And I am scared out of my MIND. I know this is the right choice for me and my family, but when I even think about how only a few short hours from now I'll have to say see ya later to my toddler who is so attached to me...I cry. I can't help but be afraid that I'm about to kill myself and leave my daughter without a mom. Please send positive thoughts my way so that I can relax and do what I know in my brain is best!

Well, I did it!! Sore and dealing with gas bubbles, but mostly ok! Thank you for the encouraging words, all. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you. It really is all for her and my husband. It doesn't really help that this is also my first night away from my baby as well. I'm trying to pull it together, lol. Maybe they will give me something for anxiety. We'll see. Thanks again for your kind words. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

First of all I am super new. My bypass is scheduled for 06.09 and I'm currently on my two week preop diet. I'm also 24 year old type 1 diabetic. Bypass won't cure me but it will help resistance to the insulin I do give myself. So my question is if there are any other type 1s who can tell me how they got on post op managing blood sugar, etc? I'm on an insulin pump & I'm already battling some lows with the preop diet which has me eating very few carbs. Any advice or tips are welcome from type 1 or even 2 diabetics really. This is my main worry going forward. All the doctors & nurses can really tell me is that I will just need to scale back my daily insulin big time after surgery. That doesn't make me feel very prepared. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
