August 10, 2009...anyone?

I'm scheduled for Gastric Sleeve on this day in Tijuana.  Is there anyone having surgery this week that's interested in going on this journey together??  I'm so excited!  Only 27 more days!

Hey Kelly...that's my surgery date too in New York! I'm nervous and thrilled to finally go on this weight loss journey. 27 days...yikes!!!

I'm so excited!  I have to stay in the hospital for two nights and then two nights in a hotel afterward.  How about you? 

I'll be at Lenox Hill Hospital in NYC for 2 days. From what my surgeon says it's mostly for observation and the tummy/leakage test to be administered. He also said they do a leakage test before I leave the OR. Whew! That's TMI (too much info) for me...

Hey that's my date too.  I am having a gastric sleeve done in Newport Beach Ca.  I am very nervous but also very excited.  I only get to stay one night in the hospital which kind of makes me nervous.   

Hello Everyone.... I am on for RNY for August 10, as well!!!

Extremely nervous and excited...

24 more days!  I feel more excited than nervous.  It's such a peaceful feeling to know that I've made this decision.

My date is Aug 10th as well!  Getting pretty nervous, it is almost like I think of it as an out of body experience.  That is probably not  normal, right/

I totally know what you mean by "out of body experience".  It's kind of like something that we can't imagine was ever attainable, right?  Anyway, I'm most nervous about the possible hair loss that comes with WLS.  I'm sure we've all picked one thing about ourselves that we're happy with even though we're overweight.  Mine, of course having nothing to do with my body, is my hair.  I understand that we just need to keep up on our protein  but I'm still nervous.

23 more days, Ladies!!

I wish you tons of luck, I am having mine in Tijuana on August 10th.
