Does anyone get all of their supplements and vitamins from Costco? If so what do you get?

How do I get and invite to the fb group?

Congratulations you look amazing. And I LOVE your new dress.

I understand how you feel. I went though the same thing last January. I was rushed through and had so much uneasiness about it. So overwhelmed I felt u wasn't ready. I ended up canceling and 6 months later I regretted that decision because it was still constantly on my mind and I kept thinking how far on my new journey I would have been. I decided to enjoy summer a wonderful vacation and not let my weight or size hold me back AT ALL. I did things I wouldn't normally do and it was amazing. It then occurred to me that Even though I could still do the things I thought I couldn't I still wanted to lose the weight. I knew I couldn't do it on my own. I am now officially scheduled for Nov 19 and really just try to focus on the positive and the future. Don't over think it. Think about the reasons you even thought of this surgery and why you took that first step and made that appointment. Good luck. Thoughts are with you.

The nurse called and today to switch my date to a week later. I guess the doctor decided he wanted to take a vacation the week of my surgery. I am now Nov 19...

Thoughts and prayers. Glad to hear your night went well. Speedy recovery.

My aunt lives in Ypsilanti. Is that close to you?

I'm Nov 12 also. San Francisco Bay Area

Me too!

I really haven't thought of an actual number I want to reach as a "goal weight". The lowest I can remember being is 185 about 1-2 years after high school. I am 42 now. I guess 150 would be nice. That means I would have to lose 150 lbs... Omg is that even possible???

Meeting with the nutritionist for my last visit (preop/postop Info) next week. I am excited to get all the final Info. Then Nov 12 is right around the corner. Still super nervous but feeling better about everything

I feel the exact same way as you. I have to tell you I did postpone the first time. I was scheduled for last January and I just couldn't go through with it. I genuinely tried. But I could not get past my feelings and I knew I needed to feel excited and more ready. 6 months later u regretted cancel as I had not postponed. I wished I had done it so the decision wasn't still lingering and I would have been on my way to a healthier me. I am now scheduled for the second time and I definitely feel calmer and more ready. And have a slight excited feeling but I still feel the uneasiness and nerves as my mind takes over with all the negative thoughts. I don't know what I will do as I'm still back and forth but like I said not a much as last time. I want to add that I am really worried about the complications. And the long term risks. And yes of course the food and changes needed for success. Good luck. Please message me if you want to chat. I really do understand exactly what you are feeling. Frustrating.

Where in Nor Cal? I'm in Bay Area
