brijo83 8 Posted January 6, 2018 my surgery date is February 8th! i'm mostly excited and a bit nervous...very anxious for the day to get here. The last thing I have to do is a stress test which is scheduled for January 22nd at my pre-op appointment. I've already started my pre-op diet to get my BMI below 50. so far so good....if anyone is on IG, I just started one to document everything, short_sleeve_me Good luck to everyone!! 1 TooNuNu reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aklilac 2 Posted January 9, 2018 My surgery is on Feb. 19th in Mexico. I share the same feelings about being nervous and even sometimes talking myself out of this. I had started the Paleo diet just before Thanksgiving and have lost 12lbs. When I think that I don't need surgery, I just have to remember that I have been dieting on and off since 5th grade and I'm now 57! Time to take control! 1 TooNuNu reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TooNuNu 11 Posted January 18, 2018 So, I've been so anxious. Had some bad weather in Jersey a couple of my appointments were cancelled. Now I have to rush to fit everything in. So far, my date remains 2/7 and today I go for my ultrasound. Yesterday, the surgeons office submitted my paperwork for approval. It took like a week to get it submitted because the Nutritionist didn't send the right information. Anxiety is definitely creeping in. Right now I feel like, if things can go bad they will but I am a fighter and I want this soooo bad! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krista27 341 Posted January 18, 2018 My surgery is now scheduled for 2/09/18. I am beyond ready for it. I was originally scheduled for today 1/18 but got sick and it had to be rescheduled. 1 TooNuNu reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
