I have my date!
Hey Everyone,
I have my date. I just got it today. It is August 9th. I can't wait! I am excited, happy, nervous, and tired. I have been in this process since last June. I am not getting much support at home which is starting to take its toll on me. I am just tired and want to get it over with. I am having it at Umass with Dr John Kelly. Well thanks to everyone for all their support.

congratulations, i know it is difficult without a lot of support, but you have made your decision and you are doing this for YOU this time is for you and about you. i had my RNY on 7/6/04 at NEMC and was out in 2 days, thankfully no complications and every day gets better, still tired (i love my afternoon naps!) but speaking as someone who has been overweight her whole life and obese the last 10 years this was the only way out to a healthier life. i was taking 70 units of insulin before starting in april 2004 at NEMC now i am off insulin!! so you stick to your guns and know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. lilykate
