    Same here. I want to drink without being scared of an air bubble. I want to lay down without being scared I'm going to pop a stitch lol.

    Don't beat yourself up about the slip up... You'll do fine. This is just practice for the after party ???? lol. After the surgery u won't even be hungry at least for a few days.

    I finally had my surgery yesterday. I flew to Dallas yesterday morning and flew back home today. It hurts to swallow but I'm getting better at it. So glad to see my Nov 24th buddies are doing well.

    We can do this guys. 24hrs from now we'll be different. We won't be preop buddies. We'll be post op buddies. Every year when Thanksgiving comes around when ppl are finding their fat pants, we'll bw celebrating the day we said goodbye to our fat pants.

    So how are the nerves? I'm due at the hospital at 6am on Monday. I have to be up at 4am to take a pill called emend (for nausea). I'm super nervous but excited for this journey.

    I'm feeling better today on day 3. I was dying Monday, yesterday I was down and depressed, and today I'm good. I can do this. It's starting to hit me... In just a little over a week my life is changing again.

      Hang in there! my first week or two i thought "what did i do to myself?" ...i started questioning if i did the right thing and how hard this really is. but after my first doctors visit post op at 2 weeks when i saw the scale and i lost 30 pounds, i was estatic! it reminded me why i made the decision to do the surgery in the first place. Now at 5 1/2 weeks post op im hanging in there and can feel the difference. It gets better and easier with time, i promise. Just keep in mind the reasons why you chose this path. Liquids suck but you have to take the time to find the right protein drink for you because protein is not going anywhere sweetie, its here to stay. Good Luck and you can do it!!!

    I'm only required to have 4 monthly visits and lose "some" weight. No specific number was given. I've lost 7 in the last month. Tomorrow is my second WLV so we shall see what's next.
