I'm so excited, I just can't hide it

I'm about to lose control and I think I like it

Just got excepted for surgery, it will be on Feb 6th, 2009

Have to meet with surgeons, nutritionist and others?

Insurance will pay for lap band or by pass. I’m leaning towards lap band.

Any suggestions?

Merry Christmas

My surgery date is February 9th I'm excited. I'm doing the lap-band because I didn't feel comfortable re-arranging my organs. Let me know what you choose.

How is it sexist? "Foxes" is for both men and women. As in, "Robby Benson is such a FOX!"

(I think I may have just dated myself...:Yawn:)

I'm having mixed emotions, I'm excited to change my life, but at the same time terrified because I've never had surgery and I'm a baby with pain.

Relax,,,It was a joke......My wife calls me her "Grey Fox"!!!!

I was just trying to bring a little humor into something that, for at least, I am a little apprehensive.......

I am beyond excited! And nervous. :cool:

I have never had surgery before and my number one fear is waking up with a breathing tube down my throat! I know, out of everything I could be worrying about, I pick that! :regular_smile:
