In pre op!
I am in my room and doing ok! Surgery was started a tad late. But at 9:46 they told my husband things were ok and I was in recovery. Honestly, so far so good. Pain of course but not too bad. Pain meds are our friends. I am a little bummed I didn't get a pain pump/button. Gotta wait on the nurses. Gas isn't too bad, hope it stays that way. I'll update more later! I want everyone to get the scoop that's planning on doing this!

Worried about failure post op
I am so worried about life Post op. Does anyone else worry they will fail? That's my biggest fear at the moment. I've failed so many times before. I worry I won't be able to do what others have done. I love food and I am scared it will still control me after this. Is this a normal fear?

Am I the only one with a one-day pre-op diet?
I have a 8 day pre op diet. 5 days is two shakes, and a healthy dinner (1000 calories a day)...then the last 3 days are clear liquid.

Impatiently waiting...June sleevers?
I am scheduled for June 12th! I know I need this but I am so scared!! I keep having doubts. I know I need it and have to do it. One minute I'll be excited for the future then the next minute I think I'm crazy for doing this! Is this normal? Do you other June sleevers feel this way? By the way, this is my first post I am a 38 year old mother of three, and have been overweight since I was 9! My parents have weight related health issues and I don't want that for my future. That's why I need this and am choosing this!
