Just Received The Best News!

  • Popular Post

Last week I received my surgery date, 8/28/12. I was a little bummed because I was hoping for it to be sooner... WELL, the coordinator just called and said there was an opening next week 8/14!

Luckily, I have been following the pre-op diet for a few weeks in hopes of this happening. I go tomorrow for my pre-op appointments and then I only have a week to wait.

I am so ready, so excited, and so grateful for this life changing opportunity that I just can't wait to get started.

Now excuse me while I get busy reading all of the great advice posted on this forum!

That is awesome! Congratulations!!

Good for you! Smart planning on your part to start pre-op diet early. Congratulations!

Congrats!! Great News, I've always heard of delayed dates this is the first date I have heard get moved up. Keep us informed and I am wishing you a safe and blessed Journey!! :D

an opening next week!

the fact that you got an earlier date is super wonderful., good sign ;)

not having time to worry as much is great, now you can be real excited, and of course maybe a little nervous too - all feelings are typical/normal

9 days before WLS, i was told dr needed to reschedule my WLS :angry:

i was so upset - it was a 3 week delay :(

good luck on WLS

speedy recovery

thank you, thank you! I am just so glad that (if all goes according to plan) that I will be able to get my kids to and from school at the end of August, instead of being in the hospital while they start. That was a big thing on my worry list!

Deana, that has to be so hard! I feel very lucky that I get to eat food (no fat, 1,000cal) up until Monday afternoon. We are having a bunch of out of state family coming over Sunday...and my family loves a sunday meal, this will be one last challenge for me.

We are so close to our date, it hardly seems real!

Take care

Congrats!

I just want the day to get here i look forward to keeping in touch and sharing our successes thanks
