I had my pre-op apt today & I will be having the gastric bypass on 12/4! I am excited & nervous at the same time. Ready to be a healthier me. Has anyone else experienced negativity from a family member who had bariatric surgery & they didn't accomplish their goal?

I am so happy! Rec'd the ins. Appr. just now. Calling dr 1st thing mon morning to get my pre-op Apt sched & hopefully the next thing I post will be a surgery date. It's been a long road to get here, I am so blessed to be given this opportunity! Good luck to everyone on here. :-)

Hello everyone, I am new to this group. My husband and I started this process back in March and we are going for our last nutrition visit tomorrow. It's been a long 7 months with the many different dr apt's but its worth it as this opportunity is going to change both of our lives.

Thank you all so much. I will tell him to join as well :-). Going to check out the my fitness pal and get it on my phone.

Thank you for the welcome. We are excited & nervous at the same time. I am glad that we are going thru this together. After 4 kids and the constant yo yo of dieting we are ready to make changes for our new start on life. I read a lot of the posts on here and am touched by the support everyone offers each other. When we go for our last nutrition visit tomorrow we will be scheduling our pre-op visit. I can't believe we are finally at this point. Good luck to all of you and thank you for sharing your stories. :-)
