Lola4rmKona 82 Posted April 10, 2017 Hi everyone. I have been on here quite a while but did not post much aside from congratulating others on their journeys. I guess it never really felt real for me until now. Started this journey on November last year and got the last of my testing done by beginning of March. Submitted and approved week and a half later. Had to wait for surgeon's schedule to open. Surgery is tomorrow and I am feeling quite calm. I did my preop liquid diet the past 2 weeks and have gotten past the anxious state. I am wondering now if I am a bit too calm or will nerves kick in later? I had gallbladder removed late last year and egd was also under anesthesia. Am I feeling too comfy because of that? Is this even normal? Just can't wait to be on the loser's bench and start on my rebirth! Good luck to those still waiting. Your time will come.

When you are ready you will feel it. I have had second third and 10th thoughts since preop liquid but keeping goals in mind and watching others journeys to success here and on YouTube has helped tremendously.
