My Date is Confirmed!

Hi all....

Surgery has been scheduled for 8:30am on January 21st!!!!  I am so excited!  I'm flying to Oahu on the 15th for my preop appointments.  Then will fly over again on the 20th with a good friend who will stay with me there until I can fly home to Kona.

My hubby will stay in Kona and watch the boys.  I'm good with that because I know my girlfriend will be a great support for me and I think my husband will make me nervous.  I love him so much, but he can't handle when I'm not 100%   

Anyway... looks like I'll be starting my preop diet soon.  Have already given up caffeine (coffee and diet coke), and will be giving up fresca this week.  Also will be putting the wii fit to use -- time to take down the christmas tree and make room for the wii fit !!

Aloha and Happy New Year!

Nicole


 

I am so happy for you, Nicole!! It's such an exhilarating feeling when you finally get "the date." The reality of it all starts setting in.

Sorry if I missed it before, but which surgery are you having?

Best to you always and a hui hou!
((hugs))

 Thanks Makena...

I'm having lapband.   I have waivered a bit between lapband and gastric bypass.... but decided on lapband.

Aloha,
Nicole

Congrads Nicole.  I had the lap band on  Dec 10th and so far am down about 19 ibs.   Good luck.  Sara

Congrats and good luck Nicole!

Oh I'm so happy for you.  Hopefully, I will be right behind you.  Debbie

Congratulations on a date and just a couple of weeks away -- how awesome! 

I went through it without my DH because he had to stay home as we are caretakers to his dad.  Although I missed him a lot we kept in touch by phone.  He is the same as yours -- doesn't do well when I'm not 100%.  It worked out great because I really needed to concentrate on myself and healing and the first few days were really important for that!

You will do great!
