Hey Lisa,

Keep your chin up !!!! From what I've read on here from other people it is going to be great. My surgery is March 11th. I just keep my focus on how much better I am going to feel. Keep looking forward !!!

Hi Lisa,

My surgery date is also March 10, so I know what you're going through. I start my liquid diet on Tues. and I'm worried that I won't be able to stick with it. You should join the March 2009 group here, so you can talk to others who are about to start this adventure. Keep your hopes up--I know we can make this work! Good Luck!

Laweezmi,

How do you get to the March 09 group? I looked under social groups and can't seem to find it.

Thanks

On the main forum page, click on Introductions. Then scroll down on the left side you'll see "groups on a month by month basis" or something like that; click there and you'll find March 09.

It's normal!!! It get's even more so as the day gets closer, but it's also very exciting to know that you are making such a significant change in your life!! Your health is going to improve so much in such a short time. You will look and feel better, your self esteem will be better, your energy higher..........focus on all the positive things to come!! Also, the surgery is a piece of "cake"!! Congratulations!!
