What are u doing to get urself through this...my surgery date isn't until 2/20 an I already can't sleep, get chest pains thinking about it etc...I want this don't get me wrong but I don't know how to deal with it all?? Anyone else??

I'm on day 3 and yes the 1st 2 day were the worst...but I made it thru and so will you...I wouldn't risk taking anything this close to your surgery that could possibly cause a complication. If we all can do it so can you jus drink lots of flavored water it's really helping me (you know those 5 calorie packs you can put in your water bottle) You can do it be strong!!!

My Therapist spoke with my Surgeon last night that stated since i'm on Zoloft and Certraline that there could be possible bleeding during the surgery (which I'm assuming if I started to loose alot of blood they would replace) so of course no i'm worried...both the surgeon and my dr are not concerned but had to mention it because there is a chance. The surgeon said he's done the procedure on plenty of patients on anti-depression and anxiety meds. But i'm scared enough about this as it is and now this...Jus wondering if anyone was told the same thing from their surgeon?

So you all stayed on your medications prior to surgery?? Or you dr hasn't said it mY be a prob being on these meds during surgery?

Ohhh I'm down!! When we all get to our goal lol good luck to everyone...thanks for letting me vent today I'm sure it won't be the last u hear from me lol :/

I'm so crabby, so hungry, I've had a headache since last night, and oh yea did I mention how crabby I am?? Ughhhhhhhh i just feel so tired and empty...these slim fast high protein low carb shakes SUCK!!! Well will all of this go away??

We just have to keep pushing SweetnCurvy...it'll all be worth it in the end...just think about today and worry about 2mrw when it gets here...

Gohead Ms. Sassime85!! That's the attitude we all need to have!! If no one has told you today I'm extremely proud of you!! Keep up the unbelievable work!!!

I'm sorry, good luck!!

queenp160 I sent u a msg!!

I decided on Dr. Lutfi I did alot of research an he's the best (not one bad review) an he teaches other dr's around the US on how to preform the surgery thru in incision. I'm glad I found him

You'll do great!!! Best of luck

I'm so blessed that I was approved an I'm confident in my doctor (he teaches dr's all over the u.s. how to before this surgery thru the belly button) but I'm TERRIFIED!!!! My surgery is schedule for Feb 20th. I have to do a two week liquid diet post-op which I start on the 6th!! I'm so scared I just want everything to go well with no hiccups Pls Lord watch over me!!!

Ugh you poor thing I also suffer from anxiety an im sure the closer I to my surgery (feb 20th) the worse it will get. Just keep telling yourself it'll be fine an all be worth it...literally jus keep repeating it over an over try not to think negative I know it's easier said then done but these procedures are so common now a days an the anesthesiologist gets paid a TON of money to keep us safe. I promise ill keep u in my prayers... Best of luck I know it'll all turn out great!!

I'm feb 20th CONGRATS!!!
