    I have a surgery date!

    Oh my goodness yes! Throw me a Xanax my surgery is 7/24 and a lot of things are becoming real! somehow today I'm most nervous at the prospect of not being able to tolerate fruit! I had a fruit funneral! I ate a necterine and an apricot and a bunch of fruits for the week! I can't help but be sad at the thought... (I went to my very first support group which brought a mixture of anxiety fear and relief some people talked about the inability to tolerate fruit. I can handle the idea of no sugar but no fruit that's kinda crazy)... Sent from my XT1635-02 using BariatricPal mobile app

    Wasting food

    Lol are you in a city you could offer it to a Homeless person sometimes it's presumptive to think they will want it I once bought a homeless lady sleeping in the snow in the ally behind my apt Starbucks Breakfast and hot chocolate and she yelled at me :/ but I never I give up I give fruit and spare change and sweaters or old blankets to people with signs on corners when I see them most are very thankful for anything you can offer or tell you if they don't want it...

    1st MD appt

    Your surgeon? They weighed me and took vitals went over labs cause I had just had my physical went over health history and issues talked about why I was there... Went over options pros and cons of each I asked 100 questions about the mechanics of the surgery I'm a little anatomy and physiology nerdy went over what he wanted me to do in addition to what I've done before surgery. Another set of labs closer to the date a sleep study an upper GI and EKG and psych eval talked about requirement for my ins. I have bcbs so I have 6mo nutrition coaching phone calls and I showed him my tummy ???? I'm pretty sure that was my idea? Sent from my XT1635-02 using the BariatricPal App

    Will I go?

    They have to intubate you to be able to put a tube into your stomach and make sure you are still breathing while that happens the tube in your stomach is used as a guide for what to keep and staple off... You need to be put to sleep to get the tube and intubation down the likelihood of you letting them do that while awake is super small Sent from my XT1635-02 using the BariatricPal App
