Thanks for the post! I am fascinated reading the pre-op diet posts and the less than 4 days out posts. I have a ways to go yet, 4-6 months, and this really helps me realize I am doing the right thing. I want to know the good, bad, and ugly of it all. Thanks, and keep us updated, OK?

Thanks for your story! I have a fascination just now for the pre-op diet stories and the less than 4 days post-op stories. It really helps to calm the nerves being able to read what others are going through, no matter if it is good or bad. keep posting! I have another 4-6 months to go. It seems like forever right now.

I know exactly what you mean. I started this process last year by going to a seminar. Everything was ok until the seminar. Then my husband guilted me into changing my mind. I have regretted it ever since. My mom lives with us and is 88 and eats like a bird, so her advice every day is just "eat less"! LOL, as if I have not tried that a million times. Well, I went to a seminar today and I have decided to move forward no matter what. I told my husband he could drop me off at the hospital and pick me up when I am discharged. Of course, he has became supportive, but this is just because he thinks I will change my mind again. Little does he know how determined I am. He is overweight with Type 2 diabetes which is under control with pills, so he doesn't understand why I can't just be the way I am as I, like you, have no comorbidities. I am happy with me, but I am not happy with my body. And, I want to be done with everything that hasn't worked for the last 15 yrs. I am ready for a lifestyle change, not just another diet. I am glad I found this site so I can talk to people who will not judge me and try to talk me into yet another diet and excercise program. Thanks all!
