When is your surgery?



Recommended Posts

Since we're getting closer and closer to November and more and more of us are finding out when our surgery dates are I thought it might be good to have a thread to keep them all in check, like a little November calendar for us all.

Feel free to add when and where your surgery is.

November 5th with Dr. Ortiz in Tijuana for me.

I'll find out which date for sure in October or the end of September. But. It will either be November 2nd, 10th, 17th, or 24th. I am hoping and praying for the 10th. Just works out best. ;)

Hi all, my surgery is scheduled for Monday November 24th with Dr. Borao, Monmouth Medical, Long Branch NJ. I have not received approval as of yet because I am still doing my six month visits with my PCP. November will be month six and then ALL paperwork will be sent in. I'm told it shouldn't be an issue for approval and I sure hope they are right.

I just got back last night from the Outer Bank, NC and had a great time. I am now soooo looking forward to my surgery. I plan to be a lot smaller when we go next year, woohoo!!! :)

Hi Notorious Novembers!

My surgery is in November, hoping it to be Nov. 12th, could be before or lil after. Have Pre-ops scheduled, and want to prepare at home (like nesting-or am I the only one?) Ready for a new start, and new physical me. Would enjoy November Buddy, I am in Northern California. Have a good day!

P.S. Is Notorious Novembers 'the' group name?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
