Good job! I hope I'm there one day too. You are an inspiration

Sigh! I'm very anxious! I meet again with the surgeon and do some blood work. I know it's normal to be anxious. I just haven't slept in days. I feel like I'm going to do fine but I'm still freaking out! Just needed to vent. This forum is keeping me together. Thanks everyone.

. ME TOO! Good luck! How's the diet going??

Slim fast has too much sugar! Don't use it!

Thanks for all the advice :-)!

May 5th COLORADO SPRINGS! ????

Thank you! They didn't tell me about the shots. Kinda interesting. . . Something else to worry about :-(

How much have u already lost?

Wow, I'm so excited for you! Your doing wonderful!

I'm feeling ready for surgery. However , I felt that way before my son was born and we had an emergency c-section. I wished I had done laundry and other random things. What do you wish you had done before surgery? Or what did you do?

Does anyone have a blog? I'd love to read it.

Yeah SUGAR FREE POPSCICLEs! I totally forgot. Mmmmm! Getting some tomorrow!

Holy Moly! IM HUNGRY! Any ideas on how to curb this pre-op death hunger? Does it get better after a few days! Ahhhhhhhhh!!! To all the normal eating!

I'm so excited I made myself nauseous! Diet starts tomorrow. I've waited so long! I can't believe this is real and it's finally happening! 11 days to go!

I found this on Pinterest. . .

May 5th! So excited!

I haven't even had my surgery and I already get the "you look fine" SERIOUSLY!? You must be blind. The person most against my decision is the most overweight person in my family. So definitely consider the source. People get envious/threatened easily! Good for you and your new way of life! Congrats! :-D

Wow, you nailed it. Fit in a chair.... How did I forget that. Visiting any amusement park and not having extreme anxiety because I know I won't fit. I really needed to hear that! THANK YOU CANYONBABY!!!!

Does anyone else have pre surgery anxiety? I am freaking out all I can think about is life afterwards. I'm horrified I'm going to be sick forever and not be able to function this summer. i love being outside and playing with the kids. Do you think ill feel normal...ish? Now that its so close I'm analyzing everything over again. sigh! Any positive words would be greatly appreciated!

Christina from beautiful Colorado! Started at 317lbs on 9/10/2014 Down 32lbs!(not miraculous but without surgery) Surgery date: Cinco De Mayo! My kick fat butt day as well! I'm a CNMT,LMT I meet SO MANY successful happy patients! SUPER GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!

I would love to hear how your surgeries go? I'll add you all as friends! I'm proud of all of us! This is not a journey for the weak. It drives me CrAzY when ppl say it's the easy way out! So GOOD JOB! Also, my husband is a twig as well!

Woot! Woot! Surgery date set for May 5th, 2015! I've worked rather hard and I'm super excited to finally begin this journey. Apparently I've lost 30lbs since I started. That alone is awesome! I'm shopping for the surgery... I would love suggestions on vitamins, things you wish you had, just about anything you think would be helpful??

O ya CINCO DE MAYO! I met with the surgeon today and It was so boring and easy. We set the date for May 5th, 2015! I guess the day before I meet him again and we do some tests. I was so nervous to see him and now I'm just ecstatic! I've lost 30 total since I saw him 8 months ago. SCORE! Chipotle for lunch now to the gym and tanning with my sister. Best day EVER!

I love the last thing you wrote. I'm a massage therapist and have met SOOO many ppl with diff opinions. Just listen to the bad ones because there are so many more positive stories out there. I felt God gave me the supportive/successful clients more than the negative.You know what's right. I am excited for you! Honestly, I saw more signs to go for the surgery than not to. I have my review appointment tomorrow and am finally excited to almost be POST-OP!! FINALLY! This whole thing is scary but listen to ur voice ur God and everything will be ok.
