonologist, cardiologist and gastro.

I did a lot of hard work to get to this point and I know I have a lot more work to do but this is really happening!

Thank you to everyone who posts. I don't post a lot but I read a lot. You all inspire me.

  • Funny-I found myself thinking, 'that's about 10 months out!' No...it's a little over 6... Where does the time go?

  • Good for you. June might seem like a long ways away but you'll be surprised at how fast the time will pass. Good luck.

  • My surgery is scheduled for June to one more test to do thats a stress test.

That's wonderful that everything is planned and lined up. Doubly fantastic that you've already got a surgery date! I started my process in August 2014 and didn't get my surgery date until June 2015 for July!

The wait was worth it though, as yours will be. Congrats!

Less than three months away until surgery. I have met with psychologist and nutritionist. I got clearance from pulmonology. I met with the cardiologist and gastro and have my echo and stress tests this week. Endoscopy is scheduled for May 3. I have lost 11 pounds so far and want to lost 19 more before surgery or at least come close. I am still off diet soda and doing well with that. It is all starting to feel real to me.
