New Member! Got my surgery date today!!!

Hi everyone!  I am a brand new member of your group!  I have been going along this trail alone until today....when I got the telephone call with my surgery date...I knew I needed a support group.  I am excited but definitely need a little "support". 

Thanks!!!

We are here for group support.  And the date is.....?  which surgery are you having.  I recall the excitement I was in the day I got my call.  Couldn't contain myself. 

Excited ! ! !

Congrats on getting the news.  Looking forward to sliding my hinder over on this losing bench to make room.  It is an amazing bench, never ending, splinter free, the spring board for health.  Go Loser's.

Ask any questions, thoughts, concerns, joys and anything in between.  Hugs, Kathy

Thanks so much Kathy!!  My surgery date is Feb. 19th.  I am having the gastric by-pass.  I just had my decision visit last Thursday so I really wasn't expecting it to be this soon!!  (It was a happy surprise though!)  My doctor does have my on the liquid diet 2 weeks before surgery - I am wondering how that is going to be????

Thanks so much for making me feel so welcome so fast!!!!!
