Default Finally!! Surgery Tomorrow!!

After 2 devistating cancellations.. I have reached tomorrow-THE BIG DAY!

I am feeling well ( a bit of a stuffy nose still) but nothing major and for the most part I am emotionally ready! I know there is nothing at this point to make them cancel, yet AGAIN! I would just die.

Thank you all so much for your support up until this point. You are all so great. I can't wait to start seeing myself change. My friends after all this too are pretty anxious. My original date being May 23rd and tomorrow of July 7th is a lot of time to be focused on when I get my surgery.. (needless to say the whole eval process), so I will be happy to put my mind to rest about "when it is coming" and be able to focus on the next chapter of the WLS, the part of SEEING RESULTS! yay!

Wish me well.. Thanks again to you all. See you on the otherside!

Love, Julee

Julee I am so happy for you. I know exactly how you feel, my surgery was cancelled like 3 times it was very emotional for me. The last time I went in, it was something that came over me, a feeling of relief and peace. I look forward to calling you a stapler sista.

Of course, silly!! And remember that lap is simply the access to your innards - if you're having RNY, you, too will have staples

I WILL? Nice, I probably should have listened more when they were telling me about the surgery process. I thought I just walked away with 4 suture hole "stab wounds" that are sutured up.

K.. I just copied what you guys had down.. I just know I am having the laparoscopic way vs open. I feel stupid for having to ask with my surgery TOMORROW, but what is RNY?
