I've got my surgery date! July 3rd!!!!

[Here_I_Go_Again 62]

I'm so excited, my surgery date was set today for 7/3/17 with Dr. Illan! I'm sure some are thinking, seriously around a holiday? Well I personally can't think of a better way to Celebrate Independence Day! A new day and a fresh start! I am also hopeful & excited to make some surgery buddies and share our progress. In 7 short weeks; although, in some ways it seems so far away, I will be recovering and on my way to the much smaller me. Woohoo!

I will be there and my procedure is on the 4th! I'm going alone and a little nervous about that aspect. I would love to be your surgery buddy!

Absolutely! I'll be there by myself as well. I would love to have a surgery buddy! Are you flying in early or day of? I decided to arrive Sunday. I've read several posts about how flights were cancelled or delayed recently. I want to get there and be relaxed, well as much as I can! I'm Lori btw. 😊

I plan on flying in the day of, I haven't booked my flight yet...but I did some looking and it seems like it shouldn't be an issue. I'm relieved to have found someone on here that will be there the same time! We just recently moved and my husband is still within his 90 day probationary period and can't really take time off work to go with.

I'll be alone too.. my boyfriend was supposed to go, we even have our flights booked, but he's lost his mind and is so convinced that I'm going to get a crazy ego and start seeing other people once I've lost weight so I am sort of pushing him away. I don't want him to even go now.

Ugh! That's frustrating. It's crazy how insecure men can be sometimes. I'm sorry you are dealing with that.

That's exactly how I feel. He's projecting something that he thinks will happen and instead of working together on the changes, he's sabotaging our relationship now. It's really sad too because we've been together for two-and-a-half years, we've talked about buying a house and getting married, we looked at engagement rings he has bonded with my kids and now in the last week I have not heard from him one time. He won't even answer my phone calls but then he'll send me a text like everything's fine. Then the next minute to me be could find a younger, hotter woman anytime.. I honestly don't even get it and it's hard to understand but I feel like I'm not going to put up with it I can do way better and I can be alone I'm perfectly okay with that.
