Mine is tomorrow too!! My emotions and nerves are all over the place!! I almost cancelled yesterday!! Good luck to everyone!! Can't wait to hear about everyone's new healthier lives! ????

That's what I've been trying to focus on! All the clothes I'll get to wear again and the new clothes I can get plus the benefits of becoming healthier!

Thank you for sharing your story with me. I'm sorry you had the panic attacks but glad to know I'm not the only one. I've been praying all week for God to be by my side to guide the surgeon's hands and to get me through it. Congrats on your progress! Keep us posted!

Have you tried fitness pal?

I go in on Monday, have to be at the hospital at 6am! I've had 2 panic attacks and almost cancelled it today!! So nervous!

I'm such a nervous wreck! I go in for surgery on April 7th, a week from today and I am getting very nervous. I'm scared I'm making the wrong decision, scared of having a lot of pain, scared of dying!! Help! I have two kids and every time I look at them I feel guilty I'm going to do this and then never see them again

So I'm scheduled surgery on Monday 4/7 and now that I've read some seriously horrible stories on here, I'm considering canceling my surgery! I was already scared and now I'm petrified! I want to do this for a better quality of life not to be sick or die!!! I don't know what to do now...I'm so confused and afraid to make the wrong decision!

I go on Monday morning too!!!! Aaaahhh!!!

Enjoy your time in Disney & keep us posted!!

Thank you! I will update as soon as I can!

I am trying and thank you to you and everyone for their support and encouragement!!

Thank you!! All of these positive stories are helping me!!

Thank you!! All of these positive stories are helping me!!

I started my pre op diet on Wednesday, my surgery is Monday 4/7! I'm ok, water, protein shakes, sugar fee jello and sf ice pops! I'm pretty nervous about Monday but I'm pushing through. I'm thinking the weekend is going to be the hardest! Going to keep myself busy cleaning!

Thank you for this! I have had gall bladder surgery and was fine. I actually went back to work the next week! I'm trying to focus on that!

I'm April 7th too and a nervous wreck!

Thank you and best of luck to you too! I'm trying to stay calm and positive but damn it's hard!!! Keep me posted on your progress!!

Definitely!! I need all the support I can get because I seriously considered canceling my surgery last night!

I think you have talked me off my ledge. I know Monday morning I'm going to be a mess but I am trying to believe my life is not supposed to end here with this...but begin a new life!

I've had gall bladder surgery as well but that was 15 years ago. I was feeling better about it and I personally know 1 person who has had the sleeve, a few hon have had gastric bypass and a few who had lapband, they all survived without any major complications. Thanks for all of your advice and support. I was starting to feel better about it until tonight.

The problem is I don't know what my gut is telling me to do! I'm 100 lbs overweight and I've been struggling my whole life with weight! I want to be healthier so I can enjoy life with my girls but I'm so afraid of dying and not being here to see them grow up!

Wow you look awesome! 100 is what need to lose!.

I'm tired of the yo-yo too! I am a teacher and I want to be able to truly enjoy my summers off with my girls without feeling self-conscious at the beaches Water parks and pools!! It seems so drastic yet I personally know quite a few people who have done some sort of wls. Just praying I get through this. Today was my first day on liquid diet, I'm surviving ok. Just wish it was over and I was already home from surgery! Good luck to you and definitely keep me posted!

Congrats on your surgery! So happy to hear you are doing relatively well! My sleeve is scheduled for 4/7 and I'm getting nervous! Good luck on your new journey and keep us posted on your progress!

Thanks! I'm trying to calm myself and all of the reassurances from here is helping!
