I am having RNY on 3/1 with Dr Evanson! I had my preop in Logansport! They were AWESOME! Nutrition class is next Thursday for me in Carmel! Good luck to you!
I will care for my body so that I can feel the pleasure of being fit & fully alive as I grow older.
Got the call this morning and scheduled my surgery. It's finally and really going to happen. I'm finally getting help for my terrible problem with my weight. I bought a book today called "This Year I Will!" It's awesome! It nails issues right on the head!
So, surgery is 3/1 and my big all day nutrition class is 2/21! Excited and scared!

CONGRATS! I am March 1st. Just found out today. I have been cutting down on carbs, but I go to the pre-op nutrition class next Thursday. No one has said anything about all liquids yet. But I have a delicious protein powder I will start using for two meals a day til I hear something else.

My date is March 1st and I am terrified of the recovery for the first couple of weeks. My 88 year old dad lives with us and I am his primary care taker. I tried to get him to go stay with my son, but he's not having it. (DS lives 90 miles away) Dad barely takes his medicines correctly when I help him with them, and I am so afraid I will be totally out of it and screw things all up. My DH isn't good with meds himself, so I am totally freaked out. Dad still has his own place, but he can't stay there alone for a week! He has a cat there that he/we go feed every other day. (She catches plenty of mice in the barn) I told him a friend could feed the cat while he stayed with DS, but he's not having it.
If it wasn't for that, I feel completely and totally happy and super excited! I'm a little nervous about the first week at home while DH and DD are at work and high school, but a friend will check on me.

Hey Guys, March is almost here! I'm curious, are you more excited or worried/scared? Right now I am totally excited and have no fear about the surgery or the recovery.
How do you guys feel?

Congrats on the date! I too am on the 6th and am getting more excited by the day. My pre-op liquid diet starts the 24th and right now it doesn't worry me.
I thought everything was done but it seems I was just getting started, still have pre-op labs, anesthesia appt., and pre-op H&P. It's all so exciting.
Good luck and here's to a speedy recovery!

Looking forward to a healthier lifestyle. I can hardly believe its really going to happen after all this time. I am nervous and excited. I am so thankful for this site and all the wonderful people I have met. I hope I can help someone as much as I've been helped.
I am very excited to tell anyone that will listen that on March 20th, 2013 I am having my DS Surgery in Carmel, IN @ St. Vincent.
Congrats, I am getting my DS on March 20th, 2013. My pre-op is March 1st. Best of luck.
