Thanks. I have read that article and it always makes me feel better. I should be ok. I don't have any major health problems like diabetes or high blood pressure. I am following my pre-op diet like its life or death. I've lost 15 pounds in a week so far! And my doctor performs at a center of excellence and had done about 2000 surgeries with no deaths. I just need to keep reminding myself of this and stop thinking about the negative.

Yeah, he kept saying stuff like that throughout his whole article. I just can't get it out of my head, though.

I'm just naturally a worry wart, so I'm really getting worried as it gets closer to the date of my surgery. I wish I wasn't like this.

Anybody see this online?? I need to stop doing google searches. I'm starting to get freaked out! Please tell me none of what this guy says is true. gastricbypasskills.blogspot.com/.../think-... I don't know if I pasted the link correctly, but his name is fat bastardo.

Good luck! I'm excited for you. Mine is on Friday!

Thanks everyone. It's good to know I'm not the only one who is nervous.

My pre op diet is basically just sugar free liquids. I don't have to take a certain number of protein drinks. It's weird how every doctor has different rules for the pre op diet. I'm on day 5 right now. The first two days were TERRIBlE. But since then, I've been ok.

I'm from Kentucky. Getting it done in Louisville.

Thanks guys! I know I'll be OK. I just have to push the little worries away.

Exactly one week until my surgery!

My surgery is the 10th also!!

Hi guys!! My name is Alana. I am going to be sleeved on October 10th. I'm so excited to start this journey, but I'm also a little scared. This will be my first time being put to sleep. Any words of support would be awesome!!
