Hi everyone!

Just came back from doctor's office and have a October 28th surgery date for Gastric Bypass. This is it, the high diving platform. Knees are trembling.

Anyone else in October? Let's keep in touch as we support each other. We have the pre-op diet and getting mentally ready for this.

LET'S DO IT!

Karen I am so happy for you, I can't want to join you on the loser bench !!

Counting down til October 31 here!

DaronB....it'll be here before you know it! Congrats!

Superbariatricbabe...I was told to walk as tolerated at first. I'm not sure what others have been told. I do know that my doc said 8 weeks out and I can start light weights as well as walking. Hope this helps!

@@Sherrib4health, thanks! October is a busy month, so, I'm expecting (and hoping) it zips by! I go on a cruise next week, so, it kind of works out as one final hoorah! lol!

@"DaronB" So cool you're going on a cruise! I hope you have a wonderful time. I've been on 2 and loved both of them!

I wish I knew how @ signs worked on here! LOL

Hello good folks: I got my date today!! October 15!! It hasn't yet hit me that I have two weeks to go!!

@@DaronB did the @ sign work? LOL

It did! Woohoo! LOL. I definitely need to get to bed! Again...good luck to all the 10/2's!

Karen glad to hear surgery went well. Beni love the use of the term Gladiator that's exactly how I feel right now during PreOp preparing myself for the long haul to win this longtime battle. I spent the day cleaning out the room that will be my oasis Post Surgery. It's amazing how much stuff you collect put in a of and then never look at it. I feel like I'am clearing out all the baggage preparing myself to kick start my healthier life. 12 days to go. Good luck to all of the October Sleevers!

Awesome @@OnePhatWhoDat!

My pics. Excuse the hair and if it's sideways I don't know how to change it.

Okay so it ate my post. I'm too tired to repost it. Needless to say I measured and weighed myself for future reference. I won't be on in the morning because they don't want my belongings in when I first get there. My husband will be bringing them to me when he gets off work after 2:30pm cst. No sleep for me tonight too nervous.
