Wishes4444 2 Posted October 30, 2007 Good Luck Shad! Mine is the day before and it still doesn't seem real. Even with all the pre-op stuff done it just doesn't seem like it is really going to happen. I have been thinking about it for years, and made my first call to the surgeon in June. I was not able to get my first appointment with him until Aug. 8th. And then it began, and here I am one week away. I hope time does go fast I just want to get it over with now. My nerves are kicking in every now and again and it I just to be past this part! The waiting is killing me lol. Good luck let me know how you make out at your DR appointment! Best Wishes, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shadst83 0 Posted October 30, 2007 Awwww ... thanks for the good luck wishes. I had my pre-op appointment today and was impressed once again with my surgeon, the way he shares info, and just the overall vibe that I get with him. I have had so much positive feedback regarding his skills .. I am really pumped to be his patient. He let me know that he has his supply of the new AP bands in and that he expects to band me with the small one. He drew more pictures and shared more of his philosophy regarding wt loss with me as well as went over the post op diet one more time. They wanted to know what was up w/the 3 pounds that I gained since my last visit. I let them know that I've been on my 2007 Farewell To food Tour (:heh: I got that from here), but my pre-op diet starts tomorrow so that's all over. I'm so ready to get this show on the road!!! :whoo: Good Luck Shad! Mine is the day before and it still doesn't seem real.

needto 0 Posted October 31, 2007 Hello. I was just wondering if anyone has the same day or around the 8th of November in Tijuana surgery being done by Dr.Corvala/Dr.Lopez. Getting nervous is there any thing i should bring or want to have fro or after surgery???? Thanks Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Holiwood 0 Posted October 31, 2007 <p>I'm really getting excited!!!! I'll be getting banded on Thursday. I'm a last minute girl... I'll be getting all my post op supplies tomorrow. Had my pre op appt yesterday... it made it seem so real. All my friends have been calling me giving me support. Today was my hardest day on the liquid... I think its cuz I'm an emotional eater... so I just want to snack...chew... but I was not hungry. Its just nerves. But i feel great... I've lost 14 lbs on the pre-op phase.. </p> <p> </p> <p>My ride that was picking me up just bailed... that sucks... </p> <p>all my friends are going on a girls trip to Portland OR.. that I choose to back out of so next trip for me will be just that more amazing.... </p> <p> </p> <p>TO ALL THAT ARE HAVING THERE SURGERY!!! GOOD LUCK & CONGRATS!!</p> url=http://www.TickerFactory.com/weight-loss/w5sjnoQ/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cherlita 0 Posted October 31, 2007 I just got a call from my surgeon's office to let me know that I am approved by United Healthcare. UHC mailed the approval letter yesterday. I'm so excited and I wanted to share. It's been 2 weeks in review, so I'm very happy they were able to turn it around in such a short time for me.
