His

This is encouraging because I am scared to death of failure.

Just got back from my pre-op appointment. I don't know why I am so scared. I told the dr. if he gets in and finds so much scare tissue where he has to cut me open then don't do it. lol I will have to reschedule because I have to get back to work the next week because I do payroll. Other than that everything is good to go. I was taken back because they gave me this black box that has compression things for my legs and I have to wear around my legs after I get home when I sleep and when I am resting to prevent blood clots. I have had them for other surgerys but nothing to wear I take them home so that caught me off guard.

August 28th, Houston Texas here

Did ya'll find it was easy to not eat after surgery. My doctor told me that you won't want food and that a part of the stomach that is cut out is the part that tell you that your hungry. I know it wasn't in those words but something like that. I'm so scared I will not keep this off. I have 100 lbs to lose.

Did any of you have people talking bad about the surgery and saying how bad the side effects are? I have surgery on Aug. 28th and now getting scared.

good job keep it up

My surgery has been scheduled for a few months now and tomorrow I have my pre op appointment. I started my liquid diet yesterday but its only one shake this week and then next week 2 shakes till 24th and then down to three shakes till surgery. Nerves are really getting to me. I think because I have only told my sister and husband. I don't want the negative talk and people all worrying. I did go to urgent care the other night because I felt another kidney stone, yes another one. I have had several of them so I know what it feels like. Got shot but in the mean time my husband mentions to Dr. that I'm having surgery in a couple of weeks. He was really negative about the surgery and kept asking if I was sure I want to do this and do I know risk later down the road. Has anyone else experienced the negative talk? It has really got me scared.

My date is August 28th also. I'm super nervous. I'm hoping to lose at least 115. I'm in Houston Texas
