I am SO happy for you! Good luck and keep us posted when you can, please. Get us "firecrackers" started off right. All right, guys, here we go!

So excited! My passport came today! I also just attended the funeral of a friend who lost her battle with cancer and I realize that life is just too short to spend it overweight and unhappy. I've really enjoyed reading in this forum and getting all the positive motivation. Anyone else going to se Dr. Kelly on the 13th?

Yeah, Kath-a-leena!!!!

It's almost time! You should be on your way to Mexico right now, but just so you know, I'm thinking about you and praying for you tomorrow!!! I'm sure things will go smoothly and you'll be home recovering in nooo time at all! You're gunna be scootin' your butt over on the losers bench on Tuesday to make room for me!

Good Luck and keep us updated on your progress!!!

Mel, i hope you enjoy your vacation... have enough fun for too...

I was excited and looking forward to it until I heard about the lady who died with Dr. Kelly. Now, I'm nervous & scared. I imagine that I'll be going back & forth between all the feelings there are until it's over with. I get to go on vacation to the beach with some friends before I have to start the pre-op diet. So, I'll try my best to enjoy the end of the old me & get ready to welcome in the new me.

Good luck!

So ready for the sleeve and the results! Not so ready for the pre-op liquid diet! LOL! I moved my date up 1 day to the 12th.

Hey readytolive - welcome to the largest sleeving date in July! There's a lot of us going that day!

Got my date! My new life starts July 18th! I am so excited! I talked my doctor's office and they are letting me do part of my pre op this week. That means I can spend 4 days at the beach (once my daughter gets back from her mission trip) before I do my final pre op the 15th and start my new life tan and happy! Woo-Hoo! Put me on that list and make room on the losers' bench.
