Me, too!!! So happy to have others to share this experience with over the next months or longer...!

Awesome! Mine is on July 31st. I am on Day 4 of PreOp diet and doing great. Lost 7.6 lbs so far. My doctor has me on the Sugar Busters diet, so I'm allowed to eat actual food, just high protein/low carb/sugar. Good luck on Tuesday! Stay positive!

I'm near Valdosta and getting banded on July 31st. Would love to share stories, info, and ideas as I start on this journey!! Have you had your surgery yet?

I'm scheduled for July 31st, also!! So excited!!

Oops, had a connection error and didn't think the first post went through! Sorry!!

Scheduled for surgery on July 31st! So excited to become a healthy new me!! Started my pre op diet 2 days ago and have lost 6 lbs so far. Ready for this journey...

Just got approved and scheduled for surgery on July 31st!! Started my pre op diet and have lost 6 lbs already! So excited for this journey and ready to appear to others the way I feel on the inside!! Ready to be a healthy new me!

I am currently in a similar position....sort of. Can't really help you, so I am sorry for that, but I want to get started on this site so I can develop some support for the whole process. My insurance requires 3 consecutive months of documented weight loss effort, which I'm sure most do. I only have 1 month, although I've been talking to my doctor about weight loss for like 15 years! We've just never done anything formal with it I guess. I go Friday for my 2nd month appointment and hope that once 3 months are completed, my insurance will approve it and I'll be on my way to getting a date scheduled. I won't have my psych eval or bloodwork done until down the road. Wishing you luck and hoping you hear something soon!
