    I started on page one of this thread, and I was surprised how many people had fallen off this list here and there. I'm so sorry. I don't know how that's happened, but I've tried my best to include EVERYONE, even those who don't have a date yet. So if you don't see your name let me know, if you have a date change, I'll change it on the list. No problem!

  7. Welcome to Caseaday, pamaj76, loveme0629 and madorann!! Our group is growing so fast! I'll add you all to the list of dates, and if I've missed someone, please forgive me!! Just drop me a line... March is a BIG month for brave people that are taking a step closer to a better life and a healthier person.


  8. I got my official surgery date today!! It's sooner than we had "penciled in"... March 18th!! Two weeks from Monday! I'm so excited! We submitted to insurance today as well! My pre op appointment is 3/8, and my EGD is 3/14! It's all hitting home now.... praying for smooth approval and no complications between now and then!


  9. So far March 4th seems to be the first date of surgeries in our group! I just want you all to know I'll be praying for you, and my thoughts will be with you as well!! How are you guys doing with your pre op diets (if you have one) and what preparations are you working on? I'm all giddy with excitement, lol!!

  12. I feel I have to clear something up. I say I fibbed my way through nutritional classes but I did not. I was told to maintain and not to loose any weight and not to switch over my diet. mayo is very strict and would not allow me to have surgery if I was not ready. I have not had to chew food to be like applesauce. I've only been told to make peices smaller then the nail on my pinky finger. I feel as thought I've cheated somehow but I have followed every doctor's order to the letter and beyond.

    Thanks, Janel

    I hope everyone agrees with me when I say the last thing we need in our group is a judgmental attitude, encouragement and positive reinforcement are welcome. That being said, I thought you may have been referring to the actual doctors' visits. I had a sheet I had to take every month to get signed and it was soooooo tempting to forge a few, but I resisted, that wasn't very positive thinking, and I needed the time to prepare anyway. Your posts are so encouraging! Please accept my apology if I offended! Best of luck!


  13. Okay, couldn't really tell by some of the names but from looking through the posts, I didn't see any guys on your list.

    Surgery date is 11 March. Start my liquid diet tomorrow. I've read a lot about the nervousness and anxieties about getting closer to the actual date. Gotta tell y'all from a guys perspective it's no different. The scary part for me is about the liquid diet preop. After years of being on the "diabetic roller coaster" ( as one of you ladies put it), I'm really not looking forward to having to check my blood sugars that many more times in a day. Especially in the business setting I work in. Maybe it's a guy thing about showing one of my weaknesses...don't know.

    Anyway, aside from all the anxieties I really am looking forward to having a new life. I'd be honored if you'd add me to the list for support and in return I'll offer all the prayers, support and well wishes that I can.

    Steevo

    Welcome, Steevo!! I'd add you right now. We're so glad to have you as a part of our group!
