Topic: My new Date! May 11
I just got back from the last of my 6 month supervised weight loss requirements and my official date is May 11!!! They are submitting to insurance today and I should hear something by next week. Cross your fingers...... I can't believe it's 3 weeks away!!!! I was petrified at the office and couldn't move.....I am excite and scared at the same time...I can't believe it is actually going to happen!!!

Wow, 14 days, I guess I won't complain about 10!! I've heard from several people that its a huge mind game and the first three days are the hardest. A good friend told me that every time she felt hungry she would have a shake. I am a snacker so this is going to be hard for me, but I think I'm going to add ice to my shakes at least I can munch on the ice chunks.
Best of Luck to you, I know you'll do great!!

Yea, I'm a little freaked out about the whole liquid diet thing. I'm a snacker and love to snack at work.....I know I can do it but it will be really hard....the hardest day will be the Friday before my surgery because my family has pizza, popcorn and movie night....I'll be drinking a shake!! Best of luck to you on your surgery!

Hello Ladies...Well Im going to give this messaging a shot...I also have my surgery on CINCO DE MAYO...When I got the date I had to chuckle due to it being somewhat of a holiday..and hopefully it will be a "holiday" for us...Soo I have two daughters at home soon to be 12 and a 4 yr old...Im having thoughts that I am being selfish...Due to the fact Im scared to death litterly something will happen to me in surgery..You know not wake up, get a blood clot anything..I just need some reassureing...I know people say you risk your life every day driving back and fourth to work yada yada...but this is an elective surgery Im having (rny by the way)...im sure everyone has these thoughts just wanted some more input....also I go tomorrow for all my blood work and to meet with my surgeon again..then again on the 30th for the scope..I pray im doing the right thing..Thanks in advance for replying..I just hope Im able to retrieve them as im new to this...

Congrats on getting your date. You can keep a spot on the Loser Bench for me my surgery is May 25th. I start my liquid diet on May 11th so it is actually 2 full weeks. . I know I can do it, not looking forward to it but I guess I will survive, 1st real food after surgery so once to the puree will be really good I'm sure
