Colleen616 3 Posted October 31, 2012 Finally a date!!! November 8th! Started the process the end of August, had all my insurance requirements met by October 5th. Meet with doctor on October 10th, then he was out of town for two weeks, longest two weeks ever! But today the office called and scheduled me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bonmah77 20 Posted October 31, 2012 I have cleared all the hurdles, going for pre op stuff tomorrow and surgery is scheduled for Nov 8. REally excited. My doctor just told us to follow a diet that worked for you, nothing special. I am nervous and so excited..... 3 mzzjonz, KaranK and Starshine33 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azuniga5 69 Posted October 31, 2012 2 more days!!!! Friday is my band day. I can't wait. I'm down 15lbs from pre op diet. It's been a bit of a struggle but I'm already starting to feel better.

bonmah77 20 Posted October 31, 2012 what type of pre diet have you done? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azuniga5 69 Posted October 31, 2012 I drink 2 Bariatric Advantage meal supplement shakes a day plus Jello, broth and all no calorie sugar free drinks and 1 small meal in the evening. It was a little hard, by the 3rd day I was struggling but got through it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
