I'm October 4th

Hi Everyone, I just learned this morning that my transformation day will be Oct. 4th. Is there anyone else with this date? Elizabeth

Hi Elizabeth, that is my date as well. Exciting, huh?? I am a tad nervous though. I keep thinking, an I SURE this is what I want??

That's cool Connie! I am excited but it hasn't fully hit me yet. I think for me I am mostly relieved that my insurance approved me. On Monday I start phase 2 of my surgeon's pre-op diet. That means I can only eat one solid food meal a day and the rest of my meal will be from protein shakes. Two weeks after that I start the full liquid diet. Elizabeth

My date is Oct 3, 2006 I also keep having those same thoughts am I that heavy, I am happy and than nervous. I do read my bible for support and it does say " If God brought you to it, he will bring you through it" that what keeps me pushing. congrats.

Hi Elizabeth, I'm Jane Elizabeth. and my surgery is also on Oct 4th , I'm excited but a little afraid to get too excited. I 'm worried something will happen. good Luck to you. Jane

Hi Jane, I am not worried yet. I have been praying a lot about this process. Maybe when I get 2 weeks or a week before the anxiety will set in. Elizabeth

Hi Elizabeth, I am not on the 4th but on the 19th of October and also live in Maryland. I have been so excited that I stay up late at night reading all the journal entries. Will look forward to your entries after the 4th. Adrienne

Hi Adrienne, Congratulations on your date! What hospital is Dr. Sweitzer out of? I am having my surgery at Shady Grove in Rockville. As for journaling, I haven't been very good at updating. Elizabeth
