After 6 months of Doctor's appointments, sleep studies and prodding and probbing I got the call from the Doctor's office to schedule the date; decided to opt out of December as I have two wonderful grandchildren who I want to watch throughout the holiday season as they go through their concerts and excitment.

So we scheduled the date for January 10, 2012 - three days before my 63rd birthday! It is the very best gift I could give myself and my family. All these years of struggling with weight and now not being able to do the things I always did because fo the extra pounds I am carrying around with me.

This is my first post - have been reading daily for weeks; being inspired by all of you and your honesty.

CONGRATS!!! I have went through the 6 months of diets and all the other hoops as well and my surgery date is January 10th!! We will be Sleeve Sisters! I can't wait!
