Was just recently scheduled for October 19th. Have been working toward this for about 2 years. I and about a 8 week wait from the time we submitted the paperwork to the insurance company to hear back and get verification that the paperwork really was an approval letter. Got my surgery date on Aug 19th for the 19th of Oct.  What is another 2 months...

HI- I AM SCHEDULED FOR TEST ON SEPTEMBER 28TH AND THE 29TH I AM TO SEE MY SURGEON.  I AM HAVING A REVISION.  I HAVE BEEN APPROVED FROM INSURANCE JUST WAITING TO TALK TO SURGEON AND SET DATE.  HAVING IT @ CLEVELAND CLINIC-DR. SCHAURER.
I AM PREPARING MYSELF NOW WITH HABITS, KICKING OLD "BAD" HABITS TO THE CURB AND STARTING WITH NEW "GOOD" HABITS.  HOW ABOUT YOU HAVE YOU STARTED ON LIQUID FOODS AND DRINKING WATER AN HOUR AFTER  OR BEFORE MEALS?
I KNOW IT IS ROUGH BECAUSE I HAD IT DONE IN 1998 AND I WAS LIKE A BABY TAKING BABY STEPS BUT "BOY" WHEN YOU ACHIEVE YOUR WEIGHT GOALS IT IS SO WORTH IT.
GOOD LUCK WITH SURGERY... LET US KNOW WHAT THE SURGEON SAYS...

October 6 here.  RNY (probably open, but we'll see)
