I'm Approved!

Congratulations! I understand about your worry. My surgery is in 2 weeks and I am worried too. I think (hope) that is normal. First we are afraid we won't be approved and just as soon as we are we start worring about something else. I will be waiting to hear a date!

Congrats!!! Happy day for you!! I know what you mean, though-it leaves you sorta numb. I kinda thought "Oh my--what have I done??" That went away quickly, though-and I've found my excitement again. Wonder how we'll feel just a day or so before surgery dates?? Big hugs! Michelle

Hey Barb, Yaaaaaaaaay!!!!!! So happy for you. It won't be long now. Yeah, there's a whole lot of mind swirling and a ton of other emotions that seem to just be par for the course in this wls journey. We are here for you and you are in my prayers. Meso

CONGRATULATIONS BARB: I KNOW YOU WILL BE GLAD WHEN THE DAY COMES AND YOU ARE ON THE LOOSING SIDE. I AM 5 WKS OUT AND STILL TRYING TO GET USE TO THE EATING PART. BUT I HEAR IT GETS MUCH BETTER AS TIME GOES ON. I LIKE WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO ME SO FAR. GOOD LUCK ON YOUR WLS JOURNEY AND YOU WILL BE IN MY THOUGHTS. MARY

That's wonderful news! It is very normal to be scared, excited, anxious, all in the same breath! It is rough in the beginning, I'll be honest with you. But at 9 months out, the eating issues have gotten so much better for me it's unbelieveable. I can even eat bread sometimes now! Best of luck to you, we'll be thinking about ya! Kelle

CONGRADULATIONS ! I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU. HOPE IT WON'T BELONG BEFORE YOU WILL BE POSTING YOUR SURGERY DATE. YOU GO GIRL!
