Hi, This is my first time posting a message. I thought it might be a good time to post because I just found out my surgery is August 2, 2005! I have a profile- so I don't want to bore anyone with 'my story'. I hope everyone is doing great! Are ya'll ready for your surgery? I hope I can share what I am going through prior and after surgery. I know I am going to need some people who understand this whole process to share things with... I am so excited that I have a date! I feel this is the path I need to take on my journey- the healthy path. Well, that's all for now. Best wishes to everyone : ) Jenna

Hi Patty,
I am so happy for you! I meet with my surgeon tomorrow (I have to bring in my hubby to verify I have a 'support' person that will help when I come home). At that meeting, I find out the time of my surgery. I also will find out if she wants me to do a liquid diet or high protein/low carb diet. I haven't heard from her or the surgeon liaison of any dietary requirements before my surgery; except do not eat after midnight Monday night. I will also find out if my RNY will be distal or proximal. I am having laproscopic, are you? I just found out today that my surgery date is Tuesday, so I am just so wired right now! I am so ready to be a LOSER!?!?! Aren't you? : ) I am concerned about getting all my 'required' protein in after I go home from the hospital. This is the tool (WLS) I have been waiting for, I want to make sure I can work it so I will be successful!!! Bless you and definitely keep in touch. Smiles, JENNA
