today was a fantastic day! ive finally got a date for my surgery! February 25th! i am ecstatic.

i have to meet with Dr. Bui on the 16th (10 am) for the pre-op consult, signing of papers, taking of vitals, weigh in, etc.

ill be meeting with the anesthesiologist on the 17th (7 am) to have blood drawn, consult, signing of papers, etc.

and then on the 25th...i am FINALLY getting my band! ive been working toward this goal since Nov 2008. im so happy. a little nervous since it seems its coming up so quickly but i am ready!

as of right now, im on the pre-op diet for 2 weeks. itll be a rough 2 weeks but well worth it!!:frown:
