Yesterday I received a call from the sleep study folks to advise I did not need to come to the 2nd appointment because my sleep apena is mild and they may want to treat me after surgery (I guess since my breathing seems to only stop when I am lying on my back and sleeping on my stomach as I do usually will not be possible for a while). This is good news in a sense because I do not have to go back, but it also leaves 2 weeks before I have to go back to see the surgeon and the hiatus (even for 2 wks) tends to make me lose focus. I will prevail however and try to lose more of the weight I gained when I saw them a month ago.

It seems that now the processes and heading toward completion I am getting more nervous and having all kinds of doubts and worries. I keep reminding myself of how great I will feel and coming to this website to look at pictures of successful bandsters to remind me how great I will feel mentally when I look better. Mr. Wilson and I have not discuss the surgery since the last time and our exercising has come to a halt. I figure it is best that I just hold off until I get a date at this point since I still have the final nutrionist appointment to do before a date is even set. I have been trying to prepare my helpers at work just in case I find myself with an October date (wow thats next month!) although I am thinking of putting it off until November just to be sure I have everything in order. (as well to possibly stay out of work past the Christmas holiday since the shrink thinks 4-6 weeks is how much time I should take off)

So this may be my last post for a while since now its a bunch of wait and see...but hopefully my next one will be full of good news.

Best wishes to you...hoping for good news soon! -BG
