My date is 11/15

I just got my date yesterday. I will be having my surgery in Las Vegas with Dr. Rutledge. I need to finish my "packet" of info that he needs prior to surgery. And I have to get things cleared with my support person to go with me. I'm pretty excited, and I hope I can make it happen for that date. Anyone else scheduled on the 15th?

Hi, Kim! Thanks for your message on my post about my date... I know how you feel, it's so exciting to have a date and something concrete in the horizon, no? I've got a countdown on my calendar; kind of geeky, right? Congratulations and I hope we can continue to communicate here. Hugs, Merci.

That's not geeky! I need a countdown too. I have alot to do before then and I need to keep on track!

Hello. My date is also 11/15. It was originally 11/10 but they changed it due to prior committments. I am having a lap RNY. What about you? Are you doing any diet/exercise prior to surgery? I have gained 5 lbs since my consultation and I need to stop gaining. My surgeon will not be happy. I see him 11-7 for pre-op and sign consent for surgery. Would love to chat. Kolleen

Hello Kolleen, I am having a mini gastric bypass in Nevada. I didn't have to lose before surgery. Actually, I need to NOT lose because I'm right at the cutoff for BMI, but I have a bunch of co-morbidities. My pre-op is Nov. 14 and surgery the 15th. I can hardly wait!
