Well so sorry ladies I will no longer be an October surgery. Got my date today and they're doing it on wed. Sept. 25th. Way sooner than I expected. good luck to you all in October!

Wow! Less than a week away. Good luck!

I had my nutrition class Thursday. WOW! So much stuff to take in! The Dr told us to take notes, I think I was the only one that did lol. I wanted to make sure i didnt miss anything. I had so much on my mind that I only slept 2 hours that night.

Insurance approved me in 48 hours and they called yesterday with a surgery date of Oct 11. I'm definitely nervous buy very excited. I go Monday for a physical with the surgeon and go back Tuesday for my endoscopy. Then my 2 week pre-op diet of 2 shakes and a sensible dinner.

I'm excited about having it in October. I thought i would be in November. I should be well enough to enjoy some Black Friday shopping! I would be more upset missing Black Friday shopping than I would be missing Thanksgiving dinner! LOL

Congrats to all the Oct losers!

Thank you ladies! :-)

My surgery date is 8 Oct. Two week liquid diet starts Tues .

I am not sure if my Surgery will be in October, but my colonoscopy and endoscopy is October 2nd, and my surgeon usually does those a few weeks before the surgery. I am exited and nervous at the same time. This will be life changing, I lost 16 pounds so far since June 29... and I seen the changes, Imagine when I loose ALL that weight.

Yesterday it became official. October 21st WOOOHOOOO. Start my pre-op diet on the 7th. Wow its been a long 6 months getting here!!! How is everyone else doing????
These are my dates too. It's getting pretty close and time is flying.

All in all it took me 3 months and 4 days from the initial seminar to surgery date. My 10 day pre op diet starts tomorrow

I'm 14 Oct' date=' on the other side of the world to most of you but will def be checking in to share, support and get inspiration from all other October buddies here.[/quote']

Another October op here...28th!

Skin where you based!
