So in getting my surgery jan 18 wish me luck. Had to cancel due to my mom in intensive care back in october

Good Luck! I hope to join you in January with my surgery. Just waiting for the insurance approval then we can set my date! Can't wait to see how you do!

I'm scheduled for my surgery on Jan. 16th! I wish u all the best as u begin this life changing journey. Our new life is just a few weeks away!

My surgery is Jan 16, I just got all the dates for my cardiologist, pulmonologist, type and cross and anesthesiology and of course the appt with the hospital for the up front copay! I feel a little surreal, I've been waiting so long and now it feels like it will be time and I won't be ready. Just decided to start ahead on the pre op diet so I have a little room to get used to it before it is critical, no enlarged liver for me to have them back out at the last minute, right? I'm down 9 lbs in just a week so I'm psyched. Yea, for us jan sleavers, Happy new year to all and to our new lives!

_{I am scheduled January 20... eight days before my birthday... I am nervous and scared... I have a eight hour pre op appt Jan 4... I need to weight under 300 pds that day. Jan 6 I start my two week liquid diet, sheesh. Good Luck to each of you on your successful journey.}

what a great birthday gift you will have! you will be able to do it--good luck, we all have such exciting times ahead of us--change can make us freak a little but its gonna be the best thing we have ever done for ourselves, for once in my life I am putting my needs first, and I don't mean to sound selfish, but I think we all deserve it and I know my family deserves a more participatory wife and mom. Can ya tell I'm ramping up for this?? Can't wait....

I'm scheduled January 18th, too!!!! good luck!!!
