I have a date and I'm approved!!! Need more support

I've had a date since Nov. 26, but just found out yesterday I'm approved! I did a happy dance. I'ts finally gonna happen. I'm so nervous though. A lot of my friends and family keep warning me of the dangers, and say I shouldn't be doing this. I've worked to hard to get here, and I AM going through with this. Just wish I had a little more support. I've been eating more, as if I'll never be able to eat again. Need to get that under control. I still can't wait, YAHOO!!!!!

Congratulations on getting a date. I'm eating quite a bit, too. We'll be with you in spirit. Have you talked to people on your state messageboard? I've found that they are a good support even if they can't be there in person. And sometimes they ARE there in person. Jeanie in MO DS 02/11/05 "Duodenal Switch: My New Beginning"
