:sniff: So Bummed...

Well I made my first post here a couple of weeks ago and was looking so forward to getting to know you all on here... but since then some things have changed which has kept me away. Anyway I was scheduled for surgery 11-14-2006, but I have had to cancel. I am still holding out hope that everything will work out soon. But in the mean time I am so bummed out about the whole thing. In the meantime, I have not made much of any attempts to loose weight before surgery, and now I figure since I have to wait I might as well try to start and get ahead of the game if at all possible. I didn't expect to get my approval the first time and honestly I didn't know if I would get it at all, but I did and now I just have another hurdle to jump. But I thought I would as you all what kinds of things are things to do before surgery to get started. I had not been advised to loose much weight before surgery just 10 pounds. But I would like to do better than that if possible. Anyway, I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks in advance. Kristina

Kristina, I am so sorry that you are not going to be able to have your surgery when planned. Just keep your eye on the prize and if you really want this, it will happen. Best of luck to you on your journey. Shawn M.

Kristina, when the time is right, it will come together. Keep the faith that it will. I'm sorry you had to put things on hold. Good luck with your pre-op weight loss.

Kristina, It will happen, don't worry!!! I was originally scheduled for september, then october, then early november and now finally I have a date for sure at the end of November. Just keep doing what you were doing and keep being healthy! If you need a friend I'm very familiar with what you are going through. Kepp your chin up girl! Hugs, Bonnie
