Anyone already approved and has a July date? I am excited, nervous, and a world of other emotions! Anyone else in here with July dates already?

Ladies, another member in this thread has already made a private FB group for us to keep in touch. Check it out on facebook, search for JulyWLSJourney

I was given 5 refills. Not sure if i will need to take it for that long though. I have not been instructed yet. I am going to my last appointment before surgery this thursday i will ask about it then. Hopefully i can get some more insight for ya. i will keep you posted. Add me if you want to keep chatting, we seem to have more or less the same stats

I am still pre-op, scheduled for bypass on July 28th and my doctor already prescribed the Ursodiol for when I return home from my hospital stay. For me i guess they are doing it for preventative measures. I have not had any testing done so i think its just to make sure i do not have any stones. They also prescribed some injections for blood clots and an acid reducer for my stomach. i have no idea how i am going to keep the two pills down if everyone tells me that after bypass they can only have chewable medication at first. We will see.... I hope it all works out for you!

WOOHOOO I am July 28th Also! so excited and nervous and anxious and all kinds of things but mostly excited for the journey and my new life....

I am in South Florida also! what part are you from? I am in Broward County, Coral Springs to be exact... =)

I'm August 1st! Close enough right? Lol. Excited and nervous. Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

TODAY ISYOUR BIG DAY! I hope everything turns out well for you and pray for a speedy recovery!

My surgeon isn't requiring me to do a pre-op diet either. I thought it was kind of weird since everyone i see has to do one.... the anxiety and nervousness is killing me though. July 28th can't come soon enough!

I have taken the first steps in my journey and now i am awaiting the approval from my insurance company. I would love to at least chat with others in my local area. Are any of you great people from South Florida?

I requested to join

Oh no. I am sorry to hear that. but at the end of those 6 months, everything will happen so quickly. I am actually in the Ft Lauderdale area. I went to the seminar in march and I am now scheduled for surgery on July 28th! Next week I begin all my pre op testing. I am excited and nervous at the same time!

Woooohoooo we share a date. Haha. Add me so we can keep in contact throughout the journey. ???? Sent from my SM-N920T using the BariatricPal App

I think its crazy how long some people have to wait. I would lose my marbles! haha... I began inquiring in February and it all went so fast. Here i am now, in the waiting game for my July 28th date... Im a blog rookie but i do post on there from time to time and plan to log every step of the way in this journey, if you ladies want to follow me on there that would be awesome! (www.mamimoni.com)

I was given my preop instructions and the date for my educational class as well as a bunch of consents and paperwork to fill out. I was told to begin clean eating and i need to lose about 10 lbs prior to surgery. I want to close my eyes and jump right into July! hahaha!

I was approved just yesterday also!!!! =) I am in South Florida... Where are you located?

Wow quite a few of us with dates in July.... I am scheduled for July 28th. I am very excited. Has anyone gotten their pre op instructions yet?

Has anyone had any experiences with Humana Family (through medicaid)???

I got the phone call that i was approved TODAY! wooohooo

I am in Broward County... specifically in Coral Springs... i am seeing Dr Wizman in Margate... anyone near me still lurk this forum?
