Fusilli66 22 Posted September 11, 2011 Congratulations and best of luck to you! Isn't it so exciting! I just got my date also - 10/11 and I was practically jumping up and down with happiness. I have to start the liquid pre-op diet on Tuesday. For some reason, my doctor likes 4 weeks. Its the only part I'm not thrilled about, but I'm sure I will survive it. Lol. Good luck to you!

NikiS 31 Posted September 12, 2011 @ Lo, CONGRATS on getting a date! When they gave you your date didn't it feel like you had won the lottery. I remember screaming and doing a happy dance when I got my approval letter in the mail. When I called the coordinator and got a date I almost fell out of my seat...literally! So happy for you!!!! September 26 is right around the corner. @Fusilli, Oct. 11...I'm sure you're counting the days. Congratulations!! It will be here before you know it. All the best t you! @Imlooznit, my date is 9/20, which is just a few short days away. Im anxious, excited, nervous and very expectant. I know this is right for me and at the end of the day the emotion that I feel is happiness. We are definitely doing the right thing. Hang in there...we can do this! Chin up young person!

LoBee 0 Posted September 13, 2011 @Fusilli66- Congrats to you too and I hope you do well on you diet.. @ wishes- Thank you 33 @ ImLooznit- I understand about about being scared because I wanted to push it back a couple of weeks but my family talked me out of it . Now I'm glad they did. Just think the next two weeks are going to fly by @ NikiJ- Thank you !!! When they told me my date ... You could have knock me down with a freather. The only think I can comepare to it is when my man proposed to me cause all I wanted to do was cry and call everyone but I couldnt stop shaking ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AnneG 7 Posted September 14, 2011 Congrats to all getting their surgery soon. I just had mine last week- it certainly is a flurry as the date gets closer with the pre op diet and getting things settled at home and/or work- it goes quickly tho. I'm very excited for you all. :cheer2: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
