YAHOOOOO! I got a tentative surgery date! :biggrin2: Looks like it will be 12/28/11! I don't know how I feel about it not being sooner but I guess this way I can enjoy Christmas without feeling tired. So I guess I will look on the bright side of it and be happy that my surgeons office FINALLY got back to me! I have to see the surgeon on 12/6/11 for a final weigh in and to go over the procedure one more time. I am excited! I am seriously hoping I can keep off the 15lbs I had to lose. This will be a true test since I will have to be good for the holidays. Hopefully I will be ok when all those special treats start calling my name! :decision:
