My date is the 18th!

I am having RNY gastric bypass on the 18th in Fresno, California. I am really starting to get nervous now. I'd love to hear from anybody else on or around the 18th. Sam

Congrats on your upcoming day. I have been rescheduled for surgery three times and it driving me crazy. It will be great for you keep us updated. Salena

Hi Sam, Congratulations! I am going next Tuesday 6-10-08 for the lap band. I am also nervous and excited I am on the protein diet and boy its duff, but I figure its preparing me for the after diet. Sometimes this isnt bad and then there are others its harder..... lol go figure. I am a little concerned because I only planned a week from work and from what I am reading, I should plan two. Which is ok, because I have surgery on Tuesday and plan to be back the next Tuesday, so if I have to take Tues - Friday that should be ok, just that I was out most of last year for 6 surgies. So, I am trying to earn my sick time back. Sorry to ramble on, good luck on getting prepare for the surgery!! Will be thinking, praying for you, that it will go well and that you will have a speedy recovery!

Hey Samantha we are having our surgerys the same day woooo hooo go us!!!!! Would love to keep in touch and compare notes.

I would also love to keep in touch and compare notes. My family and I are headed out for vacation this week, so I can use the rest of the summer to recooperate since I am a teacher.
