Mines April 16th. Can't wait! My email is dfd3036@gmail.com

April 16th is showtime. Thanks for the encouragement.

Thanks

Thanks Laura. My wife told one of my close friends that she thinks that I am doing it to find someone else. Truth is she's perfect to me and I wouldn't want anyone else. Wish there was a magic pill to slap someone into reality sometimes lol.

You beat me by a day I get mine on the 16th. But hey at least you'll always remember ten day considering its tax day. Time to take that stomach lol good luck girl

Good for you. I don't get morphine I get Dilaudid. I take that through a IV when I have flare ups with my Crohns and it does the trick. Congrats and good luck

Did pre-op testing yesterday and am down to 381 lbs. woohoo

I know I made the right decision to get sleeved 110%. The problem is that NO ONE in my family including my wife seems to like the idea that I am having it done. I get the "well if you can lose weight on your pre-op diet then why do you need the surgery?" My parents just keep saying that they support my decision although they think its a bad idea. I just don't know what to say anymore. I of course am going through with it and I am scheduled for the 18th of April, I just hate the looks and the comments that I get from my wife and family. I feel like some of my good friends support me more. Ugh. Oh we'll at least it felt good to vent. Thanks everyone for listening.

So I started this at 409 lbs. I went for Pre-op testing today and am down to 381.0....WooHoo

Just wanted to give a update that although it was tough I kept with my promise. Wekl almost. I had one....yes one jellybean off the top of the cake my sister made. Still damn proud if you ask me.

So I am scheduled for surgery on 4-16-2013 and started my preop diet a week sooner than required. Even though I was told that I can start my diet 4/1/2013 I decided that I already have accomplished a week on the diet that I might as well keep it up. Instead of having Easter dinner and candy I chose my protein shake and some air popped white corn plain instead. Feeling very proud today. Just wanted to share.

Im going in April 16th. I cant wait!!!!

Ive decided that I am going to stay focused and stay on the preop diet. Its only a few days extra and im determined to do right, lose my weight, and get on with life. So far so good so im just gonna keep up the good work.

Thank you so much everyone I really appreciate all the support I get here.

Ok so I am having a great dilemma. My surgery was scheduled for April 16th. I started preop diet this past Saturday. My surgeons office said I could scrap the diet until the first if I want but the longer I'm on it the better. I'm having a hard time fighting the urge to just eat what I want and then have that "last supper" perhaps at my favorite restaurant. Good idea or just man up and stick with it?

Lol I thought about that after I wrote it. Hey everyones gotta have a hook right? Gets people interested.

Thanks. Now just to get my wif e to be a bit more supportive lol

Insurance called today and I got my appointment. April 16th is the big day

Is passover matzo ok gor preop? I dont see any fat content but I am curious becase it seems like a great crunchy snack.

I would be careful of red colored things this close.

This close I wouldn't risk it. Your there. I still have a few more weeks.

Thanks I just push through but this afternoon I am STARVING!!! I did so good yesterday I only had the protein shake for breakfast one for lunch then 2 oz. Tuna with 1 tbsp. Light mayo on a single slice of toasted rye with 2 cups of steamed carrots
