Pre-Op is tomorrow, the 23rd and my surgery is scheduled for Tuesday the 27th of July! Hard to believe it is here after dreaming about this for years. I have to give a big thumbs up to UnitedHealthcare and my employer's benefits. It was really easy and my heart goes out to those of you that had/have trouble getting approved. I can only imagine how stressful that is. I did pretty well on the pre-op diet but it wasn't as strict as some that I have read about. I guess I am ready:smile:

I understand what you are saying. I have researched it for over 3 years and my day is 7/27. Everyone asks if I am excited... weird question I think. I say, "not excited" but definatly ready. I know that I could lose some of the weight but was tired of trying so hard only to throw in the towel and be back to square one. Did you have a psych evaluation? Maybe you can talk thru it with the counselor and work thru your feelings. Good luck and we are all here for you!

So sorry to hear about your lack of support. I agree with the other two ladies here and will be thinking of you and hope he comes around.

Hugs to you!!

I would tell the docs what the situation was and hopefully they can work with it! I asked to be moved to July from August and they were able to accomodate me!! Good luck!

I thought I would die without my diet coke and I am now 4 weeks free!! I never thought about how real that bloat was from "diet" soda. Good Luck!!

Thanks!! I hope everything goes smoothly for you - I screwed up my registration so I am starting a new one -it is grigg4 for future posts.
