Saw the surgeon--have a date!

I had a consult with my surgeon today and have a surgery date of 6/5/09.

The plan is for an Out-Patient procedure to place the Realize Band.

I have a psych eval to complete and then I am on my way!

I am so jazzed.

Wasnt Dr Monash great!!! Who is your psych eval with , if you do not have a person picked out I can recommend to you who I used, I didn't use the one that works in the office with Dr Monash I used one that my insurance covered and he was fabulous message me if you want his name.

My psych eval is with Terri -- she is at his office on Wednesday's, so I am just going to do it there.
Because I am self-pay, it is all part of the package price.

I just had routine bloodwork at my dr's appt 2 weeks ago, so I don't have to any more of that.

I am going to keep working my current program (1200-1400 calories a day and 30 - 40 minutes cardio every other day) and hope to lose 5 - 10 more pounds prior to surgery.
I have to have a colonoscopy on Tuesday (not WLS related -- just being 50!), so I get a head start on the 'clear liquid' part of things, at least temporarily.

thanks for the good wishes!  I am going to be picking your brain!

Congratulations Kath!!
It will be here before you know it

That's awesome!!!!  My date is May 14th.  I remember finally getting my date and it is so exciting!!!!!  Sounds like you are already doing great!!!  Good Luck
