Got a tentative date!

Holy crap!

2nd appointment with surgeon on August 8th and a tentative date for RNY on August 27th!  She has to see if another surgeon is available to assist so I should hear back soon!!

Did I mention holy crap!?!

This is so exciting!!!  Think of how different you will look at Christmastime!

Holy Crap!  That's one month, dear.  LOL.  That is just great, I think.  It is a bit of a shock when the date is set, no?  But you are on your way and I am very happy for you.  Treading

Congratulations.....I am August 15th.  Lap band....The time will go fast

Less than a month, actually! LOL.  It;s funny - as soon as I got the date, I feel like my head is more 'in the game' now.  I feel like I need to make sure I am below goal and exercising.

I am a little more scared about complications - read a bit on intestional blockage yesterday and stricture, etc.  But of course, there are complications to being obese too, but those don't seem as 'real'.

I know, it's crazy how we get so nervous about the possible complications from weight loss surgery, eyt don't seem to recognize the extreme risks of being morbidly obese!
