Three Anxiety Filled Days Left



Recommended Posts

It seemed as May 22 would never get here but now I have three days left and I feel like it came too soon. I have lost 28 pounds during the pre op diet and I sometimes think that maybe I should have tried a clear liquid diet before. But hey I already know that I would have put back on twice the weight when I had finished with it. Anyway, I have five kids ages 15, 12, 11, 8 and 7 and I am trying to make sure things are in order for them and my husband before I go in. It is getting overwhelming because my energy level has been zapped due to the liquid diet. I am going to keep busy until my day comes. I truly appreciate the frankness and honesty that has been given in this forum. It has given me a lot of education and motivation. Thank you guys!!!!!

*hugs* I'll be a day ahead of you! I'm not sleeping well myself (just got up at 3am) with the nerves.

We'll do great!

You made this decision for the betterment of yourself which directly benefits your family. I think thats motivation enough. You'll make it through just fine, I'm sure of it.

Chin up!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
