Love your honesty, Nyelah! Thanks for sharing as I have had the same thoughts lately. Finally, after 30 years of failed dieting.....I get it! I am not yet to the preop diet but went on a no carb no sugar diet yesterday getting ready. I have had all the testing done and am scheduled for my Nut and Psych eval on 8/4/15. The surgeon said after those we will be ready to schedule the procedure. I am excited, nervous and scared, but ready for this new chapter in my life. Looking forward to the new thinner and healthier me!!
