May 2nd here! I'm so excited! Pre op diet starts on Monday. I want to join the Facebook group too. I'm not telling everyone yet so I like that it's secret.

May 2nd

Mine is at Atlanticare in Atlantic city. Dr Patel. I'm from voorhees

@erinkath. I went to dr salcone seminar before I had to switch to a surgeon my insurance recommended. He is great. I'm in Voorhees. Having mine done through Atlanticare Dr Patel. Good luck !

@@BBweightlossjourney Thank You! I am very excited. My surgeon is Dr Samir Patel with Atlanticare in Egg Harbor Twp. (South Jersey). Counting down the days. I have to go to a "Boot Camp" where they go over surgery and give us some supplies like a pillow and breathing thingy. lol. Then meet with the surgeon one last time. Waiting to schedule my pre op appointment with the hospital. Wishing you luck too! I haven't started my pre op diet yet. I will on Monday. Clear liquids day before surgery only. Yay me!

@ If the insurance didn't pan out I was heading for self pay. Thankfully it was approved the first try. I only waited 4 days to find out. I didn't need the 6 month diet before hand. I'd go crazy. Thank you and good luck to you! Keep me posted on your progress.

May 2nd here! I'm in NJ. Still hasn't hit me that is actually happening. Lol

@@rebelchelz I'm sooooo excited! And nervous! My friend who I'm doing this with is still waiting to hear from her insurance company. I sure hope she gets approved so we can still have surgery the same day. Fingers crossed. Good luck with your appeal!

May 2nd here! I'm in NJ. So excited and nervous! Starting my pre op diet on Monday of 2 protein shakes and 1 meal of 4 oz protein with veggies. Day before surgery is clear liquids / proteins. Looking forward to seeing you all on the losers bench!

Fingers crossed!

@@KindaFamiliar oh I am totally crying after too!! I'm such a baller! @@DOC's Wife thank you! I'm excited and nervous. Looking forward to this journey.

Just got insurance approval letter! Surgery is 5/2! So excited!

Congrats! My surgery date is May 2nd! See you on the losers bench!
