It's a date!!!!

Well today was my surgical consult with Dr. Singh and guess what?! I've got a date! My surgery is scheduled for 4/2/07. That is only 5 weeks away. I am so excited and nervous all at the same time. Dr. Singh was so nice. I really liked him. I was so nervous all morning about meeting him and he put me at ease immediately. I was in and out of his office in about 40 minutes with date in hand. I have to go on 3/20/07 for an endoscopy (yuck) and then I meet with Dr. Singh again a week before my surgery after my pre-op testing. I am only 5 weeks from a new life. Did I mention I was excited?

Congratulations Janet! For me, it is like a rebirth. a second chance in life for allowing me to do things that obesity held me back with. Fitting into size 10 pants...OMG, I am thrilled with my results! Maryellen

Thanks MaryEllen! I would be elated to fit into a size 10 pants. Right now my focus is on maintaining my 32lb weight loss and hopefully dropping more before surgery.

OMG Janet! How life changes. That's wonderful news! I'm so happy for you. Your sticktoitiveness is paying off in spades. Yahoo! xox Amy

WONDERFUL! yOU'LL LOVE IT. The surgery is not bad then your on your way.

I am having surgery on 4/2/07 too! I know exactly what you are thinking, becasue I feel the same way. I still have to do the pre-op tests, and a couple more Dr visits, and then the big day. I'm just trying to maintain the 19 lbs I've lost and trying to lose a few more before the surgery. Congrats on finally getting a date and good luck! Michelle

Hi Michelle, Congrats on your surgery date too!! We will have to keep in touch as we are going to be going through the recovery process together. Good luck!
