speechick1969 22 Posted July 21, 2017 I want to join! I'll be sleeved the 22nd. Excited, anxious, nervous, but optimistic. Look forward to getting to know you all! I quit smoking this week which I should have done regardless of being sleeved. One of many challenges to come, but I'm ready! 1 TJnWA reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ktcampesina 3 Posted July 25, 2017 Hi everyone! My date is set for 8/25! Would love to be sleeve buddies and support each other through this. 1 Noworneverthin reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
txsrooster 45 Posted July 25, 2017 I'm set for Aug 21st. Insurance took just over 2 weeks. When I called at the 2 week time frame they said it was taking BA bit longer because there was a holiday in that 2 weeks. Preop appointment is Aug 11. No diet before hand just the day before.

Noworneverthin 59 Posted July 25, 2017 I got lucky, I don't have to do the preop diet till 2days before. My bmi is low 34 so they didnt want me to lose too much prior to the surgery.Sent from my LGMS550 using BariatricPal mobile app 1 lindabalseca reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My date has yet to be determined, but should be decided in the next 2 weeks. The insurance is a go, med consults are about done so my sleeve will be done shortly after yours, would be glad to support you. I could use it as well.

lornasaurusleeve 91 Posted July 26, 2017 Hey Guys & Gals [emoji1480] I just finished my last Nutritionist appointment today and I am totally psyched,nervous and a little .. well a lot anxious. I wanted to create this thread to open discussion and new friendship, I have 15 days for my insurance approval and I'm crossing my fingers. My surgery date is August 7th, I'D LOVE to have a sleeve buddy ! I'm an open book ! Mine's on the 8th! Started pre-op diet and incentive spirometer work today. Also had my H&P today. Everything is in motion now and it's gotten very real very fast! 1 Noworneverthin reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heatco 9 Posted July 31, 2017 WOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My surgery just got changed to August 1st. Now I have to hurry and get my college work and exams done before then............this will allow me 2 1/2 weeks before I begin my last semester of college............I may even get more than a Popsicle for my birthday on the 29. [emoji4] Less time to research and cruise on this site but......so happy I will get a little re-coup time. I'll check in tonight for some more reading! Back to school work. I'm a almost 54 year old starting a new career. I worked in food all my life and owned my own place for over 23 years. My life revolved around food...............this is definately going to be a journey but, one I'm looking forward to.Good luck!!! I'm a week after you on the 8th! 1 Noworneverthin reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heatco 9 Posted July 31, 2017 I have such mood swings--from really excited to what-in-the-world-am-I-doing! This waiting is the hard part! I agree! I'm feeling the same. My Dad & Brother did it 1 & 2 years ago and are doing great both down over 100lbs. So I keep holding onto that. I just want the surgery here & over! Good luck!

CoCo0273 39 Posted July 31, 2017 Hi everyone! I would love to be everyone's buddy! I'm scheduled for August 3rd for my surgery. I'm also having my hiatal hernia removed at the same time as the gastric sleeve surgery. I've been an emotional eater so the past 3 days of my liquid diet has been tough but I'm determined to succeed. Any suggestions for the next step after the Clear Liquids?
