June 20th is almost here~!

I know there are a few June 20 people out there so lets hear from yah! Seems like I got my approval letter yeeeeaaaarrrrssss ago.... time is moving so slow!!! I am on day 7 of my pre-op liquid diet... down 9lbs and ready to have the surgery over with already and be home!

I know how you feel! I'm a June 20th too! I'm not on a liquid diet or anything but I feel like I live on yogurt now just because it'll fill me up and is nonfat/low cal. I just want to hurry up and get it over with. Even though part of me is scared to death, the part of me that is excited rules. I had my "last meal" yesterday. We went to a fancy restaurant that had a delicious buffet. I didnt overdo it but it was sort of like a ceremony of me giving up all my old eating habits. But I wish you a easy surgery and an easier recovery. take care!

I'm with ya sisters.....I'm June 20th, as well. I feel like a cat on a hot tin roof!...I have been very low keyed about discussing what I am doing. Only a few people I know are aware of what I am doing. I didn't want any negative vibes. The only draw-back is when so few are aware, you don't get many positive vibes. I'm single/no kids and my boyfriend lives 2 hours away...I'm beginning to feel very isolated and nervous. I'm trying to drop a few pounds as well with a modified liquid diet. I stopped eating "last meals" a week ago. I read a good book this weekend.."Before and After" that I got from bariatriceating.com. Good luck to all of us!

Hello to my fellow surgery date girlies!! Just got my approval this morning, and surgery is the 20th! I'm so excited, but SO nervous!! Praying we all get through this smoothly and with NO complications!! ~Elizabeth

Hey I am a 20th girlie too. Oh I am so excited and scared at the same time. Its been a long haul for me but I know this is the best thing I can do for myself. I want to enjoy life not let it pass me by any more. So here's to us. May we all be blessed with a speedy recovery on our new journeys and help each other along the way. Hugs Debbie M

June 20th rules! I've got nothing else to add. Quiet calm preparation this final week before surgery. Taking the time to enjoy it all and think about next year when life will be so very different.

Hey all!!!! I am a June 20th Babe too!!!!! I had my last pre-op appts. yesterday and now I just wait. I was in the waiting room yesterday and 2 people came up to me since I had my "bariatric bible" from the doctor with me and asked if I was pre-op or post-op. I told them pre-op and that my surgery was the 20th. They both said how wonderful this is and how they are so glad that they did it. I know that we will all be so happy, we are all going to be hotties, of course just more so than we are right now Have a great week and see you all back here afterwards!!! Jeanna

Wow! look at all of us on June 20th! Prayers to everyone of us for an uneventful surgery and speedy recovery. I'm excited and nervous but ready to start a new healthier life. As for a "last meal" I did promise myself a nice steak on Friday night and a pedicure but other than that I'm just finishing some projects at work, gathering some things I'll need upon my return and packing. Can't wait to start hearing all our progress reports!! ~Michelle
