  1. Worries

    · JPSnAZ · 12/26/2012 06:17

    Although I am SO excited to get this surgery, I think about all the things that will change and it worries me. So many things that will be a pain in the ass, such as no fluids 30 min before or 30 min after eating, vitamins for the rest of your life, no more soda or carbonation. I normally chug tons of water through the day and feel like I HAVE to drink with my meals.
    I just feel I wont ever be able to eat or drink normally again.
     
    I havent gone to my seminar yet (in one week!!) so I havent gotten "the facts" from the actual doctors yet but everything Ive read on this site makes me feel like I will be deprived. But I guess thats because Im still in my fatty ways.
     
    Maybe its because Im hungry.

  2. GETTIN' ANTSY!

    · JPSnAZ · 12/22/2012 06:45

    12 more days until I go to my seminar.
     
    I am SO ready to get this process started. I am on this site everyday.. A LOT. I see everyone posting about their losses and seeing AMAZING before & after pics and I am so ready for it to be ME!!!!!!!! Im getting so impatient & antsy, its driving me crazy. Now that Ive made up my mind that Im for sure doing this, Im ready to get this show on the road.
     
    I really hope that it wont be too long after the seminar that I get to start meeting with a nutritionist and get my 6m pre-op diet going so I can get everything off to the insurance. I know that it wont be til the end of the 6m, but the sooner the better for everything. This 6m is going to drive me crazy too (the waiting) but ya gotta go what ya gotta do.
     
    Other than being so antsy, Im really glad that C_TimesThree & I are doing this together (we ARE best friends after all...) It will be nice to have someone to go through this very UNIQUE journey with. There isnt ANYONE in my life that I would be able to talk to about this that would understand or has been through it. So I think its just so wonderful! (We MUST take a full body before & after pic together!!)
     
    I guess thats all I have for today!
