December Sleevers?

[De-jo 22]

Any of you guys getting sleeved in December? I was offered October 16th but due to my upcoming wedding and school and work and blah-blah-blah I had to wait till December. Any one else out there ready to role in December??? My preop diet ( 2 weeks liquid) starts Nov.25th so no turkey for me. I've already informed family I will be a no show this Thanksgiving, so worth it though. I decided to have a pre-Thanksgiving the Saturday before.

Yes! There are December sleevers! I'm trying to gather everyone in this thread. http://www.verticalsleevetalk.com/topic/96637-december-2013-sleevers-come-in/

Congrats! I have to host Thanksgiving so I have to wait until after. Hoping for Dec 5.

I have my psych eval at the end of this month and hopefully will be scheduled for December. So far on the nutritionists diet I've lost 10lbs. Are you guys required to be on a special diet before your pre op liquid diet like me?

[De-jo 22]

Yes, I am required to be on a liquid 2 weeks before,mine starts on Nov 25th. Luckily I wasn't asked to lose weight prior to surgery. Although I think it's because I had lost a few lbs between my consult and my NUT visit.

I got denied for my psych eval. I'll find out this Tuesday if he will clear me. Unlike you guys, I have to have clearance from everyone and have everything done in order to get a date. Which is a bummer.

That stinks! Can you get a second eval?

I think all of us need clearance from different docs. Imbself pay and had requirements too. I'm concerned about my EGD. Hopefully I will be cleared.

Good luck on Tuesday!
