Anyone else having surgery in April? Maybe we can find surgery twins here. I thought I could start it off by asking a few questions.

When is your surgery? April 4th
What kind of surgery? Revision from sleeve to Mini Gastric Bypass
Height? 5’8”
Starting weight? 285
Goal weight? 175

In 2014 I was 272. The sleeve was my first choice. I was very anemic at that time. The bypass could have possibly killing me.
I am more balance mentally and physically today. Found out that the shape of my stomach is not correct. This alone has cause GERD. I also have a hernia and a few other things.
So, it's time for me to move on, heal and lose additional weight. I am just happy to have this second chance.

So who is on April 4? I know there’s a ton of us. Anyone in the LA area? I’m nervous for my surgery even though I’ve had a sleeve so I’ve basically done this before.

I feel I have so much to learn even though I have done sooo much research! You can get the sleeve done again?

No Hi CajunSam I didn’t receive my date but I believe it will be in April

When is your surgery: April 1
Kind of surgery: Gastric Sleeve
Height: 5’ 4”

I start my 10 day pre-op diet next Friday!! I have already gotten off caffeine and just finished my last Sprite. I am a little anxious, but so excited!!

My surgery is 4/15. Pre-op diet starts 4/1

My surgeon's office called today to to give me a my surgery date. She wanted to clarify sleeve or bypass and said nurse will call me back but they did not.
