Topic: Got room for another one?
Hi all...wanted to join in on the December 2009 board, cause I got my date!!!! I'm set for December 7, and I cannot be more excited!

I'm a 42 year old stay at home wife and mother of 2 (11 & 8). I've been struggling with my weight for pretty much all of my adult life. I have bottomed out at 265 and can't wait for my surgery. I've tried LA Weight Loss, Jenny Craig, Weigh****chers, Slim Fast...you name it! I joined a gym and GAINED weight! I have pretty much not been able to lose 5 pounds in the past year...and I barely eat a thing.

So...making a long story short, I am all ready for my surgery, and hoping for HUGE success! I'm looking to connect with others who are going through the same things that I am, and anyone in the Pittsburgh area.

Oh...I'm having RNY with Dr. Carol McCloskey at Magee Women's Hospital.

Hope to connect with someone. :o)

Topic: DEC 8 BABY

After weeks of hunting Jeremy down,
I finally found him and he gave me my GOOD NEWS...
NOV 19 Pre-Op Appts and DEC 8 for my surgery!!

I can't believe that after 3.5 years and 2 different docs, (and a surgery date that came and went - another long story) I finally get my date.  

  UHHH OHHH.....Just got a letter in from Scott & White @ my 6 month medically supervised diet???  I had that completed back in May 2008 and it won't expire till Dec 12, 2009.  Don't think I ain't gonna call them up   and get to the bottom of this ASAP!!! 

Hope this isn't a set back for me!!!

Topic: RE: Yahoo-I got a date!
I just found out on Monday I had to change my date to 01/06/2010.  I am not too upset.  Someone else here at work needed to have Surgery on 12/08/09 and it was more important.  I have more time to get my Blood Sugars under control before Surgery this way. Thanks for the Thanks! Best to you with the VSG.  I will try not too be too jealous...

 

I am only one, But still, I am one.  I cannot do everything, but still I can do something.  And because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do
the something that I can do.

Topic: Surgery date 12/30/2009
Finally!  Just 2 more tests to do before my surgery date...would have been one,
but the intern had the leads crossed on my EKG.  It made it look like I had a heart attack!
