    I'm in Tennessee. Going to start the diet then also. Because I'm diabetic I'll have either shake or bar for breakfast and lunch and I can have either small fruit ir yogurt for morning and afternoon snacks then light supper. What will your diet be like?

    I feel the same way about the anxiety. I am going to see my DR Nov. 20th and ask if I can take a xanax the mornig before I get to the hospital. I have such a fear of needles, hospitals, and doctors. A couple years ago I had ovarian cysts removed and freaked out right as they were wheeling me in. So I really don't want anything to happen like that with this to stop them from preforming the surgery.

    NOVEMBER 2013 Surgeries

    Today has been horrible! We've been trying to purchase a new home, I found out this morning that a we were going to have to wait a little longer. (Been waiting for 45 days!) Then right after that I get a call from my adocvate calls changing my surgery date. I've already put it off when it could've been done this month. So now I've got to wait until Dec. 6th. I have wanted to cry all day, but can't because I'm at work. With the date change it means that I will have surgery on Friday, come home on Sunday, and have to come back to work on Monday. I have no other choice about coming back to work that fast. I just need to vent, thanks to anyone that read this.
  9. A coworker of mine just had a hysterectomy and they told her to take Gas-x a week before daily to help with the gas after surgery. Has anyone did this to help with the rny? I'm just curious if it will help with some of the gas pain. Please share thoughts and ideas.
  10. Has anyone tried to drink after 4 weeks? I'm having surgery on the Nov 26th and then our Christmas party is Dec.19th. So I'm curious if I can even have a small drink? My husband will be with me so I'm not worried about getting drunk, just don't want to do any damage to my new tummy.
  11. I 32 days away from surgery and as it gets closer and closer I'm getting more nervous. I've been eating like crazy! I know this is what I need for a healthier life but what if it doesn't work? What if I have serious complications? What if????? That goes thru my mind often. Other times I feel excited about this. I feel that my quality of life will be so much better once I lose this weight. I look at all the pictures I can of anyone with my body type and that was my size trying to imagine what I will look like. Will I need plastic surgery in 2 years? Will I look too thin? I worry I will lose too much weight. I just worry about anything and everything at times. Change is very scary for me. I will pray for you and your family, please do the same for me.

    Having second thoughts....

    I completely feel the same way! When I first started on this road I started eating healthier, I used to drink sodas all day long at least 6. Now I'm down to 1 a day. Because I know I've got to give them up once I have the surgery. I'm scheduled for Nove. 26th. Now that it's getting closer I eat like a pig, I'm very nervous about the whole thing, and I wonder if this is right for me to. I've been reading Weight loss surgery for dummies and have realized that this is normal. This is such a life changing decision I think we all have to weigh all the factors. I know it's right for me, and I'm ready for it to happen. But I still can't put the food down. Then that makes others around me who know I'm having the surgery doubt I can do it after. That with the over eating has caused me alot of depression lately. I'm just trying to deal the best I can. I hope it helps you knowing that someone else is going thru the same thing.
  14. I am on my way to my new life and I'm scared. I know this is best for me but now it seems real. The past couple of months have seemed like a challenge to get some where. Now I am almost there, and I'm feeling very scared. Does this happen to everyone? I argue with myself because I don't want to continue like I am and need this to make myself better. But I still have this fear. A couple weeks ago I was doing good trying to watch what I eat, excerise, and keep a food log. But the past week it seems like I want to eat everything in sight! Is this normal?
