Mine is also 28 September! How are you feeling about it? I’m nervous, scared, and hopeful all at the same time.

Hi, welcome to the best information. My surgery is November 10th. I have a 3 week pre op diet to do beforehand

I'm September 13. I'm so excited and scared and nervous!! What are you all doing to keep distracted? I'm watching a lot of TV, which is really unusual for me. My parents are coming into town this weekend to help me after surgery.

Hi. I don't have an exact date, but my surgeon told me it will most likely be in November. I just have a few tests I have to do. Have already done some of them.

I am not the most patient person , its already been 6 months waiting. These last few are killing me. I want to be thin now ! I have visions of coming out of the UK winter a butterfly. I see my 63 year old self sashaying down the street .....

Summerseeker, I hear you! I had a 12 month wait for my health cover because it's an already existing condition. It was long, frustrating and nudged my depression about, but once I had the surgeon/dietician appointments at the end of July, it got a lot easier. I just needed the "this is definitely happening" confirmation that a surgery date gives.
