After 6 months of dealing with so much, It is almost finally here. Today I finished up all my appointments including pre-op. Surgery is for Nov. 25th at 1:55 in the afternoon. I'm on day 3 of the new direction liquid diet and so far it's not bad. Haven't cheated yet, and the new direction doesn't taste to bad either. I was told to loose at least 10 to 15 pounds and  I've lost 31 so far. It's been a long journey, since I had a such a rocky start with the clinic and insurance companies not knowing what was going on. It all worked out and here I am 6 months later and ready to go in the operation room. I guess when I think about it the 6 months went kind of fast. It was just a lot of headaches and jumping through hoops. Well I made it and am proud of myself for getting here. So to all the newbies on here hang in there you will get there and good luck with your journeys.

Thank you. It took long enough. How much have you lost so far? I haven't been around much so I haven't heard how your doing lately.

Right back at you. Wow one day apart. I was told I will have a one night stay in the hospital unless I have complications so I will be getting out when your going in. This is so exciting, I wish you the best of luck with your journey. Please let me know how your doing after.
