I am also June 25th. I go in June 11th for the pre-op. I wonder about how my Dr. will handle the pre-op diet...how long I will be on liqiuds etc....hum? Lots of different things on here about what people are doing. So, I guess I will have to see what they say when my time comes!

I'm scheduled for June 4th, too. Seems like a lot of us. Doc says I need an Upper GI prior to, and he also does a sonogram on your gallbladder and will remove during surgery if there are stones present with or without symptoms. I'm a type 1 diabetic with a BMI of 37.5. Looking to cure my sleep apnea and get my diabetes back in check. I don't have to do the liver reducing diet so glad of that!

I couldn't find a June Sleevers forum. If there is one already please direct me!

Well anyway, I'm glad excited that I finally got a date, June 5th. I really wanted it to be sometime during the end of May but that didn't happen. My family will be going out of town, to Disney to be specific, a few days after my surgery because my cousin from Mexico will be making his fist trip here. I'm so sad I won't be joining them but my parents keep telling me I need to look at the bigger picture, or should I say smaller. Haha. I have my preop appointment May 27th. I'm curious as to what kind of diet he will put me on! I'm just excited to get this going! So who else has a June Date? Who is hoping for a June Date? Are you ready yet? Nervous? Excited?

I am planning on a June 18th sleeve surgery. I am beyond excited and impatient by nature so just want to get it done! I am hoping for insurance coverage but that may not happen so I might be paying for it myself.

I am hoping for June 23rd date. I'm done with all my visits and evaluations, studies and the nutritional appointments that are required prior to surgery, but I'm waiting for the insurance approval. I'm on pins and needles and am hoping to have a positive answer by the end of this week. Good luck to all who already have their dates, keep up the good work to all who have already done the Sleeve and patience to all those who are in the process and waiting

I am in exactly the same place. My surgeon gave me a tentative date.... I still have a sleep study to complete this coming week and I will be completely finished. Planning to submit to ins week of May 26 th. MD office tells me approval takes about a week. If it is not approved , I will go ahead and pay for it myself.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
