TOMORROW IS THE BIG DAY!

So tomorrow is surgery day and the start of my new beginning. [emoji1] I am so so so nervous but I know that it is going to be so worth it in the end. [emoji7] I am happy to be doing this not only for myself and my health but for my child. Idk I am scared, nervous, anxious, excited, happy, just so many emotions mixed in one. Goodluck to anyone whose date is tomorrow also. I wish you the best!

Congratulations. I'm so excited for you and a little envious. Lol

I hope you continue to post about your journey. I'm hoping to have my sleeve done first part of December. Hope your recovery is a smooth one. Best wishes for you.

Thank you @@kimberb ........ it will happen when it is supposed to happen. What all are you waiting for to get the surgery?

My surgery goal weight is 227. My scale reads 224.2. I had to track my food and exercise. Have done that since Sept 1.

Thursday 11/4 I have a phone call consult with the NUT. She needs to clear me for surgery. Fingers crossed.

I have a phone consult with psychologist on 11/17. She asked me to attend a Mindful Eating class for 5 weeks and no change to my depression or anxiety meds. My last class is the 16th. No change in meds.

So I'm really hoping to be cleared for surgery on the 17th.

My surgeon said surgery is usually 1-2 weeks after clearance.

If all goes according to plan (knock on wood) I should have surgery around 12/1.

Which is not really all that much time from starting to surgery. 3 months.

Hope you are doing well.
