3 more days.. May 2nd can't come soon enough. I'll get the phone call today for what time I need to be there Monday.. I'm starting to get nervous. I think I woke up 5-6 times last night, being so excited...

I have a tentative surgery date of May 9th. I still have to do the endoscopy which is scheduled for May 3rd. If it shows I have a hernia then I will have to wait until May 16th so that the dr's office can get clearance from the insurance co. to repair the hernia and do the band at the same time. I'm soooo anxious!

8:45am and I have to be there 2 hours early.

i hope to be banded in may. dr. office submitted to insurance after last nutrisionst class on March 30 still waiting to hear from them. I called Mon. to find out what i needed to do and tell them my last 6 month will be Thurs. they said go ahead and fax dr records to their office but they already sumitted to insurance and they havent requested 6 months records yet. I was shocked i thought they needed my 6 months first. i guess they thought they would send it upon request. idk. im so excited and hope to be approved soon and get a may date.

My surgery has officially been scheduled for May 17th. I start my pre-op diet on May 3rd. I am very excited. Did any of you have a "last Meal"? My dietician told me that she didn't reccomend it because I will be getting food back, but I feel I want to have one last really good meal before I start the liquid diet.< /p>

Thanks, Michelle

I had SEVERAL last meals. I had them for about a week solid! what can i say, i was in panic mode.

my surgery is May 4th and I don't know how much weight i gained during my last week of meals, but i'm 15 pounds below what i weighed at the last visit to the doctor's office, so that is what counts (for me).

i'm glad i had that quality time to spend with burgers, pizzas, steaks, fajitas, etc...i will cherish those memories of the last time i was able to eat without chewing first.
