December 29th!! So excited to start the new year as a ”new me”!

I won't be doing the pre-op diet over Thanksgiving but I will be doing it over Christmas. My surgery date is 12/27. So, like you, I will enjoy my turkey broth for the holiday! I guess its a small sacrifice to make after how far we've already come and what we've got to look forward to! Its still going to be tough watching everyone else indulge in yummy treats over the holidays while I refrain! Good luck to you! Jen

I'm happily joining you all as a hopefull December Bandster! My last appointment with the dietician is scheduled for December 1st, which will complete all of my pre-op requirements. My paperwork will be submitted to insurance the next day and if all goes as planned, I will have approval shortly after that. Right now I have a tenative surgery date of 12-27-11. I'm not exactly looking forward to the all-liquid Christmas dinner, but I guess that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make! My birthday is the first week in January, so what better gift than the opportunity to finally be healthy? I'm looking forward to this journey with all of you. It's coming up fast! Jen
