Mel1071 149 Posted August 23, 2013 As of right now I'm scheduled or December 16 @ 8am - only a 2 day pre-op diet. After meeting with the surgeon here in town and feel very confident I am in very good hands. Love him and his office manager. 1 leelah68 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mel1071 149 Posted September 6, 2013 I was hoping for 12/23 but it looks like my doctor's office is going to be pretty barren that week. They said if they decide they'll be doing surgeries that week they will move my date from 12/16 to 12/23. As of right now 12/23 is my one week follow up appointment. 1 leelah68 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WeighDownSouth 40 Posted September 6, 2013 Hi December ladies and gentlemen. I'm coming from the October group. Bummed that I have to wait 8 more weeks, but I'm starting a new job and just couldn't do the time off. I work at a community college so as soon as exams are done...hola Tijuana ! 1 Mel1071 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mel1071 149 Posted September 6, 2013 I started teaching at a CC this semester and that's why I'm looking at a December date - gotta love the nice break between semesters. My last exam is the 11th (or is it the 12th?) surgery is scheduled for the 16th and the Spring semester starts 1/16. So I'm hoping that's plenty of time to recuperate. Plus, my husband has 2 weeks off at Christmas time so he will be able to take good care of me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TahoeDoll 28 Posted September 8, 2013 My job is busiest before Christmas and new projects starts beginning of January. I'm hoping to use the holidays for recovery as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mollz 18 Posted September 8, 2013 My last dietician appointment will be mid-November. Should be able to submit shortly thereafter and hopefully get approval in 2 weeks from then. Looking like December, for me too! Best.Christmas.Gift.Ever. 3 leelah68, TahoeDoll and Mel1071 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NewAshes 232 Posted September 8, 2013 Ugh I need to lose 11 more pounds by nov 26th. It seemed like a long time but trying to lose more than what I already have lost is difficult. I keep losing and gaining now >.< Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reviewer 20 Posted September 8, 2013 I have my first appointment on Tuesday and I've been told my supervised diet will last for 3 months. Hoping for late December as my wife will be off for the holidays. It may end in January though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leelah68 12 Posted September 9, 2013 So I got my date 12/23/13. Before x-mas my gift to myself lol . Yah I'm so happy for you. I've got mine scheduled for Dec 7th now and I can't wait. Some days I get a little nervous and wonder will this really work for me? And will I get fat again? But I think that comes with our territory and past failures. So I'm going to continue to think positive and jump this cliff that's holding me back from being healthy. And Dec can't get here soon enough. 1 Mel1071 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
