I cant wait to be there either! I can't sleep anymore, all I do us lay awake and think about it!! When did you first start this entire process? wondering how long it took you to get a date? my first appointment was May 2, and i got my date June 20. Insurance approved it 4 days later! i cant believe how quick it all went for me!Keep me posted how everything goes! I'm glad I met someone who has the same dates as I do!! Good luck and keep in touch! Carrieann

I started with my seminar in January and my intake appointment in Late January. I made the decision to this in December. I had to do a 3 month supervised diet and then get a cardiology clearance (my cardiologist is über careful so I had a stress test, nuclear stress test and echo on top of the EKG the surgeon wanted. That's a good thing, but it added a month to my wait time. But now I have the date and time (I check in at 7:30 on the 15th and hit the OR at 9:30). I am sure the next two weeks will fly by! I have started dreaming about why I will look like and what I will do when I lose 85-90 pounds. :).

I have my first shake sitting by me. Since I don't have to do full liquids I am starting today instead of next week. Hopefully I will lose a few more pounds this way. :)

That's awesome! I check in at 8:00 and hit the OR at 10:00!! Not looking forward to recovery! But I know I'm doing this for a good reason! I can't wait to be about 110-120 pounds lighter!!

Definitely! I like knowing others will be with me in spirit the day of surgery.

In other news I went ahead and started my pre-op diet today. Oh my Lord, the headache! On the bright side I get to have grilled chicken and green Beans in a couple hours. Hopefully that will help.

My surgeon uses different pre-ops based on BMi. He said I could have 1 lean high Protein meal a day up until the day before. Then just Clear Liquids. :)

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
