Tomorrow is my surgery, too! It is at 8 am in Bethesda, Maryland. I am so excited, but nervous, too. It is hard to believe the time has finally come. Blessings to everybody for a smooth and very successful surgery and recovery!

Hi LegalLady- I got my referral from my primary care doctor on December 24. I went to the Bariatric program seminar January 24 where they gave me all of my requirements and I was off and running through required weight loss, sleep study, psych, and my 2 week lovely pre-op ;-)etc. Since it is a military facility, I am sure my process to longer than many sleevers do. 2 days it is!! Hard to believe. I am looking forward to donating lots of clothes very soon!

Thanks for the well wishes, Mina T! Hi, LegalLady! My surgery is on the 23rd in Bethesda, Md.. I am excited, too. I have been trying to focus on organizing the house, getting the husband and kids set up to have an easy time while I am at the hospital, and packing the essentials for my surgery. After the long pre op process I have had, this week is making it feel real to me that I am finally getting sleeved. Oh, and btw, I have cheated, too. I had a boiled egg white when I was feeling starved! so, it happens and then you get right back on track. Best wishes to you this week and for your surgery!
