    Texas Forum?

    Im from south texas, Mcallen tx! my surgery is now on May 20th and Im super nervous, but I know I will not regret this. Just praying for a healthy, no complication post op life! I still have a lot of questions on my diets post op. I meet with my surgeon again on May 3rd. I am also very nervous about the 2 week pre op clear liquid diet...how did everyone get through this?
  9. Best wishes to you! Ill be 25 next tuesday. My bf and I haven't tried to get pregnant yet. We plan to get married in about a year or so. But being a mom is something I really want! And like you, a reason I want WLS is so that my chances for a healthy pregnancy are high! Fortunately I'm not irregular so I don't forsee having those kinds of problems..but only the man upstairs knows!

I'm in the process of getting sleeved soon..possibly late april.I have my psych evaluation for insurance approval on Tuesday this week. I'm getting very nervous..because ofcourse I find myself reading all about the complications forum. Anyone from the south texas area? I hope I won't regret this life changing decision..
