Manibeaux, the most important thing to remember on the flight home is to be like a little kid and fidget!! Keep your legs and feet moving and get up once or twice to stretch your legs!! GOOD LUCK in your journey and I hope to see you post some updates!!!

Hi everyone! I received my insurance preapproval and surgery date today.

I could have had it performed on October 31st, but I ultimately went with Friday, November 6th so that I wouldn't miss my daughter's Halloween festivities.

Super excited, but also super nervous.

My clinic requires a 2 week liver shrinking diet, but I think I will do it for 2.5-3 weeks to be on the safe side. So, I guess I'll start that this weekend.

Packerfan, when my girls were that age, that's probably the answer I would have gotten too! LOL But now that they're 44 and 46, they appreciate their old Mom! They do tend to try to boss me around though.

HI Glass!!! I am excited and happy for you!! I had to have my surgery right at Halloween time so I wouldn't be tempted to turn off all the lights in my apartment and binge out one last time on all that GREAT Halloween candy!!

Ma3, GOOD LUCK ON YOUR JOURNEY!!! I hope to see you post your updates on here!!

November 4th for me. Packers fan here too;) I've been going to a monthly support group that like this site has both pre-op and post-op sleevers. All the information has been so valuable and I think it keeps me from being so nervous knowing there is so many success stories.

No, I'm actually an Eagles fan and I live with a Cardinals fan. Not going to be pretty in this house in a couple weeks! LOL

My surgery is scheduled for October 22 and I too am alone as my kids are grown and moved out. Although my son lives nearby with his wife. Doing the two week liquid pre op diet. All tests have been completed waiting on results I of the sleep study. Looking forward to the rest of my life being healthy finally.
