June 29th!!!!! My surgery Date!

Everythings going so fast! I started my preop food intake yesterday. Two weeks and then my surgery! WOWSA> I just started this journey(mid May) and everything went so smoothly and fast as far as insurance, medical records, appts go.

I cant believe it! 
I am happy beyond words that I am not having to get started then wait for months to have the surgery. Once I got psyched up about this and prayed about it, I was like !!READY SET GO!!! Lets get this over with and onto change. permanent change......

Since I spent the month of April in and out of the hospital (2times) and spent my birthday in the hospital, its nice to have something to finally celebrate about!


Here is to all of my fellow CO-June-Surgery-Mates!

God bless and keep you.! Many wishes for wonderful outcomes and speedy recovery! Keep updates on your sites and look at as much as you can. It encourages you!! I know it does me!


See you all on the other side!!!

I too am a fellow June Bandster, my surgery date is set for June 27th... I'm also ready for a change.

I will post later and add my story...Good Luck... any advice you can give me for the preop diet??

Good luck to you both! I had the lap band on June 8th and so far so good just with minor issues!

I'm scheduled for June 29th as well (VSG). Excited, anxious, nervous, almost every emotion I can imagine is all coming to surface. Where are you having your surgery? I'm in CA. Please keep in touch - it's nice to know someone else that will have the same surgiversary.

HEy there ! I am having my surgery at St Francis Hospital in Greenville SC on 6/29/09. The RNY Surgery.....I am getting excited and less nervous now...I went to my support group meeting last night and alot of patients that have had surgery by Dr. Anderson. Made me feel alot better hearing all their words of praise and support! 

Ive had all the emotions as well as crazy dreams.......We will get thru this! High ^5 gal! You take care ofyou!!!

Congrats on getting your date! I'm set for the 29th as well. Look out world...here we come.....in smaller, healthier versions of course.

Wow, your date is the day before my birthday!  I'm definitely praying you through this and afterwards for all the success you hope for (and more).   I can certainly tell you that this is not an easy thing to handle and it will take you through every emotion you can think of but remember why you're going through this and once you start to lose the weight you will smile and get all the motivation in the world to keep going.  Congratulations again to all the June babies and I can't wait to track your progress.  See you on the other side....!
