Oct28 the day of my surgery. Having the gastric bypass. Really feeling the nerves. I have very mixed emotions but the emotion that really stands out is excitement. I'm so ready for my new life to start! I'm 42 years old Married and a mother of two. My kids are young a 10 yr old girl and 6 year old boy. They are very active and I need to keep up. I owe it to them. They are my everything and the are wonderful kids. Starting my liquid diet on the 16th and hoping for a good outcome.
