Krissy, My surgery is scheduled May 1st, I too am ready. I understand all the feelings, one minute happy, one minute wondering if I am doing the right thing and nervous. Well, I have to look back and realize that I have been wanting this for a long time, the date is set so here goes.... I figure if I could lose this on my own, it would have been off by now... I am thinking this just might be the best choice of my life...

Hi Krissy, my surgery is scheduled for May 9th, and I am very ready!!! I've been approved since November of last year, and my surgery has had to be post-poned once already, so I'm very ready. 38 days and counting!!! Alli

I'm still awaiting my official date, but was told it should be sometime in May. So I'm holding to that. Even though I don't have a date, I'm still stressin'. Trying to make sure I have what I need. One minute it feels a million miles away, and the next just around the corner. So weird! I have to do a 4 week liquid diet and am nervous about it, but just want to get going already too. Good luck to all of us, may our surgeon's hands be guided, may we have uneventful surgeries, and may we all have uncomplicated, speedy recoveries!

My tentative date is May 8th, but I will not know for sure until the 18th - and also waiting on insurance approval too... BUT... I am excited AND scared... I flip-flop constantly... but I am so ready to shed this weight!

I am just feeling a whole bunch of stuff! I don't even want to regret this so I am just really trying to prepare myself mentally for what is to come. Definitely excited though!

Hi everyone, My date is May 10 I have been trying to get here for two years. I still don't feel like its real. I don't think I will believe it until they wheel me in and put the mask on my face.

Hi Krissy and all the other "May"bees. My date is set for the 8th. I'm also happy, excited, scared, terrified and everything else. Most of all, I can't wait to start being a loser!!!!! ~~Elena :wave:

Krissy; My surgery is scheduled for May 2, 2007 and I also am just now going back and forth in my mind about the surgery. When I am by myself, I keep questioning myself if I am doing the right thing, but when I get to reading the OH forum about all the successes; I feel that I am doing the right thing. I have to just put it in God's Hands and though prayer; I am giving it all other to Jesus and will trust in him. take care and Good Luck with your surgery...

Hi Krissy! My date is tentatively May 4th. 29 DAYS! WAHOO! I won't know for sure until after the 19th of April when they submit everything to the insurance for approval. I sure hope it's that date because if it's any later it will mess with some stuff at work and you know we can't have that! I am so excited though! I was going over stuff I needed after surgery last night. I already have my chewable Multivitamins, now I need to get chewable calcium. Does anybody know if there is a chewable iron or B12 pill? (that sounds nasty just thinking about it!) I have some protein shake powder, but willb e getting more since I don't know how well I will like this after surgery. I've ordered me a robe and slippers for after surgery and a new scales (I just hate those too!). My husband has requested the time off work to help me for the first week. He's SOOO supportive of me. He's almost as excited as I am! Take Care! Leslie
