Pre Op today

Thread Starter  

I'm a soon to be banster in the Austin area. My insurance company (Definity Health Care) approved my surgery on February 19th and my Pre Op doctor visit is today!!! I'm so excited and nervous and scared and happy ALL AT ONCE. It looks like it will be about 2 more weeks before the surgery as I've got to do the 2 week pre op diet and I'm so emotional right now, I can barely keep it together @ work. I want to tell everyone while at the same time, I want to keep it a secret. I hope to have the surgery date by COB tomorrow (crossing my fingers). Does anyone have any tips to share?
Thanks!

Hello

I went for my pre-op today and I am scheduled for my band on 3/17/08. I am on liquids with one meal in the evening but can not exceed 1000 cals a day. I started walking 30 minutes a day which is a challenge but okay. I am trying to keep my mind focused on me and waiting to see the results week by week but trying to focus on me for a change. Try to stay focus on the goal and you are going to do really well!
