Ugh another date change... Trying to stay positive. January 12th now.

As long as it gets done!!! You're on your way!!!

So my sleep study went too well. Well enough that I don't have sleep apnea. Now I have an apt at the beginning of the new year with the surgeon to see if we can apply to my insurance with the osteoarthritis only. Crossing my fingers so we can. Already paid for the filing of the psych eval plus two consults with the behavior therapist. $190 down.

Are you nervous or excited? At this point I am as excited as a lion with a steak, but I'm sure as the date approaches I'll get more nervous! Happy New Year!

@katladee I love the Pointer Sisters and I am scheduled for Jan 26th also!

So far I am not super nervous because I have to have a heart scan on Jan 4th so that my cardiologist will release me. Because of this I am trying to stay calm, but the time is moving quickly and I get a little more excited each day.

[katladee 156]

Good luck with your scan! Thank goodness my testing is all done. Tomorrow I finally see the surgeon who will actually be doing the sugery, and he'll give me the dates for the pre-op clear liquid diet. I dread that! I have my pre-surgery bloodwork and chest xray on the 19th.

Hello Everybody!

My surgery date is 1/6/2016. I am suffering on Opifast through the holidays right now with my pre-surgery diet. It bloats me, gives me a headache and leaves me pining for the most modest of real foods.

Its been a long road to get here though so not giving up now. It took me longer than the insurance company's mandated six months to get through all the medical clearances. After that, I needed thyroid surgery which pushed me back again. So finally in 2016 it going to happen. New year- new me!

My family knows I'm doing it but not too many others. At this point its kind of a "need to know", basis, lol. I'm going to tell people later though. My aunt had the gastic bypass and she swears it saved her life. She encouraged me to have this surgery and I hope I can be as successful as she has been

Pre-op take 2 begins Tuesday... Thankfully the holidays are over (food wise) now to get the house in order for when I have the surgery good luck everyone

This is my first post. I am scheduled for Jan. 4th. I'm soooo excited, but I feel like I may be coming down with a cold. I am trying to find the best way to beat it so I don't have to reschedule my surgery! I'm also getting nervous about making sure I do everything the right way after surgery (eating the right things at the right times and taking the supplements when I'm supposed to). I wish all of you the best on your weight loss journey in the new year!!!!
