Ahh thanks for your info. It helps so much hearing everyone else's feelings and experiences. When i hear a bad story I have second thoughts and feel like I want to chicken out! I can't. I'm glad you are a wimp and are doing well. I'm a wimp too!!

It sounds like everyone is doing really well. Thank you so much for the info! At this point I just can't imagine going through with it! I guess if I'm just kept on meds ill be more calm?

Good to hear you are doing well Lori!

How far out are you?

Thank you so much for the info!! I am super scared and look up to everyone in post op!!! I have surgery in less then a month I'm just trying to be prepared for anything I can.

This will be my first "real" surgery. I've had 3 wisdom teeth taken out but I really don't count that as surgery. What was the most painful part? Any suggestions beyond sipping and walking?

I confess----- I'm scared to death about having surgery I don't know if I have what it takes to have this

Jodi, why part of nj are u from? I'm in south jersey but going to Jefferson in Philadelphia. Surgery April 2nd. Good luck to you!!

It just bananas cut up and frozen. Then they take them out and throw them in a blender. So it the exact consistency of frozen yogurt. Delish!

Awesome. Great to hear!

Have you ever tried the frozen bananas! Some of the yogurt places carry them. Super yummy. They taste just like frozen yogurt. I'm still in pre-op and was wondering the same. I figured sugar free and a tiny bit. But maybe the banana would be a little more nutritional even thought it prob carries more calories. Just a suggestion

You look great! Congrats. Have you had any plastic surgery? How are you feeling?

Vegetarian here. Being sleeved April 2nd. Thank you for starting this!

Good luck!

You look great! Congrats. Good luck with the possible kidney stone!

I tell everyone. I'm a hair stylist and are pretty close with my clients. Being that im going to take off a month of work, i really,dont want to make up a story. Not that that matters, I honestly just tell everyone! I'm proud of my decision and welcome the support. I defiantly understand not wanting to tell everyone though. It is very personal.

5 weeks. My surgery is April 2nd

Yep I'm freaking out too

I'm still pre op, but what a great post! So far I like to hear from all the wonderful people on this forum that I can relate to!

Awesome! Ill be there! My husband will be with me I hope to meet you! Maybe Dr. Beekley will be there!

So happy for you!! Yes we do! I'm going to try to make it to the workshop next Thursday night. Michele just sent an email for it. Very exciting. I hope all goes well. My Endo is tomorrow. You take care and ill talk to you soon!

Bebee-- I'm April 2nd too! Good luck to you!

Gemini who is your surgeon?

Philadelphia here. Well I live in nj but I'm going to Jefferson for surgery

I know right! We need to compare notes and get through this together! I go for my Endoscopy Friday. I started panicking today . I think I'm over it now and ready to get this started!! So happy for you on getting your date! I started crying and almost crashed my car into a trash can when I found out lol. Needless to say, I thought I was going to have to wait 6 months. I was pleasantly surprised!
