  3. I'm June 26!!!!! In Iowa. My surgeon says he removes more bands than than ever nowadays... Good Luck with everything!
  4. Yay!! Get some rest!
  5. Hang in there. It will work out!
  6. Welcome and good luck!
  7. I'm with you too! Surgery June 26. My heart has been racing and I'm addicted to reading everything I can. I can't stay off this page. Lol. I'm driving my husband nuts! Good thing is I only have to be on a liquid diet the day before which is fine cause I probably won't be able to eat anything by then. Sooo nervous!
  8. WhoooooHooooo!!!! Happy for you!
  9. Hi Kiki! Welcome and congrats on your date! Mine is June 26!
  10. I took ten days off. I am a regional office manager and I oversee 3 offices. I have to travel 2 hours one way for one office so that's the only thing that worried my surgeon. He told me to stop after an hour and walk for 5 min. Anyone else have to travel for work?
  11. I have only told 3 people, my husband, best friend, and a close friend. I told my mom today that I was having surgery, she immediately thought I was having a hysterectomy. She went on for about 45 minutes straight, no joke. About how I should not have the surgery and it will ruin me so on and so forth. I finally told her that I was not having a hysterectomy and she said why did you let me go on that long. Lmbo... when it comes to surgeries she is a Debbie downer. I have been in health care for over 15 years so I'm really comfortable with the medical field and the research I conduct.
  12. Welcome! My surgery is June 26.
  13. Just left my appointment and only have to do clear liquids the day before!
  14. Good luck! I'm at mine now too. In the waiting room :-/
  15. I have a 4 year old stepson and his mom wants to bring him up to see me. I said of course in the beginning but now im reconsidering because he loves to snuggle with me. I'm sure I won't be able to take those little knees in the stomach. And I don't want to break his little heart by telling him he can't get under the covers with me.
  16. Best of luck to both of you on Tuesday! I was just in the post op forum... that may help calm your nerves :-)
  17. Praying everything works out for you!
  18. This is what I'm hoping for. I was honestly worried at 1st. Like why is everybody on this liquid diet but I'm not. I had to call my nut and make sure I wasn't missing anything My appointment is Monday so I will find out. Fingers crossed!
  19. This is what I'm hoping for.
  20. I'm sure you will get cleared! Good Luck on your journey. I will be following your progress!
  21. Thank you! I'm excited you too! So nervous about the pre diet and post pain though.... I only took 10 days off work. Wondering if that will be enough... #excited for you
