Approved...and have a date!

Hello All,

I finally received the call today that I was approved and they gave me a surgery date of June 14th, less than two weeks away.  Tomorrow I start my all-liquid diet.  I'm not looking forward to it per se, but I'm not really intimidated by it either.  It'll be a pain, but a small price to pay for the beneift I'll be receiving.

Thanks for letting me join you all and for all the information you've imparted to me.  I'm thankful for all the lessons, both of what to do, and what not to do.

Thanks,

Danny 

Congratulation!

Time will fly, stay focused on your goal to be healthy

 Thanks...I'm very goal oriented and have lots of them.

Congrats!! It happened like that for me too. I had surgery two weeks after meeting the surgeon. I think the speed worked well for me, I didn't have too much time to think on things! These two weeks are going to fly by!

BTW: I LOVE your avatar! When I'm done losing I want something very similar tattooed on my back.

Take care and good luck!

Thanks!  I love the avatar too and it's a tattoo I want as well.  I was worried it would be a month out so the short wait was a really good surprise.

CONGRATS!  I still remember how I felt the day I got the call and then the date; you couln't have knocked the smile off my face.  Doing happy dance for you.

Yes, the next 2 weeks will not be the easiest and at times will seem to take forever, but you can do this.  You are a strong woman and you can do hard things.  Just keep your eyes on your prize and it will be over before you know.

Good luck and keep us posted

I've been smiling since.  And your post gave me a good laugh; I'm a man.  My avatar makes it kinda difficult to tell though.  :)

Thanks!

ooopp...well, I suppose you can do hard things too!     sorry about that...but I still did Happy Dance for you because getting that date is such a HUGE milestone.

Keep posting and let us know how you are doing, Danny!

Congratulations on your approval and surgery date!!!!  I know how exciting it is.  I got a tentative date today as well.  I can't stop thinking about it.  It will be here before you know it!!

Seriously exciting!! I'm happy for you, it's such a huge relief to have that final hurdle taken care of.

And I love your avatar! My hubby has it as a tattoo.
