OMG...I am so sorry to hear that. Those damn doctors they can be such ******** sometimes. Seriously what's 5 pounds??? To big girls like us that's nothing.
I would call all the time to see if there are any cancellations. Don't give in.
Surgery Date: October 5, 2009

 I'm sure the surgeon has your best interests in mind.  There is probably a reason why he won't operate and I'm sure it's to guarentee your health and safety.  I know it's a bummer but try to look at it that way.  I know you wouldn't want to go into surgery knowing that you weren't in the safest condition possible to make a full recovery with no complications.  

That being said, just keeping exercising and logging your food.  I use www.fitday.com and that has really helped me keep track of everything and been a good record keeper for when I slip up.  I would say stick around 1,300-1,600 calories a day and you should see results.  Exercise is really important too so aim for at least 30 minutes 5 or so days a week.  

I know it's frustrating but like the previous poster said, if you lose the 5lbs, keep checking for cancellations.  If nothing opens up, it's only a month and half more...you can do it!! 

Good luck!

hi there:)
i'm sorry you have to wait for your surgery...but like emily said, it's prolly for the better anyways, i hear ya on the expenses though, i haven't had surgery yet and i'm dreading all the little things that are going to pop up. i have 3 kids that i don't want to take away from! please don't be sad, just think you DO have a date, it's just been postponed for now, that's all. it'll give you more time to practise the eating and exercising too while you wait :) take care!

SORRY TO HEAR THE NEWS..=(

DONT GET UR SELF DOWN UR DOING GREAT AND JUST KEEP GETTING THE WEIGHT OFF..ULL BE MUCH HEALTHIER IN DECEMBER WHEN U HAVE UR SURGERY AND THAT INCRERASES UR SUCCESS RATE BY 100%..SO KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND DEC. WILL BE HERE IN NO TIME..

NOTE: THEY WILL NOT OPERATE ON U BECAUSE THEY EXPECT U TO SHRINK UR LIVER ( it decreases ur chances to have a succesful suregy with out complications and it also helps the surgeon perfom lap.bypass rather than an open bypass)

I KNOW IT SUX BUT ITS FOR UR OWN BENEFIT..JUST HANG IN THERE..
