Jan, awesome job at recovering from your addiction, I have faith in you that you will do great with your surgery and remember that this site is here for you and all of us so we can talk about our feeling and whatever we are thinking with no judgement and knowing that many of us have the same fears about surgery it should not be something that anyone goes into lightly surgery is a major step on helping us all become healthier.

my surgeon states no caffeine for two weeks post op....

Janice, my surgery is on 2/5 and I'm the same way I have to keep telling myself that this is the best thing that I can do for myself to make sure I'm around to see my grandkids someday (hopefully not for awhile, my son is only 17) but I want to be active and at the weight I am right now I can't enjoy life to its fullest because of my knees and back....
-
2/5 is my surgery date.... I'm nervous and excited and keep on having to reassure myself that this is going to be the best thing that I have ever done for myself....

I'm just shy of 5'3" and I would like to get to around 130lbs but would be happy to just be in a size 10 again....

I got my surgery date, I am being sleeved on 2/5!!!!!
-
Jenna, we will be having surgery the same day only my surgery is at 10am...

I'm scheduled for Feb 5th and my surgeon too is doing a 48 hour preop clear liquid diet

I went to my preop appointment today and I got my surgery date it's 2/5/13 OMG two weeks away..... I am a bundle of nerves and excitement right now. It is so close and after a year of going through nutrition classes and appointments I finally have the date. I'm trying to remember everything that I have read on here about things I need to make sure I bring with me and trying to remember that this will be so worth it once the weight comes off.....
-
Awesome... I can't wait to schedule my surgery and get this weight loss journey started....
-
my preop is on the 23rd I haven't scheduled my surgery yet, but I'm hoping it will be soon after. Good luck to you on your up coming surgery idn two weeks, I'll be right behind you though.....

GBMC is Greater Baltimore Medical Center in Towson. I had to option of GBMC, St Agnes, or Johns Hopkins, but I went to the nutritionist in Woodlawn.

So happy the surgeon finally has everything they need pre-op appointment made for 1/23/13, I now see the light at the light at the end of the preop phase and begining of the operative phase
-
Dannipo, I talked to someone else at Kaisegr and they found it....OMG I am so stressed out because of everything but now I can schedule my surgery. I'm having mine done at GBMC. Got my preop appointment today 1/23....
-
I've received my approval have most of my papers into my surgeon but my mental health eval that Kaiser can't seem to find that I did back in March...After I figure out where that went I can schedule my surgery...
-
I'm still pre-op, and Kaiser lost my mental health eval...b.so I'm waiting for a call back from to see what I have to do. Did anyone else struggle with getting info from Kaiser to their surgeon?
-
I've tried the Isopure too, I think it is the smell that turns you off of it, it has that protein smell to it. Good luck to you both I can't wait till I have my date.....

So I have seen my surgeon on 11/15, did all my pre-op testing and now I'm just fighting to get my surgeon all the test results!!! I want to schedule my surgeon before I syke myself out and not do it. I have been overweight most of my life and over the past two years I am the heaviest I have ever been. As everyone here I have tried so many things to lose weight and have become so depressed that nothing has worked. I'm a nurse and am on feet 12 hours a day and notice that my knees are starting to bother me more than normal and know that all this extra weight on my is not helping. I have heard great success stories from people who now someone who has had this story and really am ready to get this done.
