I got a call from the surgical coordinator THIS MORNING who said I do not have to wait to schedule anymore AND she is going to try to schedule the pre-op stuff in the same day as my final NUT appt! I am so HAPPY!!!!!

I went from waiting to having a surgery date in 19 days! Sooooooo much to do.

I am so happy & excited for all

of us !!

It's hard to believe the day is nearly here. I've been waiting since just before Thanksgiving! 18 hours from now they wheel me in! Bon chance, everyone!

I have to be at the hospital in 14 hours from now. I'm so ready. I'm hoping for a speedy procedure and a speedy bounce back. My doc says he'll take great care of me. Good luck to everyone.

Almost ready to head out to the hospital. I have everything I need. Can't believe how slowly and yet how quickly this day has come! I really can't believe it's here. I feel really calm and happy. Best of luck to all the 8/17 sleevers!

Good morning everyone. Same here Margie. I just showered and dressed and my hospital bag is by the door waiting to head out. Good luck to all! God bless!

Wake up call!!! Today's the day!!!

I got moved from having to be there at 5a to being there at 9a, but I still can't sleep anyway!

"The time has come!" the walrus said.

Congratulations to you all! Keep us posted!

Today is the big day good luck .. Praying for a complication free surgery and a speedy recovery ????????????

Hi ladies. I am now officially post op !! Feeling way better than I expected. I am very tired but I'm comfortable and relaxed. Surgery went well and the hospital staff is awesome !! Hope all of us 8/17 sleevers are doing well. Check in when you can ????

Still feeling really good but my heart rate is up so that has me a little worried. My hubby & the kids just left and now I am going to try and get a nap in before my next walk. I'll will post again in the morning ????
