Congratulation on your surgery date.

August 25th

My surgery is for August 12. I keep hoping it will really happen. I started this process September 2020. Good luck to you all!

I’m getting gastric bypass . My doctor just filled out my clearance form and turned it in today. My insurance is Cigna and from my research they’re pretty fast ? so I’m thinking August

My Surgery is scheduled for August 12!!!! I can’t wait.

I'm very excited but also a bit nervous. Still going back and forth wether this is the right choice for me.

I know I'll probably never lose the weight without the surgery, but I'm afraid I'll fall back into old habits after having the surgery. Is anybody else having these doubt/concerns?

Yes, I’m worried about the same thing too. I have to remind myself that WLS is a strong tool. I’m having RNY and it will correct the hiatal hernia and GERD. The only way to get better is to go through.

I have been lurking a bit but this is my first post. After a year I finally have a date of August 2nd. Good luck everyone!
