Got a date! July 27th!!!



Recommended Posts

Just had my last appointment with my surgeon and I will be having my surgery on July 27th. It all just got really real. I'm very nervous and excited at the same time. Anyone else have the same date or one close to it?

I know how you feel. Once I got my date, I started getting some major anxiety. I've been working towards it since November

I started the process in January. Very nervous also. I never did as I was told to start logging my food, with the exception of a few weeks.

I'm July 27! I agree, when they called with the date I sat up straight and all of the sudden it was real. 4 weeks from tomorrow life changes forever!

Yay I'm so glad I found someone with the same date. Where are you located?

Where in San Diego did you live? I've lived here since I was 8 (I'm 42). I've only been to Washington state twice, but it was lovely both times!

I lived I La Jolla. I moved down there after high school to go to college. I'm 32 years old. Washington state is beautiful in the summer, but the rain in the winter gets really old. We are moving back to the Sacramento area around the end of the year. I love San Diego! My aunt and uncle live there (by USD) and we are trying to plan a trip later this year

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
