I am also scheduled for El Cinco de mayo. My pre-op is the 30th and the nervous excitement is already kicking in. I hope we all keep up with each other's progress and encourage when needed.

Hi Allison, My surgery date is May 12th and I start my preop diet May 2nd. I am very excited about my surgery. Until I found this website I was very nervous and doubtful, but after connecting with the folks here I am so uplifted and ready to do this. I also wanted to tell you that I love the area where you live. I am an RN and did some travel nursing in Cape Cod in the fall of 2002. I still have wonder memories of the time I spent there. I worked in surgery at Cape Cod Hospital in Hyanis and I lived in Hyanis Port. I always had 3 day weekends so I went all over New England. I went back in 2005 and stayed on Nantucket for a week and then revisted some of the places I loved. I loved Boston for all the culture and history. Well, good luck on your journey. Becky

Thanks Becky! Yeah I love living here, its perfect, right near the cape, right near Providence and Boston, 4 hours to NYC, about an hour to the mountains, everythings right here! Where do you love now??? Nantucket is beautiful but I haven't been there in years! My friends and I want to take the ferry to either of the islands this summer.

Hi Allison, I live in Chico Calif and have worked in the local hospital for many years. I took a little time off and did travel nursing and just fell in love with Cape Cod. I think I left a little piece of my heart there. I've been to both Nantucket and Martha's Vinyard and enjoyed both of them very much. There is a great book called Ahabs Daughter that takes place on Nantucket in the 1800's which if fun to read. I couldn't find that May thread you were talking about. I am still kind of new to the website and don't know my way around it too well. But lets keep in touch since our surgeries are so close. Well, I am off to work. Bye, Becky

Can't believe my banding date is almost here - FRIDAY!!!!

Started the process in July 2007 when I attended my first seminar and began the process. My date's with Dr. Chow from NJ Bariatrics at Univ. of Princeton Medical Center.

Can't wait for it to be over...can't sleep, clean house, work, or focus on anything else except what's ahead....a new me. Yeah!!!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
