I am so excited I can't stand it!!! Best of luck to everyone!

Congrats I have the same date. I wanted to shout it from the rooftops then I realized I haven't told many people and don't want to tell anyone else. So I sit online reading posts and thinking about the excitement and fear that I have.

Congrats!! Mine is May 1!!!! Im so excited and ready! Im not scared or nervous just anxious!!

I haven't told many people either. My immediate family knows, one friend, and my boss. Everyone else will see our results soon enough! Yay! Good Luck!

I'm the same way- just excited for it to get here. I see you have Dr. Foote... are you having surgery in Grand Rapids? I'm goign through Mclaren in Petoskey and having Dr. Baker. I've tried a few times to enter his name onto my profile, but the darn thing just won't save! Good luck to you too- I'd love to keep up with both of you!

So I finally told my boss I didn't tell him why just that I needed to have a procedure done. He is very uneasy with female stuff so I just said its a female issue. I know total cop out lol but he has a big mouth and will blab to the world. I've been feeling so nervous this last week. I even started researching other hospitals to make sure I want to stick with my surgeon. Ugh I'm using Barix Clinics in Langhorne and have heard nothing but amazing feedback on them. But they are not a bariatric center of excellence....and I started feeling nervous about not being in a full on hospital.

Do what you need to in order to feel comfortable. This is a big surgery! Research and ask lots of questions. I don't blame you for using that cop out. I work in an office full of big mouthed opinionated women- and have male bosses. I told my boss , and I am going to need to speak to the owner. (Ugh, surgery is 2 wks before my anniversary/more vaca days!) My mom doesnt think he'll ask... But I do. He has all daughters so I dont think female issues will scare him. I do worry though bc he has a big mouth too. Oh well. Everybody is going to realize something was done when we start dropping weight so fast!!! Woohoo! :-)

Lol exactly. I can't wait to walk into the office after 6 weeks post op down a few pounds. From what I read at 6 weeks I should be down about 50 lbs at least if I follow all rules which I intend to do! A fellow sleeved told her boss and co-workers that she had a cyst on her stomach and had to have it removed. I've also heard folks say they had appendix out or gallbladder removed but then you have to remember you said it. LoL
