Hey everyone! New here

I am getting ready to go to my pre-op class for gastric bypass surgery! I have a surgery date of November 17th, and I am super excited, but also a little nervous..

Does anyone else on here have a November surgery date?

Maybe we could help each other prepare for what lies ahead

I am so jealous of you guys that have your dates already. This waiting makes me more nervous????

Hi! My surgery date is November 19! Less than 3 weeks away! Yikes! I'm excited and nervous about it. Does anyone have any suggestions for things I need to get ready prior to surgery?

You spend a long time in limbo, then BAM, it's a few days away, Then you worry if your Pre Op dieting is doing the job, and am i really prepared for when I get home after the surgery, and on and on,,,,,,,,,,,,, This journey is certainly a rollercoaster ride of emotions.

I have been approved just waiting on my date. It will be in November!

Got my date! November 25th! Woo-hoo! EGD on the 20th first though. Can't wait to join the losers bench.

November 4th, 7:00 am in Alma, Mi. with Dr. Cudjoe performing my sleeve.

Good luck to those having surgery this week!

Hi All,

My surgery is 11/12 and I started the 2 week liquid diet on 10/29. So far I am not nervous - just focusing on one Soup day at a time. Good luck to everyone who is having surgery this month!!!

Hi Elisha. I'm Jeffrey or "NewJeffrey". My surgery is tomorrow (November 4th.). Welcome to the November group!!!

Thanks "NewJeffrey!" I will send all of my best thoughts and prayers your way that all goes perfect tomorrow.

Good luck tomorrow, NewJeffrey! I'll be sending prayers and positive energy your way.

My surgery is 11/19. I'm feeling nervous...but I'm not worried about the operation...just the life changes. I know in my heart I can stick to all the eating/drinking rules, just some self-doubt creeping in.

Good luck tomorrow, NewJeffrey! I'll be sending prayers and positive energy your way.

diyana we will hold each other accountable. We've come too far to mess up now. Looking forward to hearing about all of the obstacles you conquer over the next year!!

Thanks everybody for the good thoughts for tomorrow. I just found out that I check in at 10:15am tomorrow morning. NewJeffrey will nit just be a user name, but a reality in my life!!! :-)

Good luck Greggroovy, Viktoryalynne, and NewJeffrey on your surgery tomorrow. I pray that you have a great surgery and that the surgeon has steady hands. Praying also for a speedy recovery. Best of luck. You will be in my thoughts tomorrow.
