August 8th is my date/Dr. Aranow

I have just learned about this site from Tammy in my support group. I think the support given and received is wonderful. I received my call today, my insurance company approved me and I go in for my open RNY on August 8th. I am so excited.

Welcome to the August group and the August 8 club. I'm going in on the same day. We are going to have a great ride!!! Ken

I know I can't believe it. I saw my doctor on May 9th and here I am three months later going in. I am so excited. It's mind blowing when you think that our lives will be different every day from August 8th on. We'll keep in touch. Kristine

Congratulations!! Isn't it exciting?! My date is August 8th also. So close!! Good luck!! Keep in touch! Judy
