elleinfl 17 Posted November 20, 2013 Hey guys.... Just found that the app was moved. Haven't chacked-in in a while. Got a call from the hospital today, registering me. let my store managers and all my teams know these past few days of my up coming surgery. So things are starting to get real! I have my pre-op appointment on Dec 3rd, and surgery scheduled for Dec 20th. I am so happy to be having the surgery. I have been smoke free for 23 days. It's been tough, really tough. But it's getting easier, No more nicotine fits, which my kids are happy about. I was miserable the first week! I can't wait to be 100% more healthy! I'm trying.

Got a call from the hospital for a PreOp class on Friday! Excited yet nervousiI'm nervous too but I think it's more a healthy appreciation for the seriousness of our decision to embrace this journey. The discomfort we will experience for a short time only leads to a lifetime of realizing the dream of healthy living. God has a purpose for our lives and He wouldn't lead us to this point if He didn't have great plans for our life ahead. Stay focus and keep your eyes on His purpose for your new, thinner, healthier life! God bless, Sandy 1 sandisleeve reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HeroOfThisStory 24 Posted November 21, 2013 My surgery is December 11th. Endoscopy Friday and one more nutrition visit for all my post op instructions (as if it hadn't been instilled in me 1000 other times)! :-) Super nervous but I had an hour long interview over the phone with one of the nurses that will be at my beacon call in the hospital and she basically said to just free myself of worry and let it be. Eekk 20 days, fellow 12/11's! 1 DelayedGratification reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hopeful4Change 4 Posted November 21, 2013 YEA BUDDY!!!! Just got my surgery date. December 18!!! I completed all the tests and medically supervised diet, got all my clearances - finally, that took 8 months because sleep test slowed me down by a month. My surgeon's office is going to submit all to insurance tomorrow and barring any last minute obstacle I am set for December 18. Dr. Paul Thodiyil is doing my surgery at NY methodist Hospital. He is doing it laproscopically and with robotic assistance it's called DaVinci Surgery. I am so psyched. The day before surgery I am going to take some before pics and all measurements - I want to document my entire journey. I feel so blessed to be on this journey!! 1 DelayedGratification reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
