Congratulations!
I'm booked on May 12th as well in Utica, NewYork.
I'm so excited I think I'm going to burst.
Yet, I'm scared to death as well, lol

Who is your surgeon?
Mine is Dr. Fitzer. Hope he's good, lol

Vitamins sweets! Start them now! And the Calcium. I recommend Bariatric Advantage of course.

Start eating off a smaller plate and taking smaller bites and chew, chew, chew. Stock up on the foods you will need for the different stages after your surgery....clear broths, mushy foods, etc.

If I think of anything else, I will hit you up here or on Rt's board.

So good to see you here. Muah!

Hi! Newbie here. Found out today my approval came through, and my surgery date is set for May 5th. I am soooo excited!! I have so much to do to get ready though.

I know that I need to start the vitamins now. Any recommendations?? I am going start the my pre op Atkins on Monday, just to get a jump on it.

Anything else that I should be doing, but am not aware of?

Thanks!!

Topic: RE: May 4th Date

Im another May 4th surgery. I am so nervous also and just wondering what's ahead!!! this is not jenny craig or weigh****chers!!! This is a major tool and life changing decision that will help me to finally be successful. I love working out, but it was such a struggle killing my self in the gym trying to loose or even maintain a weight to just gain it back. I'm just so ready for a new chapter of my life and wondering what it will be like. May 4th seems so far away
