[mercmerc 144]

Hey ya'll so I got approved for surgery May 17th (Thursday) and i'm still waiting on a surgery date? I FEEL LIKE I'VE BEEN WAITING for ever!! How long did it take for you to get a surgery date after approval?? Why does it take so long?

That's plenty long enough to wait. Give them a call! You've been abundantly patient!

I have everyday! They just keep saying that "there's still waiting on finding a day to schedule" or that they don't have a date locked in :(

Makes you feel like the whole world 🌏 takes a vacation right when you're requiring something! Keep the faith and don't let their in-attention make you sad!💦

@mercmercn if you are starting your PreSurgery liquid diet on the 31st? Look at a Estimated Date of Surgery: June 14th. That is unless you have a Doctor who does 1 week(June7th) or 3 weeks( June 21st) now usually to 3 or 4 week are reserved for BMI >55 to shrink,⬇their fatty,liver. Now unless you're using the picture that came with new wallets you don't have That Problem.
So I would say it's a lead pipe cinch,it will be a lot less than a month away.

I'd have to have someone stand on the roof to get my head at an angle that didn't show my double-chin! Honestly, from your avatar, I wouldn't guess you weighed more than 130!

My. current pictures, well remember our geography books, on the page that says " the pride of Russia is their strong women" there is my twin standing next to a large tractor, smiling. The only way you can distinguish between the two in size is the tractor doesn't have a headscarf on! My dream is to be standing next to a shovel or pitchfork, something not so wide across! And I WILL DO IT!🙆
