I know there are a few other March 27th surgeries and I would love to get to know you guys. I feel disconnected from anyone and there are a few different march threads I can’t tell which one will stick so I decided to start one for the 27th people.

My name isTracy, I live in Nashville and my next appointment for preop is March 5th. I’m excited and nervous at the same time and I will believe all of this really happened when I wake up from anesthesia and they told me my bypass is complete.

I am married with 2 kids.

Hello! Not a 3/27 but shortly before. My surgery date is 3/19. My pre-op appt is 3/1. I live in Central Florida and am married with two kids.

I am anxious for all things medical. Excited and scared out of my mind.

I am not 3/27 but only 2 days after you on 3/29. I wasn’t nervous before I got my surgery date but now that I have it nerves are setting in. The surgery itself doesn’t make me nervous I just have thoughts of “what if it doesn’t work”

Thx for introducing yourselves. I got crazy nervous after I got my date too Poppyseed but it’s calmed down. Sounds like we are in the place right now!!

I am trying to relax, I just want it over with at this point haha

Hi, Tracy, I'm having bypass on March 27th, too! My name is Sarah and I live in Connecticut. I just turned 57, am 5' 3, weigh about 235 and am hoping to lose 100 lbs at least, but getting healthy for me is more important than the number on the scale. I have a bunch of comorbidities. Thanks for starting this thread.

Nice! I wish you all the best with your surgery.

I love knowing people by name, thx for introducing yourselves. I’m 49 so right between you guys.

I decided to start practicing not drinking 30 minutes before/during/after meals. I told my nutritionist that and chewing slowly are going to be hard for me to get used to.

I’m trying to think of things that will have to change after surgery and get used to them now.

Angie, I get an error when I try to type a name into DM. If you DM I will respond. I think the app has a glitch
