    Congratulations. Be patient because the journey can seem like it is never ending. I finally finished all my requirements and have received my surgery date.

    I chose the RNY because I have GERD and it's the best procedure for patients with reflux. Plus I figured since I was doing it, I want the classic procedure.

Thank you so much. I'm sure I'm gonna have lots of questions. I'm waiting on the bariatric coordinator to call me with my date. I'm sure I have to go on the 2 week diet and I pray I get through it.

The two week diet is a snap after the first couple days. Congrats! This is a super exciting time. ^_^
