<p>I am just beginning to get&nbsp;my funding and appointments&nbsp;scheduled. I've had 6 months of&nbsp;Doctor&nbsp;monitored dieting, &nbsp;a Psych assessment and have gone to 3 different seminars.&nbsp; I'm really excited about the life changing surgery and potentially having more energy and less weight to carry around. I gained the weight before and after having a baby and so 32 years later, I'm going to get rid of the &quot;baby fat&quot;.&nbsp; I&nbsp;am researching&nbsp;the surgery and reading what other people are telling about their experiences. I would like to know&nbsp;more about meals and what can or cannot be eaten, possible a menu that I can follow. I haven't met with my surgeon as of yet but&nbsp;I have 3 appointments within the next 10 days. I&nbsp;would like to know where to buy Myocel. &nbsp;</p>

<p>I have the surgery scheduled on 12/12/11 at 1:00 p.m.&nbsp; I will spend the night in the hospital. I have lost 11.2 lbs in the past 2 weeks as of Friday when I weighed in at the doctor's office. I'm not scared or anxious today. I know it's the best thing that I could do for myself, my children and grandchildren. This is going to be a December to Remember!</p>
