red31 40 Posted September 26, 2013 My day is coming up really quick and I'm getting very nervous!! This will be my first surgery that I've had and I'm just praying it will be okay. I have been planning this for such a long time, now that I'm almost there I'm scared. Is anyone else feeling like this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jwink 20 Posted September 26, 2013 red31, I have had surgeries in the past and I'm still feeling scared. I think it is a mix of excitement and worry. But it will be ok. This is becoming a common surgery and I'm sure you have done a lot of research before now. We are going to be great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fit2btied 122 Posted September 26, 2013 I got my surgery moved to the 9th! Much better for my kids schedule, so excited that I'm officially less than 2 weeks away. 1 AngelaTX reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
back2barb78 890 Posted September 26, 2013 Had my Workshop and Dr. Visit yesterday..... My initial visit I was at 397lbs and yesterday's weigh in I was at 365lbs my BMI went down from 58 to 51. I started my liquid diet yesterday and feeling pretty good today! I'm working on the sip sip sip thing that's going to be a big one for me! My pre-op weight they want me at 330lbs so I'm confident it won't be a problem... Great job!! That is wonderful progress {)i(} Sent from my iPhone using VST {)i(} Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

back2barb78 890 Posted September 26, 2013 Wow that is great. Can you give any good tips for the pre-op diet. I start mine on Monday for 2 weeks. Surgery is October 15th I'm just doing what my NUT told me shakes throughout the day, unlimited leafy greens (lettuce, kale, broccoli), calorie free dressing, and Water. I'm also drinking Isopure zero carb Protein Drinks. I'm sure it will probably slow down as I keep going. {)i(} Sent from my iPhone using VST {)i(} Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
