All Confirmed for admission - becoming very real .........

Just off the phone from the admissions nurse, ticked off all the boxes

I am going in at 7am Monday and will be the first sleeve after 2 Gastroscopy's on other patients. Have been told I should be back in my room by 11.30am - 12.00

Have been getting organised and still feeling calm and prepared but this did kick things up a gear. I think my anxiety will build over this coming weekend and I am planning to just take it slowly and try to be as grounded and calm as I can.

I know this is the best thing I can do for my health and wellbeing and no regrets

Hoping this is the case once I clear the first few weeks (expect they will rough and prepared for that)

Wahoooooo

Great news, your really close! when your anxiety does build up come here to talk it through, i have a few worries but trying to keep it in check and focus and facts and reality its hard lol :)

Thank you so much

This community is great - you will also do great and your surgery is coming up fast too

Look forward to sharing results :)

So excited for you!!

Can't wait until it's me waiting on admission!! Will be praying for you!

Thanks so much Susie :)

When is yours scheduled?

Unfortunately, I have not been able to get it scheduled because I still have to get the required psych eval and sleep study and my insurance won't cover it because my deductible has not been met :(. But....I am patiently waiting and working to make the $$ to get this on track. I am so excited and anxious to get this rolling!

Can't wait to see you rock this. I know you are going to do well.

Looking forward to running the race together - as you are 2 days behind me :)

Good luck with the prep

It'll be great. No worries at all. I regretted it the day I was stuck in the hospital bed, where I couldn't drink water. And then when I could, felt such horrible gas pains but the next day I was feeling great and I love that I did this. The early regrets are just head stuff. You are going to do great. Yay health!!

Thanks :)

I have tried to prepare myself for the rough start after surgery but guess it will be just taking one day at a time and realising everyone is different in what they experience.... the main thing is the reason we do this. To be healthier and thats what I will try and focus on to get me through the rougher patches
