Exactly! Such a waste of money. The dress I wore to the wedding I'm going to wear to the Christmas party also. Luckily it was on clearance. But still, money down the drain. I'm going to try to take it in after I lose weight because it is definitely a cute dress.

Exactly. My husband is in the army and has volunteered me to help with all the holiday party things. I'm in no mood. And I'm especially in no mood to get dressed up for the party. The holiday party is the weekend after my surgery so I'm either going to be in too much pain to go or too high on painkillers to care lol.

Good luck to you too!

Awesome! Congrats!!!!!

Just got off the phone with the office 12/2 is my date!!!

I thought it was 11/25. But apparently that was just a dummy date or the purpose of paperwork. I'm waiting on a call back from the scheduler now

Lmao. Calm is NOT something I can pull off

Yes, yes you did! lol I'm like flipping out!!! I called my husband flipping out and screaming like a maniac (in excitement of course). He couldn't understand a word I was saying and thought I was mad at him for something. ????????????

I had to get a cardiac and pulmonologist clearance, they included an echocardiogram and a stress test and a breathing test. a psych eval, barium swallow, and go to one support group meeting. I luckily didn't need to do any supervised dieting.

This is my EXACT reason why I didn't want to do it then! I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels this way. It doesn't matter now though because I just got off the phone with the surgery scheduler and she's changing my date and calling me back with a new one. And I didn't even ask them too.

As I right now my surgeons office has me penciled in for surgery November 25th, two days before thanksgiving (so long as I don't get a denial in the meantime). If I was in the hospital for two days i would come home on thanksgiving. Ideally I would've not liked to do the surgery that week. But if I wait it has to be the following week or AFTER the new year. Obviously I want the surgery over and done with, so waiting until after New Years is not happening. But do I really want to torture myself being on a liquid diet on thanksgiving?? What would you do!?!? Help!!

I'm bringing an oil diffuser with natural oils. Hopefully the hospital has no problem with it. I had one when I have birth to my son but it was at a different hospital.

I haven't been sleeves yet but I get b12 injections from my hematologist when I get iron infusions.

It's true! Every anesthesiologist I've ever had was drop dead gorgeous and had seen me looking my absolute worst. I think it's a rule that in order to be an anesthesiologist you HAVE TO be good looking

Thank you so much and good luck to you too! Luckily for the both of us though there are a ton of great shopping deals online on Black Friday and cyber Monday! So while we will be missing the actual shopping in stores, we can still get it done without missing any deals! Haha

Thank you Grammy!

Let me know when you hear something!

Are you serious? That's horrible. I'm so sorry

Ugh I'm so aggravated. My mother in law texted me this morning asking if she should cancel thanksgiving at her house and when I spoke with my mother (who is also going to my in laws) she said she should cancel. This is exactly what I didn't want to happen. For everyone to rearrange their holiday because of me. Oh well. They can all fend for themselves then.

I'm hoping I don't need them. I'm not sure how many pharmacies will be open on thanksgiving day!!

Those are awesome points. I didn't even think over everyone being home! And Yes, be my buddy! Haha

I am!!!!

You're awesome! Advice taken! Lol

That's an awesome idea
