Surgery 12/4 and I need a Buddy

[Amanda Lee1383837845 2]

I'm excited, anxious, scared, nervous, happy, sad..... well you name it, I have been feeling it. My surgery date is 12/4 and I'm looking for a friend that might be having surgery around the same time. I don't want to go thru this alone. I'd like someone to share my feelings with and help them cope as well.

You can start dieting anytime! The more you get off before surgery, the better off you'll be. Good luck and good health to you!

This is my date as well! I'm having mixed emotions too. Mostly nervous, and every time I think about it I get butterflies in my stomach. D'oh lol

I am December 2nd. Right now more excited than nervous but I am sure that will change as things get closer! Would love a couple of buddies that first week of dec!

My date is also Dec 4!!

I'm excited and nervous. I'm terrified about the pre op diet and have been eating more lately (and gained a few lbs) in anticipation of it. Has anyone else experienced this?

I gained before attending orientation... But since orientation I lost 14 lbs in two weeks... But now I'm stuck... I have to lose 10 to get my surgery scheduled and then 5 more before surgery and I'm stuck!!!! My dr won't let me do a 2 week liquid diet yet... They want me eating real food. . Ugghhhhhhh 10 lbs should be easy but I'm not doing so good :-(!
