Is it too early to start an April thread? I didn't see one yet.

I'm scheduled for April 22. I still have to finish PCP clearance and psych then insurance approval but don't anticipate any problems. Once I started my appointments the excitement and anxiety kicked in. I started 6 month supervised diet in August....this used to seem so far away and like a vague idea but its so real now. My anxiety is double as my husband's date is march 18 and I worry a lot more about him than myself. How are all the other April folks doing?

I'm new here. Just found this today! My surgery date is April 30th!

Congrates

All is ok going to take walk soon

Great to hear that it went well.

Made it home, still pretty sore but much better than before. The gas is killer, taking the gas-x now that I am home. Want to lay down and sleep but don't see that happening because my bed is too tall. Epic fail. But, had a little cream of chicken soup and feeling alright. Going to take some pain meds and snooze in the lazy-z-boy before walking a bit more.

All girl I am happy for best of luck keep us posted

Glad to hear its moving forward for so many of us. Sorry to hear about the May 20th delay but keep your eyes on the date and make the best of the additional time to continue to commend yourself for making a good decision and just know that these things all happen at the "right" time even though we may not understand the delay. I was delayed a week too and I felt heartbroken but decided to start my liquid diet early so that I'd be in the beat possible condition for my new surgery date. Krystal glad to hear that you will be walking the halls soon! Our hospital has a check off board in the patient room that shows your progress towards the 30 laps that they wanted us to make every day. I was in the hospital 3 days and am doing well at home.

-26 lbs since I started my liquid diet. I'm in a bit of a stall this week cuz of liquid diet and 340-400 calorie intake per day. I think my body is pissed and thinks I'm starving it! Shhhhhh, I am but it's not supposed to notice!

Good luck to our Thursday group tomorrow!
