I got the call today, my surgery is set for June 8. I go tomorrow to do a follow up with the nurse and other appointments are already set. My sister-in-law has her initial appointment tomorrow so it's nice to have her to go through this with...plus she's wears a smaller size than me and already told me I get her clothes when she loses weight! That's about 2 sizes away. Luckily I do have some summer clothes already so this is PERFECT timing!

anyone else having it done in June?

June 29!

June 23rd. excited, anxious and scared. Good luck everyone

My date is June 22nd. I'm nervous but also excited. The pre-op liquid diet has been hard but I finally have it under control. I started at 264 and am down to 240. I hope to lose a little more before the surgery since my doctor said he sees better outcomes with more weight loss before the surgery.

I don't have the best support at home so these forums are a life saver!

Mine is June 27th, one week! I'm so excited!!!

This is the place! Sounds like you are off to a great start!

You might want to find someone in your circle that you can talk to In person. It helps even more!

Good luck with surgery!

Thanks for the good wishes! Today is the big day. Surgery scheduled at 2:10. May need a hiatal hernia repair, too. Hoping I can still do the single incision procedure.

In a way I kind of wished for a hernia and gull bladder removal during surgery. Get all done in one shot. No suck luck. Other than my weight and some body aches because of my weight I am healthy.

Best of luck. Take it slow the first few days. Hopefully you bounce back quickly.

Just got my surgery time for next Monday June 27th at 10:15 AM :-) yeahhhhh !!!! Stomach knows something's about to go down.. been doing weird noises for the past two days. :-)

Had surgery yesterday at 4pm, a couple hours late. Because of the hiatal hernia I couldn't do the single incision. Feeling ok and walked for the first time at 10pm. Looking forward to drinking water and seeing my family today.

I'm so upset right now... My surgeon cancelled my surgery because he is going to be out of the country and don't know if he will be back by the 29th. So I had to stop my 10 day liquid diet and wait for my new date. really really sucks

My sleeve's tomorrow at 11. Can't wait to be done.

Oh, Tonya2BFit, I'm so sorry to hear that! Very frustrating.

What a bummer. I am sorry to hear this. At least you got some warning. Take some time to process and get mad. Then.... You get up and face it. You've come this far and have been faced with a challenge. Look at it as preparing for your new life. And you will lose even more weight before surgery which is a bonus.

Good luck to you!
