Hello all! I've been reading the forum for the past couple of months' date=' thank you all for the great advice and sharing your experiences. It's been very helpful and informative! I met with the surgeon a week ago today, my surgery date is June 26. Anyone else for June?[/quote']

I am going on June 10th. I am so excited to start this new chapter! A little nervous too because my EKG came back abnormal. I have to go see a cardiologist tomorrow. My surgeon said he wasn't too worried about it but I should go see the other Dr anyway. So I will and hope it doesn't push back my surgery date!

Oh my gosh I had the same thing. They put me out today for the EGD and when I woke up they said I need to be cleared by the Cardiologist. Scary! Let us know how it turns out. I don't have my Cardiologist appt yet.

Well tomorrow is the big day! I have to be there at 11:00 am. The nurse told me they are doing 5 tomorrow. 3 of us are spending the night because of sleep apnea. So I stopped eating at 6 pushing liquids until midnight and then nothing not even Water until surgery. I am going to be really thirsty and dry mouth going that long. I am nervous. Do I have everything ready. It's still so unreal. So hoping that this is the answer. Thanks for the support I hear from all of you,

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
