    Oh and here is the worst photo anyone has on here! Taken last summer daughter took it. This pic made my mind up! I was on the fence for a long time. I really thought they deleted it once I told them that but I just found it on my iPad. I'm getting this enlarged, yes making it even bigger to remind me how absolutely disgusting I am. I know no one would have the nerve to post such a pic I should win a prize I think for the ugliest pic or for the most nerve. Lol just a good thing I live in the woods and no neighbors to see this.

    Starting to Panic

    Hi Mercedes I'm Debbie from Pa. Having my surgery on the 25th of march also. Im On the 2 shakes and a supper also allowed a protein bar in there . . I'm also very hungry. I have had to put in A cheese stick low fat in there to help me out. Not easy I know . I have read many posts on here and it seems so many revisions from band to rny has been done. So I wouldn't think it would be my fault it didn't work. Just to many others out there that it didn't work for. I had the 3 month program to finish . I don't know if I'm making the right decision either. I have talked to others and they all felt the same way. I'm nervous also so your not alone. All I see is everyone says on here they made the right decision to have it done. They just would have done it sooner. I hope I'll be one of them and you to . Stay in touch with me ok

    Long time lurker

    It's funny how we are all different with our thoughts. I tell everyone I really don't care who knows that I'm trying to make myself healthier. I have a question. Can we suck on hard candies sugar free of course? I never heard anything about that.

    Opposes....... That may not be what happens to us. I guess it's just fear of the unknown. I figure I. Done with weight watchers no more of that especially after the last time I was there the instructor said " oh you'll be here forever" . That. Really hurt and not like I wasn't successful I had lost 72 lbs at one point. Just did the yo yo stuff. So that really did it. I pray this works and I can do it all. I'm concerned with the liquid diet for 2 weeks prior hope I can do it. I'm nervous about it all.

    I think I'll have second thoughts till they wheel me into surgery. How can we be sure we just go on what ever we are told . and then that may not be what happens to u
  15. Hi Pam! I'm going to be 56 this year and I'm having surgery on march 25th. I asked my dr. If Im to old (that's what my husbands says) and the dr said no. He's done it on people much much older than us and would still recommend it to me if I was 10 years older. He says ill say I should have done it 10 years ago and I'll feel much younger.. I hope because I take care of my 2 grandchildren 2 and 4 years old they live with me. At the end of the day like right now I'm tired. I just want to move better and I really do want to look better i hate how I look and of course the health benefits. I just hope I'm feeling good soon after, I only have a plan for the first week I'm home my daughter will take off of work. Can people tell more what its like those 2-3 weeks , are you sick? Do you just want to lay? Can you move about easily? I hear your just exhausted is that true? What would you suggest for me. And that's if I have no complications. Any info is appreciated.

No support from my husband so if I have issues after ill hear of of " I told you so's".
