I am Oct 2nd and starting to get nervous. I'm incredibly excited but also nervous

I'm scheduled for Oct 15th in Tijuana! I'm more nervous about flying to San Diego that the surgery itself! Are you guys ready to get healthy, fit and/or skinny?! I know I am! I have been overweight my whole life and I'm ready to be a new me!

[twirlyhead620 20]

Couldn't be more ready!

Im scheduled at Mexicali bariatric center in Mexico. The flight doesnt scare me. Not even sure whats scaring me. Ha ha omg I am so ready to be fit and skinny!!! I have been my whole life also except for maybe 3 years. My 14 year old daughter is so excited for me but has two stipulations. 1. I cant have a thigh gap (cause even though she is thin she doesnt have one) and 2. I cant be hotter than her. Ha ha love it. Since we are practically twins aside from size and age , pretty sure I will just be "as cute" as her . Lol

Thigh gap? Ha, my daughters and I call this air gap! Love it.

I'm not sure if my thighs will ever NOT touch lol! And I know what you mean @@JerryLynn my Mom and I are like that except I'm 26 and she's 54. We're both getting it done and on the same day. But I've always dreamed of being thin and I can't even imagine myself any smaller than a 12! I'm also nervous about the hair loss more than anything, even flying! I have long thinning hair as it is and I've been growing it out and I'm afraid I'll have to cut it after a while.

Im getting a short spiky cut to hide it for the first year. This is the one I'm thinking of:)

I am SOOOOO ready! My date is October 20th in Boston. Have already lost 10 pounds and still dropping. Can't wait to be able to fit in auditorium and theater seats (Son does theater) and feel comfortable being the assitant coach on my daughter's softball team!

Hi my date is Oct 1st and I start my liquid diet tomorrow. Im seeing a lot of posts about hair loss ! Is that true ? No one told me that was a side effect. MY hair is mid back, blonde and healthy--and it took a long time to get it there.

[SmashMouth88 23]

I haven't had my surgery yet @@Lin1738 but I've read a lot about the hair loss that comes with having the surgery. And like you my hair is that long, actually a little longer I'd say, and it's already thinnish around my temples. The loss is usually from months 3-6 from what I've read. It is an unfortunate side effect but I am mentally and emotionally prepared to cut my hair and/or wear a wig (since it will be getting cool anyways) if need be. I was pretty shocked when I found out but it's worth it to lose the weight and live a longer healthier life with a new body.
