I have a date!



Recommended Posts

I just got an email from my surgeon's office manager. She said that they were moving my appointment with the surgeon up to June 13th and that they had scheduled my surgery for July 3rd! I am completely thrilled! My appointment with the surgeon was scheduled for June 27th and I hadn't even gotten a surgery date yet. I thought it was going to be sometime in late July.

I can't believe this!

One long journey ends and another begins. Great news. This may call for the use of an all too overused term:

Woo Hoo! :clap2:

I know you had been pushing for this to be done while you still had the current insurance. Does this work out for that??

Yep! I am so thrilled. I was expecting to have surgery in late July, which would only give me a few days before my insurance changed on August 2nd, but I guess the surgeon's office wanted to give me a little bit of extra time.

Many congrats Laurend! Do you have a pre-surgery diet? With close to two thousand posts to your credit you must be the most informed pre-bandster ever. I can't wait to hear about your weight loss victory.

I think so. From what I've heard, my surgeon puts her patients on a 2 week low-carb/low-fat diet before surgery.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
