I am scheduled for gastric bypass on October 11th. So excited but nervous!

Anyone else having surgery in October?

I'm scheduled for my Bypass on October 13!

I’m getting the bypass on Oct 6.
I’m so excited, but nervous about the physical recovery. I have a physical job and want to be safe, yet be able to go back to work.

I am in the same boat with returning to work. My surgeon only gives two weeks off. My employer requires 100% fit for duty. I worry about that.

I’m scheduled 10/25 and so excited yet incredibly anxious

Hello everyone! My surgery date is 10/8 - from the band to the bypass. I am extremely nervous for the procedure and scared of this to not working. I am vegan so the food options also worry me and not getting enough of everything I need. Good luck to all of you and I would like to hear more of your stories post surgery.

My sleeve is scheduled for 10/11. This is my first surgery and I’m doing an early pre-op diet before I start a real pre-op diet on Monday. I’m in the Dallas area

Morning, new here to the app I like being able to read everyone’s stories. I am going for gastric sleeve October 5 at Alabama weight loss by Dr. Schmitt - anyone else have their procedure there?

Hi! I’m scheduled for Gastric Sleeve on October 4, 2021!

October 13 and very excited to get it done.

Mine is sept 30 but most people in the sept thread have gotten their surgery already, so I needed a thread for upcoming surgeries. Good luck everyone!

So excited for you guys! I would love to hear more about you and your journey. I am 49, live in Austin and have struggled with weight my whole life. My surgery is actually a revision from the lap band to gastric bypass. I've spent the last three months researching like crazy and feel really great about this life changing decision!

Are they doing the band removal at the same time as the bypass? I had to have a lap band removed also but he had me do them separately and wait some time in between ?

They are doing both surgeries at same time? If anyone else had a band removal please reply too ?
