What a week! Crazy! But now I'm bummed. While I'm very excited about getting sleeved I really thought it would be in June. Now they tell me they are already scheduling for July. IF I'm lucky I'll get in on the tail end of July. I REALLY don't want the begining of August because I'm a teacher and have all sorts of inservices to go to during that time..... AND I now I realize that one pair of shorts is so not gonna cut it for the next 2 months....

Sorry for the vent, but I really want to get this new phase of my life started. )

Take a deep breath and try to relax. It is what it is and you may not be able to change it. I was sleeved last year in July and I'm 7 lbs away from goal. Try to look forward to the end result. This is major surgery and you will find every step of this process is for a reason. Your hard work has only begun and you will always have to work at eating what's right the rest of your life. Have fun with this I did! Good luck!

Thanks Snow!

I feel your pain! I was originally may 17. Found out I have ulcers so now I am July 17. Hoping it stays on that date! We can hope together!

As a fellow teacher, I totally understand the push to get that date all squared away for summertime! I'm probably going to be a July sleever too, unless I end up having to wait longer than anticipated for insurance clearance. *fingers crossed*

I'm itching to get my date set in stone, too, but in the meanwhile, I just keep planning for success after the procedure. Got my vitamins, got a protein powder that I've been incorporating into my daily diet, and so far I've lost 10 pounds. I'm trying to keep my focus on things that I can control, while I wait for The Date to be finalized.

It'll get here, and then we'll really be headed for success!

OMG!!!!!! I just got approval today and I'm having surgery this FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations! You got your wish!!

I know!!!!! I'm amazed! The other thing is I had lost the diamond in my wedding ring 2 weeks ago.... I found it this morning on my carpet that had been vacuumed, twice! :0)

Karma is loving you right now! Woohoo!
