February 20th! I have been "stalking" this site for months now and finally have a concrete date to look forward to so I figured I would share. Good luck to my fellow February sleevers (and other procedures :))!!

I’m scheduled for feb 3rd

Same surgery date! Are you in the pre-op diet phase? Ugh, although from reading through these posts mine is more liberal than some. I get one "meal" a day; 2 Protein Shakes and 2 "snacks". How is yours going?

My surgery will be at Brigham and Women in Boston. Where is yours?

I just found out my surgery date today so no I haven’t started liquids yet. She said I can start on Monday. My plan is the same 2 shakes a day plus one small meal with small portion of mean and no starchy veggies. I’m in WV but getting surgery in VA

I am getting my required nicotine testing done next week, then its just waiting while they send all the info to the insurance company. I am thinking end of February maybe early March surgery date, fingers crossed. It's been a long road - these darn cigarettes. I completed all my other requirements but was struggling to quit smoking. I finally got it- and I am 30 days clean as of Monday, I feel really good about it and no longer having any cravings. Hopefully they don't ding me too hard on the weight gain.

30 Days is great! Quitting smoking was the hardest thing I have ever done; and it is something I am still grateful for even 12 years and 60 pounds later....Good luck getting through the process for approval!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
