Since I have been told that my surgery will be on the 18th, it seems as if time has slowed down.

This week-end has just dragged on and on!

I think I'm gonna go crazy here. Was it like this for others?

Can someone please kick some clocks to get the time moving again!!!

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Hey. Simmer down! use this time to get yourself together mentally. I WISH time stood still between getting my date and my actual day. Everything went so fast I was an emotional wreck the day of....by the way you're having surgery on my daughter's birthday. that fact alone makes me confident in the fact that you will be fine. 1 week from tomorrow. I am so happy that things are working out for you. Cherish this time.

When you look back, it'll have gone by in a wink of the eye.
Yes, I checked what MsVickie posted, though I didn't reply in the thread. I didn't see anything really bad in the lable, so I gues the choice will be up to whether you actually like the taste or not.

(((((HUGS)))) Keeping you in my prayers!

The 18th will be here before you know it. My last week went by in a blur. Srocking up on all my clear fluids, packing for the hospital, finishing stuff up at work. Making sure my bed was going to be comfortable. lots of extra pillows to sleep on etc.....before you know it it will be the 18th. Good luck.
