I've got a May date too!

Hi everyone! I was thrilled to learn last week that my date for RNY will be May 22nd. Went for my surgeon's office meeting on Friday and had my gastro (ERG) consult this morning. Pre-op labs and nutritional session are scheduled for April 30th (I land on the 29th from 2 weeks in Europe...adding jetlag onto this adventure could get interesting!). Endoscopy will probably happen on May 1 or 2 - still waiting for their scheduling coordinator to call me back...then it's just sit back and wait for the magic day! I'm collecting protein drink samples and will attend my first group support group meeting tomorrow night...other than that, I'm just going to enjoy some of my favorite restaurants and enjoy this time. Fortunately, my doctor doesn't require any special pre-op diet...their bariatric coordinator actually told me to enjoy myself until the day or two before surgery....so I'm going to follow orders! Take care all my fellow May-sters! All the best with your procedures! Hugs, Chele

Hi Chele, Congratulations on your surgery date and welcome to the May Surgery Board!!! Alli

Congrats Chele and welcome to the May board! I'll be right after you on May 23rd. I've been ordering protein samples too. My husband just sits back and laughs. I don't have a special pre-op diet either. He just told me to not go crazy. Best wishes to you too!!! * Cyndi *
