hello i'm new to all of this and im haveing my surgery nov 30,2007 ihave all the feeling everyone has scared and i cant wait, all in one it helps just to read everyone else feelings. :clap2:

Hi!!!

My surgery is December 17th and I feel the exact same way as you.... excited... scares.. a bit intimated..... hoping I don't ruin Christmas.... ya know what we'll both DO AWESOME!!!!!! Keep me posted!

I am with you... My date is 11/6. I cant wait. Started my 2 week pre op diet today! :mad:

Hi Diva... how goes the pre-op diet?

Well, it is lunch time and I am not exactly looking at my Slim Fast with great desire. I am thinking of a sub... but I will get thru the next 14 days looking at the photo of me at 150lbs one day at a time. I can do anything for two weeks!

It worries me that I have my surgery date BEFORE they have my insurance approval. I fell like I will go thru the next two week starving only to get the date changed to late December! Has anyone else has a scheduled date only to be denied by insurance and having to tart all over again with the pre op diet?

thank you for the wonderful words and i wish only the best for you. stay in contact will do the same
