I never said there wasn't any positive feedback, I said that's all I'm looking for. My NUT isn't being very helpful at this point. So please don't take my reply in a negative way. Sorry if you're confused. Sent from my SM-N910T3 using the BariatricPal App

My intention of this post is for positive feedback. It's not that I'm comparing myself to others, I'm reaching out for ideas that maybe I haven't thought of. I haven't been on this site for a while and now I remember why, because of all the critics and perfect people.

Farewell

Thank you very much!

My fellow January 13th sleevers, how did things go? Things went very well with my surgery and I was home the next day. Little to no pain and just trying to keep th gas away.. I would love to hear from everyone, to know that all is well.

Thank you very much!

Tomorrow is a new day!

I've been secretly crying. I think I'm driving my guy crazy. So I try not to talk to him about it anymore. Oh well, I have you all who are sharing the feelings and emotions with me. At least, someone understands.

Congratulations to you! In the beginning, I was so happy to have that surgery date. The liquids have been difficult for me and I almost gave up. I'm happy to be moving forward with surgery on Wednesday.

That's so true. Thank you!

Thank you! I'm trying to stick to the plan but reality has set in.

Just 2 more days for me too. I took off work today and laid in bed till noon. My mom and one b of my sisters told me yesterday that they really don't want me to do this. I'm torn apart. I've lost 20 lbs in 2 weeks and they feel that I can do this without surgery. I had to remind them that I've been doing this liquid diet and starving to get to this. I'm so sad now and down. I am thankful for this group to be able to have support that's unjudged.

I'm in St. Louis and scheduled January 13th.

I've had so many mixed feelings and so many questions now that surgery is just a few days away. There are times when I'm alone and find myself thinking heavily about what I'm about to do and if I should move forward with it. Then, I look at the bigger picture and get emotional because this is not about myself alone, it's about my boys. They mean the world to me and I will do anything that I can to live to see them grow up, be successful and have a family. Then, I think about how i lost my father when I was 14 and he was only 43 year young, from health issues. I was devastated and I refuse to give up knowing that I giving up means that my children could be faced with the same thing. I encouraging myself and everyone else who is here, making a choice to have a healthier life. Best of luck to everyone!

Sure thing. I'm becoming less nervous since being on here. A great place for support.
