Topic: August 17!!!!
i'm so excited for my surgery! it's august 17 at 8 am. i can't wait!!! i decided to do the laproscopic gastric bypass instead of the lap band. the docs think i'll have better success with it.

i'm so excited, but also pretty scared. i had a c-section almost 7 months ago and had horrible complications with infection and wound dehiscence.  i hate the thought of another surgery especially with all i've been through lately. but i gotta do it. i want to be around to see abigail grow up. and i don't want to be the fat mommy!

Topic: Got my surgery date FINALLY!

I wanted to send out a little hello to everyone.  I started this process years ago but finally got insurance approval about a month ago.  My bariatric center kept dropping the ball on giving me a surgery date but I finally got one today.

I go in for a RNY on Aug 5th.  I had originally planned to get the lapband and even thought the paperwork they sent to the insurance company requested approval for the lapband but I guess they messed up and it was sent in for RNY.  During the process of waiting for an approval I did more research and had decided against the band.  I guess it was all in the cards and meant to be to get the RNY.  Thanks for messing up Western Bariatrics.  LOL!

Good Luck everyone :)

 I'm having my surgery on August 3rd in St. Louis.   I will be starting the liquid diet on Monday.  Anyone have any suggestions as to what they have bought or are going to try?  Any suggestions would be appreciated

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?

Hey Donna,

I'm having surgery on the 17th too.  I'm having the VSG done in Mexico.  Can't wait to track you on your journey.
