OMG, I didn't realize, 5 weeks eek. I just keep repeating, "I gotta do this, I can do this, I deserve a second chance at good health."
Thanks for the support :)
Congratulations! That's exciting news. I hope the next 5 weeks fly by for you!

Hi OH people,
I am so excited that I have a date for my RNY, October 6th. That's if I get clearance from the Cardiologist and PCP. I have been waiting so long and by the time I have surgery it will have been one year since I went to my WLS Information seminar. I am totally ready to go.
Still have more appts and the liquid protein shakes for the 2 weeks prior to surgery. I know the next 5 1/2 weeks are going to fly by.
Surgery is set for Bronson Hospital, Kalamazoo, MI. Bronson Healthcare Midwest Bariatric Surgery
Hi, sorry I haven't heard about this so I can't help you. Have you talked to a Dr. or support group leader. Try the the WLS forum you might get more people that know about this, best of luck. Top of the page under Forums (blue strip)

Hi dreamy_09
It is nice that you responded I was sure Dr Weaver had other patients but posting here I have only found one, you. I see the Doc tomorrow and I am hoping we set up a surgery date. I did the requirements up to the dietition pre/post op, Cardiologist, etc. I think I should be ok. Dr Weaver seemed very knowledgeable at my first appt. and tomorrow I have list of questions for him like what is your leak rate?,mortality rate, success rate (you get the picture). I was hoping for more information about him.
Do you know anyone that has had surgery from Dr Weaver? I don't.
I have gone to some of the support groups at
Bronson. They are ok.
I will drop a line tomorrow after my appt.

Dr. Weaver is also my surgeon, and I am working on requirements. I have completed 2 months of the supervised weight management forms with my PCP.
I am so happy for you Donna. Glad everything went well and that you are on the road to recovery.

I'm happy for you, best wishes! I am glad your VSG was a good experience. Let us know once in awhile how you are doing.
I can hardly wait I see my surgeon on the 14th and I believe we will be able to set up my surgery date.
Enjoy the Loser's Bench :)
