I'm so excited!!! Today our loan went though for the surgery....AND I got hired at a school district here. What a double blessing!!! I'll have plenty of time to have my surgery and to recover from surgery before school starts Aug 4th! Miracles do happen!!!! I'll go tomorrow and pay the surgeon and get my date. I hope it will be very soon.

Congratulations!! This is a great day! Celebrate!

Yay for you!

Congrats! I hope you get a quick date!

Yay! Congratulations. I've been sleeved for two weeks...can't wait to see you on the other side!

Wow!! Thats awesome, congrats!!

:cheer2:

Thank you everyone. I really feel like all of this is surreal. I'm now obsessively researching post op sleevers and how to get through the first couple of weeks. That is my biggest fear. I'm afraid of chronic nausea and low energy level. My plan is drinking lots of fluids right out of the gate to avoid dehydration.

Right now I'm facing lots of big life changes and I hope I'm strong enough to handle them all. They are all good, but it is alot of changes in a short period of time.

I know if I don't do anything else, this surgery WILL be the best thing for me and my family.

And to all you veteran sleevers...be prepared to be bombarded with lots of questions from this newbie!

Take care everyone

What an incredible day for you and your family! Looking forward to hearing back from you about when you get a date. Those obstacles are minor if you look what you have accomplished already. Getting a loan and a job...WOW. Smiles for you.

So happy for you. I can't tell you how much this surgery changed my life. Size 20 to a 12 (so far).. Amazing

Be sure to get some sugar free popscicles. They were my life saver!!

Also get some powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken Soup. The more you get the Protein in, the better you will feel.

Congratulations! So if bad things always happen in 3's does that mean that good things do to? Maybe time to go buy a lottery ticket.

Congratulations!!!

CONGRATS!!!!!!! YAY, Happy Dance!

My date is June 28th!!!!!!! I'm soo happy!!!! (a teeny bit scared)
