qtpatootie2681 29 Posted July 6, 2014 4th of July holiday and switch in surgery schedules to every other Friday has put me into August now. August 1st is looking like my new date for sleeve surgery!

jdillon 355 Posted July 6, 2014 We were in the same July Sleevers group but I found out my date might get changed to August too! Won't know till Tuesday but we'll see. It's frustrating to say the least. I'm to anxious trying to think about something else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jdillon 355 Posted July 6, 2014 I'm hoping for August date. I have my last appt on the 14th for it to go to insurance approval. I'm staying on top of everything. My surgeons office has everything but my NUT consult. Currently they are doing end of July into August scheduling. I'm hoping it goes quickly. Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

orlando 44 Posted July 7, 2014 (edited) August 18th here...yeeeeeah baby! *doing a happy dance* I have to do an Optifast diet for three weeks before, starting July 28th. So doing the food funeral right now. Ice cream is on my grocery list for today and I....don't....care. *evil wicked grin* My date is August 4th. I'm doing the food funeral thing too. I've been eating ice cream a lot too. *evil-er wicked-er grin* **I know there are no such words as evil-er & wicked-er. I just like the way they sound.** I've been enjoying my food funerals a lot lately. When I got my EGD last week. I found out I actually lost a few pounds. WTH??? My metabolism is all out if whack. I can't wait to get the surgery and to start a new chapter in my life. Good luck everybody. WE GOT THIS!!! Edited July 7, 2014 by orlando Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
