Sleevie.Nicks 27 Posted July 10, 2015 (edited) So I was going through one clinic & they had more pre-op qualifications then I thought I could handle, come to find out this other clinic aren't asking for nearly as much so I will be able to have my surgery sooner!! I can't wait I am so excited!!! I started this process last year and was 3/4ths the way done all I had to do was lose 10% body fat and move on to the surgery!! However I got cold feet needless to say I had decided I wasn't ready!! But now I am super ready and I can't wait!!!! I don't have as much pre-op qualifications so it will be quick from this point and I am so happy that I am ready for this step finally!!

ProudGrammy 8,322 Posted July 10, 2015 happy that ready for this step finally!! @@Sleevie.Nicks that is great i've heard others get cold feet right before surgery then they stop the process no one should have this surgery if they are too scared, nervous not sure of having surgery so you stopped the plan for surgery then after awhile you realized you really want to go ahead sounds like NOW you are ready keep reading the boards you'll hear about lots of things you need pre-op and {PO) discussions about things you hadn't thought of questions will be answered you ask your questions make sure you are prepared for the big day read, read, read look into some books ie bariatric surgery for dummies they also have a cook book look at U-tube flood of information allll over buy Protein shakes don't buy too many ahead of time taste buds change what you might like now possibly you won't like PO happy you "came to your senses" and are proceeding with surgery good luck kathy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Candidate 3,215 Posted July 10, 2015 There's a sweet release that can never be matched when you make the decision to proceed with surgery, and then realize suddenly one day that magically it has slipped over from possibility to reality! You are well on your way to a whole new life full of promise and happiness. Never look back because your glorious future lies ahead! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
