I did get my surgery date today, woohoo! It's July 12th! I was afraid I was going to have to wait till the end of August but Nick, the scheduler with my surgeon, pulled a miracle out of his calendar book!

Now to jump through more preop testing hoops... ha ha.

I have been to more doctors appointments in the last 6 months than in the entire decade previous. Whoof.

Sorry for being hyper but I am EXCITED! YAY!

Congratulations Bryn! That's awesome!

Rock on us, Aminah! We can be sleeve sisters!

Congrats on getting a date! Good luck!

Congrats on the date! I got mine today as well!!

How exciting! Are you ready for the big changes ahead?

I am also having mine on July 12th!

Wow, there's lots of us July 12th-ers! Utterly cool! I need sleeve sisters so that is awesome.

@iegal - I think I'm ready for the major changes... I have reconciled myself to being on a partial liquid diet 2 weeks before the surgery (to keep the carbs down per my surgeon's orders and the NUT) and am basically waiting for that period to begin. I'm trying to take a very 'cross that bridge when we come to it' approach, because if it were up to me I'd be having the surgery even sooner!

I'm very jazzed up about this change in my life. I have been working towards it since December of 2010 (when I went to the introductory seminar). This step has been a long time coming and I know it's only one step (albeit a big one!) in my weight loss journey.

How exciting, congrats on getting your date!!
