  1. Hi everyone!! This is my first post & I'm looking for October surgery buddies. I'm very excited about the surgery. I've gotten my psych clearance, scheduled my sleep study, nutrition classes and upper endoscopy. My date is October 14th. Btw, anyone here from Jersey? Look forward to making friends w everyone!

    Hi! I just signed up to, this is my second Day on this site!! Not sure if I posted anything lol but I did setup my profile!! I'm scheduled for Oct3rd and I'm a ball of nerves!! I'm Melissa and its great meeting you, I'm about 3 hours away in Mass!


  2. Hi everyone, I have been following along and trying to get a chance to respond. Surgery is Oct 2nd and I have been a bit overwhelmed between getting ready, making sure family will be taken care of and work. So I finally have a minute. I will admit I am now a bit nervous but I know this is going to be a wonderful journey. I am happy to be on this journey with all of you. Its always nice to have people who understand. I started my pre op diet which was Protein but have changed to a Liquid Protein diet as I fill up fast and wasn't getting much food in me anyway. I will be thinking of you all during your surgeries. I leave for Mexico Wednesday morning and surgery is Thursday. I will post when I can. Best wishes and hugs to everyone :)

    Good Luck! And try to keep us Updated :)


  3. I was supposed to have mine on November 12th but I called once a week to check for cancellations and now I am scheduled for October 3rd. I would ask to be put on the waiting list if there is one. Good luck!

    Congratulations, so seems we're getting it done on the same Day!! I live in Mass I go in at 5:30am and its for 7:30am it's literally days away, and I'm so nervous, happy, anxious, scared and excited all at once!


  4. BigMAlways, I didn't have a endoscopy either. I'm right there with you on being nervous. My date is Oct 1st and I did have to do a 10 diet, just depends on what your surgeon wants. Now that it's just a few days away it's so REAL. Knowing that this is a life changer. I know I'm ready but I'll also be learning new things, that's a scary thought too, after all I've lived in THIS body for 50 years.

    Thanks for the feedback I soooo appreciate it!!


  5. I'm scheduled the 30th and I have a stress test this Friday and for some reason he wanted me to do blood work on my period (cardiologist) so blood work tomorrow. The 22 I find out from my last two doctors if I'm good to go or not so fingers crossed everyone!

    Jeez! I didn't have a stress Test! I go tomorrow for a Support Meeting then on the 1st I meat with the nutritionist... Then surgery on the 3rd" Thanks so much for responding, I'm so new to this ! I'll keep you updated!
