I still can't believe I'm so close to having my surgery. I will be the first to have surgery that day. The Dr. should be well rested after the day after the 3 day Memorial day weekend (unless he is on call). I am so excited and nervous at the same time.

My surgery was first scheduled for the day too. I liked that. It gave the hospital staff more time to observe me before I was let go the next day. Also, getting up so dang early in the morning made me sleepy so after sugery so I slept the time away for several hours that afternoon. Anyways, good luck to you. Before you know it you'll be post op and wondering where time has gone!

GOOD LUCK!!! Mine is scheduled for June 9th, check is at 130pm.. which i am not too crazy about.. and I find it odd that its in the afternoon. Id prefer morning so I dont have to be nervous all day long!

Yay for you! I am sure you will do great.

I was so happy I was first, I was so worried about having to sit around and wait for others to go before me but thankfully that didn't happen.

Please update so we know how you are doing!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
