I completed my 6 months supervised visit with a dietician on yesterday, so I was excited to get my surgery Date. I got a call just now saying it's looks like my surgery won't be until August 15th.....i was expecting it to be a lot sooner. The lady is going to call me back Monday once she gets a chance to look at "the big calendar" to see if in fact August 15th is the next available appointment or I'll get to have it sooner. I know I need to be more patient but I'm ready to get this over with. Anyways, it's looking like August 15th is the magic number!!!! Who else having in August??? What date in August???

Is it just me.....?
Brandi W replied to anniebanana's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I experience the same thing and it gets on my last nerves, lol. That's why I haven't told many ppl at all because everybody have a horror story to tell. If not I'm being told I'm not "big enough" or I'm "lazy and taking the easy way out". It's my life and my journey and I'm going to do what's best for me.

It's my last monthly supervised visit, and my dietician put me on this meal plan so I can easily adjust to the 2 week Pre-op Diet. It's hard already so I can only imagine that Pre-op diet!! Is it as hard as it sounds????? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App

9 DAYS. Freaking out!
Brandi W replied to madisunshine1's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm an emotional eater too. The worst part for me is that I work in the ER at a hospital where there's ALWAYS food, drinks, and Snacks galore!!!!!! I'm trying to start being mentally prepared for my 2 week Pre-op and the surgery!! Here's my words to you, Just think of the results u are going to get. Imagine yourself getting to your goal weight when you're scared or in doubt. It'll all be worth it in the end. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App -

Hey Brandi! I gained 2 pounds, but I haven't even been given a surgery date. I'm still going through the required 6 month supervised dr's visit, but they say I should be going into surgery the end of august. I too am trying to get the process going with taking off with my job, I want to make sure that I give more than enough notice. I actually just posted a question about this very subject, how many days off are you trying to take? Will you use PTO, FMLA, or short time disability? My insurance required 6 months as well of supervised visits. I'm going to used disability! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App

No surgery date for me. I gained 5 pounds last month so they don't want to give me a surgery date until next visit, which is my last visit with the dietician. However, I did find out its most likely will be at the end of July - Early August. I just wish I had a specific date so I can start the process of taking off with my job. This process can be aggravating but I know it'll be worth it. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App
