I'm ready! Mine is going to happen on 10/7 in Barranquilla, Colombia by Dr. Cure. I will be going back home to Chicago on the 12th where I can hope to meet some weight loss buddies or maybe join a group.

Okay, it's been a while since I posted. Thought I was going to have surgery next year due to varying changes in circumstance. Well, I continued my plan with seeing the nutritionist and physician for my required 6 months as dictated by insurance. All of a sudden things are falling in place. I finished my visits, it is submitted to insurance and I am scheduled to meet with my surgeon and sign papers THIS THURSDAY, the 10th! Hopefully, we will hear positive results from insurance and I will, in fact, be an October sleever!

If anyone has suggestions as to questions for the surgeon that they are asking, or more importantly, wish they had asked, please send 'em along. I have a list, but it is in constant edit mode.

Hope to have a date soon!

Yes I am. Kind of in a tilt but I have my drain in too. Thankfully I have a million pillows on the hotel bed, so I'm sleeping sitting up too. {)i(} Sent from my iPhone using VST {)i(}

I am scheduled for October 8th. I have pushed this off 3x to make sure that this is what I really want to do. Family & friends have mixed feelings but ultimately' date=' its me. I've been big my entire life. God is transforming me spiritually & mentally. The surgery is the physical part of my transformation. Just like anything else when dealing with God, I'm walking out on faith. I'm new to this forum so let me know how it goes for you.[/quote'].

How did it go, Cokie? I hope you finally went through with it!
