Happy early Birthday and congratulations on getting started with the process.

It will happen when it is meant to happen. Patience and polite persistence will get you to your goal, but it does take some time to get through all of the pre-op assessments.

Best of luck and keep us posted on how you are doing.

Happy early birthday. I am in the beginning stages too. Just had to have an UGI and I am in range if surgery weight. Anxious and nervous. How about you?

My insurance requires 6 months of classes, so won't be done with that until June 2nd. Hoping for early July surgery, but my 50th bday is May 24th. Oh well it will be a belated gift to myself!

I feel nervous as well. My biggest concern is living with a normal person when I cook 100 percent of meals.

I cook 100 percent of the meals here too. I love to cook
