I just saw my surgeon and he gave me my date and barring any insurance problems I will be having the surgery on June 24th. :sad: I got all my instructions from the nurse and was told I need to stay overnight and start the liquid diet on the 14th. I have never had surgery or stayed overnight in a hospital so I'm excited and crapping my pants at the same time. :cursing: I'll update this thread as much as possible for anyone interested. Wish me luck!

Here is my intro thread with more background info.
