I have a DATE!!!!

WOOOO HOOOOO!!!! I have a date!!!!! August 3rd, 2005!!!! That's only three weeks away!! I can't believe they got me in so soon. I am the happiest woman on earth!!! Katie Open DS with Dr. Anthone cw / gw / ht / bmi 360 175 5'7" 54

Holy Crap that is crazy fast......the time will fly by before ya know it!!! I will be right behind ya, I am too going in for surgery on the 4th.....plastics and nowhere near you.....but it is the thought that counts Take Care and wishing you the best Do you have everything ready?? Keep us updated Jesi

Good luck with your plastics!! Where are you having them done? I think I have everything ready, but I am sure that I will think of a million things more to do to prepare in the next couple of weeks!! I have already purchased all of my vitamins, and also biotin and the like to prevent hair loss. Did you buy a nitegown to wear rather than your hospital gown? I am seriously considering doing that. And I need to get TONS of reading material, because with duodenal switch surgery, you have to be in the hospital a little longer (5-6 days). I am so excited!!! I have been waiting to do this for over 3 years now. I can't believe it is finally happening!! Hugs, Katie

Congrats katie!!! woo hoo! That is not very far off!! Shelli

Congrats Katie.. Read your post below about the nightgown.. Because of the IV's your likely to have you probably won't be able to wear them soon. I took a pair of sleep pants, I like to have my arse covered, and I wore them under the hospital gown. After they took out my IV, 2 days later I had my hubby bring me up a couple of shirts to wear instead of the HGowns, seems like I was forever gettin tied up in them somehow. Good luck and Aug 3rd will be here before ya know it. It's my sons b-day he'll be 5 so that will be a good way for me to be thinkin of ya!! Best wishes hun.. Tracie S.. 341/310/180
