Friday got the call from my surgeon's office that I'm approved for my VSG! Then, she said I could get in on September 1st! Well, I was just shaking like a leaf, got queasy stomach, felt like laughing, felt like crying!! So then I said "I have to talk to my husband first!" Looked at the calendar and realized that it's just before Labor Day so I called the surgeons office right back and said "Yes, September 1st is a great day!" 

First told my MI OH'r friend (who's beginning her process too), then told my husband, then told my boss and coworker, then told my Mom (who thinks I should just get an operation on my elbow...because isn't it our arm that puts our food into our mouths)...ignored  her comments  and then decided to announce here today my surgery date. 

Hey...no guts...lots of glory!!

Thanks so much!!! There's so much to do before than....Nutrition class, last check in with the shrink, support group, ordering Protien broth, protien jello, sugar free popsicles (hopefully husband won't eat them all before I get home)....and then just getting things caught up at work so I can be out for a few days (job will let me work from home also). Whew...no time to get scared!
