Just got my date today, 06/18/18. I’m partially excited, and also terrified. I’m very happy to have a date to work towards and get everything in a row, because the unknown was driving me crazy!

Hahaha! You’re too funny!! Thank you! Yeah I’m really going to focus on tracking, getting in protein, and not eating and drinking at the same time. Horrible habit to break. You’ll be here soon enough! [emoji5]

How about now? [emoji23]

I'm scheduled for June 11th so I'm a week ahead of you. I'm nervous but excited. I'm glad to have another person on the same journey as me.

Hi Ladies!! I'm with y'all and my surgery is scheduled for June 7th!! If I thought the qualification checklist was brutal, this pre-op checklist is the same!! Do you ladies have to watch more videos and take a pre-and post-op nutrition class? I'm nervous about the diet which I start mine May 24th!

Tentatively, I will have a June surgery, but not 100% yet. I have to pass my Psych Eval & my Endoscopy. Surgeon said if all of that is a-okay, then it'll be June.

I’m in the process not sure when my surgery is yet.

My surgery is scheduled for June 7th too. Counting the days

And if any of you feel like doing missionary work, I'm over with the RnYers waiting and waiting also. The next chapter in the Frust8 Saga takes place May 24th when I have my trifecta appointment with nurse practioner Valerie, the dietician and the case manager, that day they set up a care plan tailored to me and I hope things start moving really fast. I want to be a Junie-Roomie with all of you. Keep getting ready and I'll do the same!???

I'm in the process too!!

Congrats CynthiaAnnP!! How are you passing the time? My doctor gave me some other stuff to do, and now that it's done I feel like a nervous ball of energy and will be for the next month! Are you getting the sleeve, bypass, or lapband?

Congrats Jenpa!! Are you excited? The countdown is on, and hopefully the month of May flies by! Are you stocking up for your liquid diet?

I'm glad there will be someone a week before me. I have anxiety anyway so I'm sure this last month will be really hard. I'm also a teacher so I'll be frazzled from the end of the school year. LOL

I'm trying to get into a good routine of eating better. I started yesterday and did good until last night. Ugh. This morning I felt really bad and so I ate a bunch of protein stuff and it helped me feel better. I'm a borderline diabetic, but no meds.

No more sodas for me. I am trying really hard to cut out snack between meals. My hard thing is what to cook / eat.

I'm a teacher so I guess I need to pack my lunch each day. Any suggestions? Then at night, my family of four has such diverse tastes and I know they won't like anything I make. I'm stressed about that.
