I'm having my surgery Oct 5th my per op class is Sept 23rd. I'm getting super excited only thing that worries me is missing classes I just enrolled into two classes and they start the 14th I'll be missing 3 classes plus a whole week of surgery. Hoping my teachers will be okay and let me work it out so I don't fall behind or get knocked for missing class.

@@guyfrom315 and @@covarrubia911 Tomorrow is your day!!! I am soooo excited for both of you! I am sending so many positive thoughts your way. Your incredible journey is about to begin. Check in with us and let us know how you are doing as soon as you feel up to it! You've got this!!!

Will do. I'll be there at 5:15 am surgery 7:30 am.

Just an update: Had the hospital nurse call today to go over medical history. I have all pre-op labs and tests scheduled for Oct 5. These next few weeks are gonna fly by too fast. For the longest time I have been planning and all of a sudden I feel like I have nothing in place.

I feel the same way. Mine is next Tuesday. I've been waiting. Now I'm thinking I've still got so much to do! How did that happen?!

Got my alarm set for 3:00am. Leaving @ 4:00am surgery at 5:00am..I am so ready..text you after surgery..hope I fall asleep quickly...

Lying here in bed. Telling myself. Im just gonna read one more well wisher. Its so wonderful to know ..people you dont really know ...really do care.THANKFUL FOR ALL THE BEST WISHES .MY FRIENDS..

@@CHLOE12 I'm single, I live alone in Chicago where I take crowded buses and trains everyday, I love to go out to dinner and drinks. Every once in awhile, I freak out and think what if someone bumps my belly on the train and hurts my pouch?!? Silly things like that make me think WHAT AM I DOING?!? But then I remember how unhappy and unhealthy my weight has made me. We can do this!!!

I'm also from Chicago but I am getting the sleeve. Didn't realize this was a gastric bypass topic till after I posted. Good luck on your journey.

I'm getting the sleeve also I was going to do the RNY but my surgeon talked me out of it. It's for everyone not just RNY. I'm the one that started the post so I could connect to more people having surgery around the same time as me. My date is Oct 5th so this coming up monday.

Oct 26 counting the days!!!

Isn't it crazy @@Jenaenae84 that it's next week?!?!? I'm the 7th!

@@covarrubia911 I have heard of surgery sisters, I have heard of surgery brothers. We here on this thread are "surgery family" we are the October Surgery Family. I care and worry about each of my brothers and sisters and their success. Why??? Because that is what families do. They support one another.
