I got approved and my official surgery date is March 17th. Anyone else for March?

Just had mine March 1st!

I juuuust squeaked into March. I got approved yesterday for the 31st. I had to lose 10% of by total weight before my insurance would approve so I've been doing the weight loss program since July of last year. I am READY!

Hi all
Started this process with a consult in October 2020. Just got cleared with GBP surgery scheduled March 26 - I was so happy to get scheduled so quickly after clearance. but still scared as hell, not for the surgery but the 6-12 month post op adjustment. So glad for this site. Reading as much as I can on the web to feel as prepared as possible.

Is anyone else feeling exhausted - I am guessing it’s just the pre-op diet.

Congratulations [emoji122]

Wow. Congratulations. I think that in itself would have been discouraging for me so you get lots of credit for such determination.

I am up for March 29!

My liquid diet is different than most...and I can only guess it's because it's a Canadian Bariatric Program (vs USA).

I started mine on Feb 22...I am so tired of it :S
