Hi all

I'm schedulded for Jan. 16th for my Lap Roux-en-Y, I can't believe how fast the days are going by. I finished all my pre surgery appointments today, just have to see my surgeon for the last time on Monday. I'm starting to get some pre surgery gitters,,,just hope everything goes by the book.

I'm scheduled for Feb 9th...it's a flyin...Good Luck. Keep your fingers crossed. Someone told me that drinking lots of water for the days before the surgery helps....guess it can't hurt. I'm sure you'll do fine. Do you have someone who can post for you so we can keep updated on your progress?

Good luck on your upcoming surgery, Brenda. I can only imagine what it feels like to be so close to surgery date as I am still trying to get all the doctors to turn their paperwork in so it can be turned in to the insurance company. I am hoping that by spring I will at least have a date. I am sure everything will go just fine for you. My thoughts are with you as you join the losing side. Deanna

Hijack............... Hi Deanna, I am from Ballwin also.

Brenda... The time will fly by and in NO time you will be joining all of us on that proverbial "losers" bench. Make sure that you try to get all the "bad" foods cleared out of your house. Anything that is a trigger food for you that you think might cause you problems... Start concentrating on your eating now... I wouldn't recommend those "last meals" that everyone talks about. Start reprogramming your mind where food does NOT control you... it will make your initial preop days much easier! Hang on... not too much longer!! Elizabeth~

Hi Brenda, I just want to wish you luck and know that my thoughts will be with you as your life changing day comes near! Can't wait to join you on the loser's bench! Best of luck to you, Cassandra
