I sent mine in for jan 17th about two months ago. They can't forget about me cause I don't let them. I email them all the time with one question or another. Go ahead send ur deposit to hold ur date. Then it will seem that much more real. And you are one step closer to you new life.

Lol I know! I'm always sending them questions! I've talked to about 5 different coordinators so far just trying to figure out who I wanna go with. I know it's not really a big deal who the actual coordinator is because I'm ending up with the same surgeon anyway. I think I'm just wanting this experience to be pleasant overall. I have panic attacks and bad anxiety, and all it would take is one little bad thing to happen and I would freak! Haha

Lol then that's one more reason to go ahead and send in your deposit. Then you will feel like you can't back out.

Leap of faith. Nothing ventured, nothing gained... Or in our case, lost. ;-)

Thanks. That's what I told my husband too, I just need to do it cuz it'll just feel that much more real.

I made my deposit today for 2/21/13. Now that it is done, I thought I would feel better but now I am really nervous. As far as you worried about your deposit, I have my reciept of deposit and their confirmation (and a copy because I am neurotic) for reference!

18 1/2 weeks to go! I hope this goes faster than I think it is.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
