chrys129 208 Posted October 3, 2015 Nerves have been up all week but for some reason I feel much more at peace this weekend. Maybe I got it out of my system. Hehe. At any rate I'm sure I'll be nervous as heck again on Monday morning. Surgery is 2:15 pm Monday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RDub 57 Posted October 4, 2015 What thing are you looking forward to after you lose the weight? One of mine is shopping and not having to be limited to just the XXL size and that size has a very limited number in stock. Searching the shelves for the biggest size or looking for just the longest belts is what I want to leave in the past. What about you guys? Looking forward to finally getting a new job! Everything I have applied for in the past few years I have a great phone interview then the in person interview is over in 5 minutes and suddenly I'm not right for the job even though I looked great on paper and sounded great on the phone.

Shakti 55 Posted October 4, 2015 I'm Monday October 5. Finishing nearly 2 week of Optifast and will be on second day of Clear Liquids tomorrow. I am nervous although I have thought about this for such a long time. I've been so hungry through the liquid phase, I can't actually imagine not being hungry!

Ragedddy 73 Posted October 4, 2015 Well I am a newbie and obviously having trouble posting. My surgery is october 5th. I am very nervous. I have done only so so on liquids and Protein with little weight loss. I am always afraid that after going thru all this it won't work. I need to keep a positive thought tho as I am sure is half the battle. My family is supportive. Plan to pack a few things tomorrow and get ready. I still can't quite believe it's going to happen til I actually wake up and it's done Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
