  1. Surgery is tomorrow at 7 am. I have been crying for hours and hours. I don't know if I'm scared or having second thoughts? Has anyone felt this way? Sitting in the lobby of my hotel debating to check in or dash back to my car

    22 years old in need of advice

    I want to change me life and I know this is something that can do just that. The work force is vicious- I believe I'll get a better job if I'm more fit. As bad as that sounds, I've already found it to be true. I'm the smallest person on my dads side of the family by hundreds of pounds and I wanna put a stop to the obesity before I can get any larger. Thankfully I am very active and have a personal trainer and love to workout- so with this I hope the weight comes off easier. Every diet I've ever tried has failed. Not because I over eat, but because my body doesn't respond well to fad diets.
  3. Hi everyone. I'm 22 years old and having surgery on Thursday. I am 185 pounds and I couldn't be more nervous. I am having the mini gastric bypass surgery and really really don't know what to expect. I'm having the surgery for 2 reasons. One- my mother and father have always disapproved of my weight and this was a college graduation gift. The other is that I've had major surgery on my femurs and knees when I was younger, so this extra weight is no good for my bones. Does anyone have any advice for me? I'm worried about post op. The foods you can eat and the portions sizes. I've never had an issue with over eating. I gained roughly 50 pounds in college between the late night studying and the drinking. I'm worried about not being able to socialize with others over dinner and drinks. My doctor didn't put me on a pre surgery diet so I've been eating and drinking normally. Im worried about dumping syndrome and throwing up. Not to mention never being able to drink Water and eat at the same time or never eating certain foods again. My parents don't understand how I am feeling and my friends don't think I need this surgery so I have no one to go to- this is coming from the friendliest and most outgoing person you can come across. In need of some comforting words and advice. Thanks
