I GOT MY SURGERY DATE!!!!!

Here it is... July15th @ Atlanta Medical Center... you know when that hospital was Georgia Babtist, that is were I was born 41 years ago!! I am excited and scared all at the same time Do you have any pointers on what to pack what to take with me, and what to except? Help I am here and now I am lost...

Mine is on the 14th same hospital I was born at 21 years ago! lol
Congrats!

I am the same way.. mine is the same hospital i ws born at 41 years ago.. I say it is my rebirth.... some say it is corny I say I don't care that is the way I feel... LOL

Good luck and don't forget the mani and pedi the weekend before

Good Luck!  Mine is the 15th also.  I don't have any pointers, I'm lost also.  I'm here with papers all around me trying to make lists, lol.

Good luck and most importantly... relax.. take a deep breath and put away all of the papers that you have in front of you... take it from someone who knows you CAN OverDose on information... you have did the big part you have made the decision to have it done. now, from what i understand from reading here there are a lot of people that do not think that a DS is a good thing.. I think it is mainly RNY'ers... but this was th eonly thing I ever considered.. it just made sense to do this one... PROTEIN!!! that has to be your buz word from now on... everything revolves around it and it can make or break you.... after surgery eat protein first and then go to the other stuff... I hate taking pills so it is a stretch for me to take vitamins but it is a small price to pay to be healthy..

 as far as the lists... throw them all away... things to take to the hospital.... jammies to come home in and uno cards to play with my husband and well that is it... your only job is to take care of yourself and get better let everyone worry about everything else... I know that is easier said than done I have twin 13 year old sons and a 14 year old son... my husband is in charge.. no questions no advise....

I was getting ready and then today I woke up with severe pain @ 2am.. impacted wisdom teeth.. so off the oral surgeon I went and I am having surgery in the am... I have one PT visit and one Nutreitionist lesft and i am set..

I do mean what i said about making yourself the most important thing right now... oh I almost forgot... I have my mani and pedi appointment already made for the 12th... don't forget to make yours!!

I am so glad to know someone else that will be having theirs the same day it is exciting and I AM READY!!! the hospital that I am having mine is the same hospital i was born in 41 years ago.. it is like my rebirth... I know corny!!!
