I go in July 18 & I'm feeling almost every emotion at this point I'm happy, excited, anxious, scared, & super nervous! They didn't really give me much of a pre op diet to follow but, I do have to replace 1 meal a day with whey protein isolate shakes which tastes as if it's something you are NOT supposed to drink YUK I mean it's not impossible to drink but, only because I have to I'm not loving it but, I'm quite sure I will love when I start seeing a difference in how I feel and how I look.....

Yay!! Congrats!!!! How long was the waiting period for you to obtain your date? I am still waiting and am becoming extremely frustrated!!!! I thought the process would be a bit quicker. Ugh.

Congrats on the date!!!!!

Chrissym it's taken me almost a year so far. It's been quite frustrating but it will be worth it once you have the date. And then once those pounds start coming off you will see it was worth it. I too do not have an official date yet. Still working on my last couple of clearances.

OMG!!! Why so long? That's INSANE!!!!

Yes it does feel like a long process but, like u said it is definitely worth it I can imagine it would be really frustrating waiting almost a year but, I just look at it like its a start into a new life I been waiting almost all my life to lose all my weight what's a few more months or couple of years to get to my goal weight?! Good luck to u on the rest of your journey!

Congrats, it will go fast and you will be here with us on the loser bench!

Chrissym it's taking so long because I had to go for the 6 months of checkins with my dr then I had to wait for my insurance company to authorize the surgery before I could even start the clearances. Now that I have the authorization things are moving along very quickly. I will hopefully have a date within the next couple of weeks.

Congrats' date=' it will go fast and you will be here with us on the loser bench![/quote']

Thank u I'm looking forward to being there!
