First of all CONGRATS!! It's exciting! Allow yourself to he happy about this! I have 3 pieces of advice for anyone undergoing this surgery: 1. Be fiercely protective of yourself. Don’t let ANYONE stand in your way. We become overweight because we’ve put others needs before our own. Get selfish if you have to! What you’re doing is for YOU and you should be proud of that 2. Follow Doctors orders to the letter. Protein, fluids, exercise, dietary restrictions – do exactly as he says. And take advance of the first 6 months! It’s when weight loss is most rapid. Celebrate the little accomplishments. (I cried when my BMI was “obese” instead of “morbidly obese.” Haha!) 3. Enjoy the journey. YOU GO GIRL! You've earned this!
