Topic: RE: Jan. 5th is my big day!
Welcome and congrats on getting your date. I know how you are feeling. I think we are all nervous but excited at the same time. I will pray for you that everything goes well and you have a speedy recovery. You might want to go on the RNY board and ask them what to expect and how they got through everything since most of them have already been through this whole thing.
Best wishes,
Candie

Topic: January 5th: Year of Jubilee! begins
My surgery is scheduled for January 5th. I am sure this is the right thing to do. I am a little nervous. I saw my surgeon on Friday, Dec. 19th. I feel very confident that God led me to him.
I'm doing this for my two sons ages three and five, and for my health. I know losing this weight will decrease if not cause my Pseudo Tumor Cerebri to disappear completely.
Here's to taking hold of all of God's promises for my life and my family.
I will pray for all of you having surgery this month.
Love, Bobbi

Congratulations on getting a date. I'm scheduled for the day before you. Do you have to do the two week pre-op liquid diet? The days seem to move faster the closer it gets.
Best of Luck
Hugs,
