I got my date today. I was really hoping it would be in December or early January. But at least the date has my lucky number in it! January 18th I will be sleeved. So glad it's finally happening.

Good luck!

Omg I'm so happy for you. My surgery is on the 12th and. I'm beyond psyched!

Congrats! When I saw your headline, I was sorta confused for a minute, cuz I was like...dayum! Does her husband know she has a date with someone? ROFLMAO!!!! Context is everything!

So excited for you.

Congrats! I remember how excited I was when I finally had a date. Best of luck to you.

Congratulations and good luck on your surgery. If you haven't already done these, I would recommend the following:

1. Take a good before photograph of yourself, so that you have something to compare to after surgery. Many times we are blind to our obesity. We do not see ourselves. Therefore when the weight begins to drop off rather dramatically, we question if this is really happening. Photographs are a good visualization of our success. Many people carry a before and after photo with them, just to remind themselves of their success.
2. Walk 30 minutes each day, every day until surgery (or equivalent exercise). Walking helps the recovery process go smoothly and minimized the pain levels from surgery.
3. Wean yourself from caffeine and carbonated beverages now. After I gave up my 6 diet coke a day habit, I suffered from a week of severe withdrawal syndrome consisting of severe headaches and body aches. I was miserable. You don't want to combine the effects of caffeine withdrawal with the effects of surgery.

Congratulations! The time will fly by!
