Yes, as TexasMeg stated, the two weeks after surgery will be tougher in another way. You will need to look deep within yourself and find the strength you need to begin this journey correctly starting right now. Ask yourself and write down the reasons you are doing this! Remind yourself of those reasons every time it gets tough. You are not alone, many of us have traveled this same road...if we can do u can too!! It will get easier, and make sure you have a good support system at home to help you along the way, it makes things much easier...trust me!! Remember this process is to start your body on a new way of eating and thinking to help prepare it for the next stage to come. The more disciplined you are now, the easier it will be later on to continue this discipline in other ways. Be tough, you can get through this leg of the journey

Me TOO!! So excited and nervous all at the same time :\ Excited to have this done, am looking forward to the future and what it holds for me and my family. Nervous because the last time I had a surgery (non weight surgery btw) I had some difficulties with getting sick and wanting to sleep so much afterwards...will be talking to the hospital about that for pre-op appt. My surgery date is 8/5/13! Looking for a support person/group for this journey
