Mine is on July 19th!!! I start the 800 calorie pre-op diet tomorrow. I am a little nervous about sticking to the program, but I have a great support system.

Good luck ladies!!!

Why do you have to start the pre-op diet so soon?

My doctore requires a pre-op diet for patients with a BMI of 50 or over. I am at a BMI of 49.6 so that is close enough to 50. It is an 800 calorie diet, it doesn't seem like much but I am hopeful.

Oh okay. I havd a liquid diet as well. But I don't start until the 3rd. I think it's going to be tough but I'll make it work! Side note: How do I create one of those body weight ticker banners?

OMG. I just received a phone call from my surgeons office informing me of the insurance approval. I am SO excited yet nervous at the same time. I can't believe this day has finally come. I just wanted to thank each and everyone of you vsters. You all really have helped me tremendously. Words cannot express how grateful I am for finding this site. It's just a wealth of information. Now I can officially count down the days until my surgery!!!!

Surgery scheduled for July 17, 2012!

Thanks again~

Congratulations!!!!! I am so happy for you!

The tickers can be made through your profile. Go up to the upper righthand corner and on the drop down menu (under your username) it will say manage tickers.....
