Finally got the call today! Surgery is scheduled for September 8th! Now to do all the final Protein and Vitamin shopping and rearrange a couple things with work. He told me to plan on three weeks minimum off work.

I am pre-op too and can't wait until my last nutrition appointment in October.

[India928 81]

Surgery date is September 14th.

Let me just say....my therapist is certainly earning her money with me! I am all over the place! My food addict is whispering in my ear every damn day, trying to hold on for dear life. It is trying to plant doubt, hopelessness, fear and anger

9/14/15 Lets go!

@@tami1970 I feel terrible that I am a couple of days late to this but congrats! I have a very good friend that went to Dr Hill as well and loved him as well as had zero complications in the year and a half since her surgery.. Thinking of you!

India928, so glad you have a therapist you like and trust who is taking this wild and crazy journey with you! Mine is worth his weight in gold!

I'm pre-op too. I'm just waiting to meet with my surgeon, do my psych evaluation, and get my surgery date in a couple of weeks. I'm really excited!!

[India928 81]

Thank you Choosehope! Honestly, I wished more people facing surgery would and/or could get a therapist for the long haul. Surgery is the start of facing the demons that got us to this desperation. goodbye to our best bud - carbs and sugars!

Good afternoon.... So I called the insurance company it's still pending in review but the tentative date for services was 9.21 at submission of paperwork

Crossing my fingers

My doctors group submitted to insurance a week ago, I asked them to submit before they thought I would get approved. I was told by the surgeons group, and several insurance reps that I needed to do a 6 month program, but I only did 3 and I was approved! Surgery is scheduled for 9/29. So excited!

[sweettooth2015 171]

Congrats ms @@Theresa23 that gives me hope. What insurance do you have
