Hello I was wondering If anyone has October Surgery dates and how are you feeling about it being right around the corner and how are u spendng your time now that the hard part is over ur approved and have your date

Aah! One week and I'll be loaded up in the car' date=' making the 3 hour trip to the hospital to get this new life on the way! I just can't believe the whole process took exactly 30 days from start to finish...its insane! I'm getting super anxious and almost tempted to take the rest of the week off work! Sending good ju ju to all those starting a new life this week! Your stories keep me motivated![/quote']

I am going in on the 8th as well...I am ready to get off the muscle milk..it has started leaving a thick coating in my mouth ( during the night) It is awful to wake up to. But anywho..I'm ready...nervous but ready! I have everything packed except for my IPad and chapstick. Good luck to all of you...will be checking posts to find out how everyone is doing. God Bless You!

Good luck everyone! Can't wait to hear how you are feeling and congrats on crossing over to your new and healthy life!

I have my preadmission testing and my nutrition class today. It's all becoming real now. Less than 2 weeks til my surgery date!

10 days til GO TIME for me and counting. It's getting closer and closer! Good luck to everyone going today for surgery!!

**I had a small victory this morning, it's jeans day at work and I was going thru my closet and found a pair of jeans a size smaller than my usual, I tried them on for kicks and they fit! I wore them to work. Good way to start off my Friday.

3 days to go

Pre-op appt Monday. I am getting so anxious! I told my hubby I am cooking steak this weekend because its going to be a long time before I get to savor that again! Lol. Best wishes to the upcoming surgeries! 13 days and I will be under the knife at this time! Woot woot

Anne-Cuse- my pre op is Monday too with surgery on the 18th! Soo close! Enjoy your steak!

We are surgery buddies. I'm on the 18th as well. Good luck!

Four days! I'm so nervous. Any advice to calm my nerves?! Also what are you doing to prepare?

Tp100 where are you??? I hope everything is going fine. Haven't heard from you since your surgery.

I think it's cute and unless it's something horribly inappropriate, there's no such thing as not appropriate! Good luck with everything...

Well my revision surgery from band to by pass is 15th October 2012! Nearly done the first week of pre-op diet second time around seems a lot easier, but wasn't nervous at all last 3 ops yet really really nervous this time which is not like me at all. Anyone one else in the same boat as me?

Yep I'm band to bypass on oct10 I'm kinda freaked at the prospect of being in the hospital overnight since all my other surgeries were outpatient but otherwise I think my anxiety is pretty low
