July 27, 20169 yr Popular Post Hi all. I am 9/19/16. Anxious and ready. I am 48 year old and have battled pcos since my mid 20's. Sw 276 Cw 269 (and not budging) Goal. To eliminate all diabetes meds and improve my health. And of course want to lose some weight along the way. My husband is getting sleeved too. He hasn't got his date yet but he is hoping for November. Still waiting for the final approval from Cigna. But they set my date. Cigna not easy even with the uncontrolled diabetes. High blood pressure. Severe sleep apnea and pcos. First letter of denial because not medically necessity? Crazy! I KNOW it will get approved. Glad to see some September sleepers out there. Live in and love this site. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
July 28, 20169 yr As long as I have no problems with my insurance I am supposed to get a September date. My last pre-surgery appointment will be August 8th. Then it is just a matter of getting the paperwork done. All of my testing is finished and hopefully this will be a smooth process.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using the BariatricPal App Definitely not looking forward to the liquid diet. I have to do two weeks before (and two weeks after, obviously)
July 29, 20169 yr Omg 2 weeks before. Luckily since I have a lower bmi I only have to do a week. But I week falls on my b day We can make it through though Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using the BariatricPal App
July 29, 20169 yr Author @@cheneisew @finding_onederland it's weird because my surgeon didn't give me a full liquid diet, (I'm not complaining) LOL but I will have two weeks of 2 small meals with one Meal Replacement shake, and then all liquids 48 hours before. Are you guys getting nervous? I go from crazy excitement to a ball of nerves!
July 29, 20169 yr Hi. I start my liquid pre op diet 9/4. 5 shakes a day and one fruit one veg and one starch (from a list). And then of course the 2 weeks after. Very nervous about pre op. But I am so excited and anxious at the same time too. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
July 29, 20169 yr Popular Post That is so great ! I am a l also having mine done on the 14th of Sept, which is also my birthday. So excited and nervous at the same time. Sent from my KFMEWI using the BariatricPal App
July 29, 20169 yr Popular Post I've been postponed twice, my "new" date is 9/19. I'm probably the only freak on the planet super excited about starting the liquid diet since I've had my hopes dashed and had to rework my life around the changing dates. Bring on 9/19 and a new way of life!
July 29, 20169 yr Got my surgery date, September 28, 2016! I've been reading these boards for a few months now as I walk this journey, you all made me feel less anxious and more determined to go the distance. Thank you for that! My date is 9/28 and there will be no liquid weeks b4. My bmi is under 40 (not by much)so I guess that's good. I'm super excited and slightly anxious but happy to be healthier soon. I was told that a single belly button incision is not possible so I will have multiple incisions. Apparently my belly button is too low (although I prefer to think of it as my breasts are too high.) Anyone ever been told this? Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App
