Tomorrow is the day



Recommended Posts

I start my 2 week liquid tomorrow and tonight I am going out for my last dinner. I am scared, nervous and excited all at the same time. I have a lot of anxiety also- questioning myself, can I do this? Can anybody relate?

Yep, and yes you can. I did it!

The worst part in many ways was the pre-op diet because you are hungry like a lion. After surgery at least you have almost no hunger.

The first couple weeks are recovery mode but after that it's a ramp up to a much better you. I feel better then I felt 10 years ago. The 63 lbs lost in 13 weeks is physically liberating. I can't even describe how good I feel physically. I could just run the upstairs just for fun. Before, I made sure I had all I needed when I went downstairs in the morning and my kids were the one taking and getting things for me. I avoided stairs like the plague.

Good luck

I can relate. My last meal I went with my siblings and thought it was like " the last supper". Enjoy your dinner tonight. I am 3 weeks since surgery and glad I may the decision. The 2 weeks will go by fast.

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