I am anticipating a July/August surgery date. I have some pre-op appointments on May 21 and see the surgeon on May 23 at which time I will be scheduled. My insurance auth is all set to go just waiting on schedules at this point. In the meantime I am on a 1200-1500 calorie diet, logging all meals, tracking macros and walking. I have also taken the initiative to work with an eating disorders therapist to start working through the emotional aspects of this whole process and develop tools that will ensure my success post op.
