Hey all!! My surgery was originally scheduled for June 18th, but due to a variety of reasons I had to delay until August. My new date is ..

August 23rd!!!

Are there any surgery twins out there? Any other August sleevers? I would love a support system, because my real life support system is tiny, and I’m starting to freak out and second guess every decision I’ve made. Let’s form a support network!

Joining! My surgery date will be August 6th. In 47 days. I'm nervous yet excited, the last 6 months flew by.

I am going on vacation July 15th so I waited until vacation is over. They are suppose to call me when the doctor gets his August schedule. My surgery will be in August. I’m so ready.

I wish i could say timw was flying for me. It is dragging. I am in my 6th month. Can submit to insurance july 16.

Friday August 31st for me. See the nutritionist on August 8th. Not sure if I'll be put on the two week pre op diet then, as my surgeon hasnt said anything about wanting me to. Im in Australia, so its winter here. My start weight is 290lbs and lm 165cm tall.

Planning on spending the next 10 weeks devouring the forum to learn as much as possible and starting the lifestyle changes. More protein less carbs, water, exercise - lve set up the treadmill in my lounge room. I want to be 8 - 10kg down by surgery day.

I’m feeling the same way!! Some days I wish the surgery was tomorrow. Some days I am second guessing it.

I’m going on vacation July 12th! Part of reason I switched from the June surgery date. I’m glad that you’re feeling ready! That’s great!!!

That’s great that you are so motivated!! I’m supposed to lose 10 pounds before surgery, but so far I have gained 7 ?. I’m going to start drinking more shakes in place of meals in July. Maybe even start the preop early (I have to do 3 weeks). I’m so frustrated because my body sucks and the more I diet and watch what I eat the less weight I lose. I hadn’t gained anything in 6 months until a month ago. Now I’ve been tracking since June 1st and gained 5 pounds. ?
