  1. I ordered a nice robe for the hospital. When it arrived, I tried it on and looked in the mirror and it hit me that this surgery is really going to happen! Excited and nervous, which I think is normal at this point. Really dreading the two week pre-op liquid diet but am committed to it 100%.
  2. My doctor first recommended bariatric surgery about two years ago. I attended my first information session in August 2013. As I am using a military facility (my husband is a retired Marine), I did not have to go through the insurance approval process. I was required to attend nutrition sessions, psych eval, support groups, etc. So I've been busy! I'm 44 and wish I'd done this sooner. How about you?
  3. My surgery is scheduled for June 17 as well! I'm having mine done at Brook Army Medical Center in San Antonio. How about you?
  4. Hello! I'm new here. My surgery date is June 17 at Brook Army Medical in San Antonio. I look forward to getting to know you all. Kate
