Got My Surgery Date - May 9, '16

[newstacey 18]

I am 47 Yes old and have finally received my date of surgery (May 9). I start pre-op diet on Apr 28. I'm close to 270 lbs at 4'10" and have been over 200lbs for at least half my life. Feeling overwhelmed. Going with my Mom to a support group at the hospital next week. I just want to make sure I have everything I need to be successful. And nervous how this will impact my work schedule (most days 12-15hr days). Ugh.
