Yikes. I got a call yesterday with a surgery date. I didn't even know the info had been sent in, and frankly I haven't completed all of my stuff. I never met with the psychologist (hoping I won't have to) the nutritionist (will get to it shortly after, I think) etc. It really freaked me out. I am scheduled for August 31st.

I am afraid of surgeries and have never had one. My dog died from the anesthesia, though. I'll start the two week diet on Monday, but am wondering which piece prepares the liver. Is it the cutting out of fats or carbs? I am thinking that tomato sandwiches on white bread is the choice for the weekend. Maybe even buy some real mayo. Pathetic, huh??

WOW!! Congrats on the early approval! I would have loved to have had my file sent in without my knowledge and get a call. That way I wasnt playing the "waiting" game like I am now. To be honest, I dont even know if they sent in my file. They were supposed to do it last week. Best of luck on your journey to the "new" you!!!! Keep us updated on your progress!!:thumbup:

Thanks. I know that I am lucky. I just hadn't prepared my poor brain for it yet. It was one of those "somewhere in the future" things. Thus I have been up since midnight with a migraine reading and thinking. It was good for me. It has settled my heart on the decision. I do have to prep the kids a bit earlier than i expected. they knew it was a possibility, but my middle one is worried about it.

duh...i am in my own selfish world tonight...good thoughts to you and your paperwork. hope it all works out without issue!
