When is your surgery?



Recommended Posts

Since we're getting closer and closer to November and more and more of us are finding out when our surgery dates are I thought it might be good to have a thread to keep them all in check, like a little November calendar for us all.

Feel free to add when and where your surgery is.

November 5th with Dr. Ortiz in Tijuana for me.

I'll find out which date for sure in October or the end of September. But. It will either be November 2nd, 10th, 17th, or 24th. I am hoping and praying for the 10th. Just works out best. ;)

Hi all, my surgery is scheduled for Monday November 24th with Dr. Borao, Monmouth Medical, Long Branch NJ. I have not received approval as of yet because I am still doing my six month visits with my PCP. November will be month six and then ALL paperwork will be sent in. I'm told it shouldn't be an issue for approval and I sure hope they are right.

I just got back last night from the Outer Bank, NC and had a great time. I am now soooo looking forward to my surgery. I plan to be a lot smaller when we go next year, woohoo!!! :)

Hi everyone,

My surgery is scheduled for November 3rd with Dr.Rabaza in Miami, FL. I'm so excited I can hardly wait. My mom is still getting her clearance but hopefully she will get approval in time and we'll get banded on the same day. Good luck to everyone.

Hi Notorious Novembers!

My surgery is in November, hoping it to be Nov. 12th, could be before or lil after. Have Pre-ops scheduled, and want to prepare at home (like nesting-or am I the only one?) Ready for a new start, and new physical me. Would enjoy November Buddy, I am in Northern California. Have a good day!

P.S. Is Notorious Novembers 'the' group name?

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
