It is Almost Time!

Mar 14, 2008

My date was changed from May 7 to March 17!  YIPEE!  So here it is Friday, March 14 - 3 days away.  How do I feel?  Nervous, excited, calm and peaceful all in one!

I had my Pre Op appointment Monday and they demanded I schedule a stress test and get my blood pressure down.  My bp is down and I am not at all concerned about this.  I had the stress test done yesterday and still don't know the results.  I have called the doctor's office but as of 11:06 am no one is in the office and no one has called me back.  I am working on the assumption that no news is good news!

I am having my "last supper" tomorrow - am having difficulty deciding what I want though.  At this moment I am leaning heavily on Friendly's.  The kids want to go see Horton Hears a Who and I thought that would be a relaxing day for me.  My goal the next two days is to relax and enjoy!

It is amazing that the day is almost here.  When I first had my date in May it seemed so far away and unreal.  I talked in if I get skinny and not when.  Now with surgery just hours away I am beginning to talk when I get skinny.  My DH says I will need to learn to think as a skinny person (which I have NEVER been).  I almost picked up the latest issue of Figure the other day and caught myself saying I won't need this as I will be skinny!  I look at that as my first NSV!

I will post as soon as I can and let everyone know how it went!

Have a great weekend!

I Got A Date!

Jan 14, 2008

May 7, 2008 is the date!!  I will have to keep myself very busy so I don't go crazy waiting.  Patience is not a strong virtue for me.  But it will be here soon enough.

Have a great day!

Have been approved now waiting.......

Jan 09, 2008

Well, I have been approved for the open RNY since December 17, 2007.  I was told I would get my appointment in the mail.  So now I wait.

I was told that the last surgery the hospital scheduled was for April 30 and that there were two people ahead of me.  So I am guess the middle of May.  How will I stand the wait?!?!

I hope I get my letter soon.  At least then I will know it is "official" and I will have a date!

I would appreciate any prayers, good thoughts or sacrifices to the scheduling gods to get this letter.
