Ok I was ecstatic yesterday that I had my date. But today reality is setting in. I cant believe I am doing this. Dont get me wrong im not backing out and I am excited but its kind of scary.

Maybe I should window shop for clothes and a bathing suit.

I am thinking the exact same thing.

I looked around on pinterest at skinny cloths and fashions and youre right it does def help.

There was a thread on visual rewards and she had two glass containers. One w marbles. One marble for every pound she loses. When she loses a pound she will put that amount of marbles in the empty jar. The picture was pretty. It kind of motivated me. I think im gonna do it!

Good luck March 19th sleevers! This was my lucky day 1 year ago and I have been one lucky lady. Starting weight was 250, day of surgery 237, and my current weight is 163. I have had 0 complications. I would say the only little problem I had was my hair did fall out a little between months 6-9 but it was my fault b/c Protein Shakes get OLD but happy to tell you it stopped and I did not go bald:-) All in all this was the best decision of my life! I would do it over again in a heartbeat! Good luck and don't be nervous! It's really not a bad recovery! I took a week off from work but could of gone back in like 3 days! I have a cushy office job though... Anyways I hope this helps ease some of your anxiety:-)

Thanks for the positive post! I hope all of us 19th'rs have the same experience. I am on day 7 of the preop diet now and while I know that I really am not truly hungry (I got over that on day 4) I really want some Mexican cheese dip and chips. I'm now in the head hunger battle. 12lbs down so far on this pre op is a nice weapon to have in the battle though...
