Anyone looking at an August surgery date?

  • Popular Post

My last appointment for my supervised weight loss will be at the end of July so I'm looking at a sleeve date in August and would love to find some others that will be sleeved around that time as well. I think it would be awesome to keep track of each other via Facebook and have a mini support group!

I was told yesterday the middle of August is probably a realistic time.

I'm hoping to get surgery mid-late August. Should be done with all of my checklist items on July 20th and then have to do the 2 week liquid diet. Fingers crossed!

If anyone wants to join me in an online video group chat tomorrow 8-9pm London time then please PM me and I'll give you the link. You can either input the link into your Web browser or download the app appear.in onto your mobile phone. I'd like to join with you to share the hopes, and concerns about our August journeys.

I was finally approved in May but due to events beyond my control I had to wait to schedule my surgery. I finally was able to schedule it for August 15th and I can't wait!! I haven't gained since my last visit in April so that's a win for me! I am going to get back in the gym hard this month to get to the goal weight I've set for myself before surgery. Are there any sleepers in the St. Louis area?

My last appointment is July 26th so I am hoping for late August.

I have a tentative date of August 3. My MD wanted to schedule me for 7/18, but I can't be off work this month. I hope they confirm that date this week. I am very excited, but a little scared as well.

@BAMichele..I hope they get you date confirmed as well. I'm a little nervous as well. I have a good friend who had the surgery back in March and said it was the BEST decision she's ever made. That gives my courage to push forward. Stay strong! This group is here for encouragement and information to help us get through this together!

Hi everybody!

My name is Laura I am from Albany, NY

I’m scheduled to have surgery August 3rd! I am going with the sleeve. I have been experiencing lots of anxiety. I find myself reading everything I can about pre/post-surgery. I’m also having strange surgery dreams. LOL! I never had any operations or procedures before I decided to have the surgery. I know everyone’s experience is different. I still have to meet with the cardiologist next week and after that just my H&P with the doctor. I am looking forward to meeting people on here so I don’t feel so alone in this process. Thanks everyone for letting me vent!

So funny...I too am having dreams about surgery. I had one last night that I was in a lot of pain and I had big holes in my stomach. I woke up and was sleeping on my stomach (which usually causes me pain anyway.) Good to meet you too. My surgery date is 8/5. Nervous isn't the word for what I'm going through. Major anxiety is close.
