Thanks everyone!! Well, I just got it scheduled for Tuesday, May 10th!! I can't believe I'm actually gonna be able to do this!! Woo Hoo! Oh and I found out that I'd only have to do a 1 week liquid diet instead of 2 weeks, which is a super bonus!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! I got approved today too. I could have done it that last week of April, but I wanted to wait until my daughter finished her exams and was home for the summer. So I'm doing May 2.

We should follow each other as we go through the process. You will be a few days ahead of me, so I can probably learn a lot from you!

I'm just really excited and can't believe it's actually gonna happen! Good luck with everything, we should definately keep each other posted on our progress!

I am excited and scared! I have had 3 surgeries in my life and each time I get more and more scared. The last one 2 years ago, they had to give me some heavy duty stuff before they even took me into the OR. I just get SO nervous about the anesthesia. But I'm so excited about the new life I'm embarking on. I just wish I had done this years and years ago. :rolleyes:

I think we all need to stay up to date with each other, as my date is May 9th! :) Congrats on your date!! I am sooo very happy for you, I know how excited you are, as I was screaming, laughing, crying all on one phone call this morning LOL

Congrats! I remember how exciting that phone call was!
