My preop experience has been almost identical. First consult appointment was 7/20, nut appointments in Aug, Sept and last will be 10/24 and I will get my surgery date then! Good luck!
I'm not in that place yet as I'm still pre op but I love the website ThredUP. It's a consignment type site that you can find great gently used (and sometimes new) clothes on for great prices! You can then sell them back in return after they get too big! Win/win! [emoji6]
I have 2 diet classes to attend, but they said they will give me my tent surgery date at my last dietician appointment (I have 3 all together)...I would call your coordinator if you have any questions-good luck!
