Got a Date!!!!
Well I sat and waited a week with no word. So I emailed and asked how it was going.... BOOYa, she said I have scheduled you for December 4th. OMG I was excited but ready to cry and scared but happy. All sorts of emotions overcame me. Now it is getting pre op in tomorrow then visit with surgeon and dietician on Monday. Then wait on surgery. I have started a checklist of things to do. Very nervous. I have some issues with clotting and that makes it scary. I have been told it will be fine and they will have it under control for this. I am just sitting thinking of all sorts of things...... any advice and get ready tips out there would be welcomed. Trying to go as liquid as can now to prepare for when I have too. No Thanksgiving meal for me this year... lol. You know the hardest thing for me is to imagine myself thinner. It seems like it is impossible to ever happen.

Congrats!!!!! I just found out Monday that I was approved and my surgery date is Dec. 2nd. Go for pre op on the 19th. I am so excited but nervous too. No Thanksgiving meal for me either but I am happy to give it up. LOL
"The time has come," the Walrus said,
"to talk of many things,
of shoes and ships and sealing wax,
of cabbages and kings,
and why the sea is boiling hot,
and whether pigs have wings"
And now you've got your surgery date,
and that is why you sing!
Apologies to Lewis Carroll
If it feels good, do it! And if it smells good, eat it!
Looks like there will be a bunch of sleeved in Dec. One of my friends is being done on the 2nd and I will be done on the 3rd! Putting together my To Do list to be sure that afterwards I can just focus on me! I just have to drink clear liquids for 24 hours before surgery. My program does not do the 2 week liquid diet. We do have to work on loosing weight before surgery eating healthy, low carb meals. I am so excited. Next year at this time I will have a body that is healthy!
