Good luck Mindy!! Sending up prayers for you. You're going to do great!! It's a new start to a healthy happy life!! We're here for you. Keep your mind focused and try not to be afraid. You've got this!!

I didn't drink enough Water. I used to drink a lot while I was eating. So when I couldn't eat....then I just didn't think much about drinking. I need to retrain my brain very quickly.
My surgery is at 7:00am. I have to be at the hospital at 5:00am. Yay me. My husband is used to getting up early but I'm not. No matter...I've been kinda grumpy today...I'm sure it's because I can't have anything of substance tonight. But oofdah I'm I witchy itch. I'm going to get in my shower and use the nasty soap they gave me...then hit the pillow. Thank you all for prayers and thoughts. I'm very thankful to have you all.

So glad to hear you are doing well. I think you are doing great! I haven't lost 25lbs in a year for at least 20 yrs lol. At least it's coming off. I should try to make that crust and get good at it before my surgery. My daughter made it for me a few months ago and I loved it! Good luck at mtg tomorrow and I'll for sure be at the 12-3 mtg. Haven't heard from clinic yet I'm anxiously awaiting.

Good morning Jeanie!! Welcome to the group!! :-) Good luck to you as you go through this journey. My best advice to you is to start forming habits now (no drinking after/with meals, small bites, slow down eating, exercise, etc), do lots of research but remember everyone's journey is different and keep in mind this is a tool. It takes a lot of discipline and hard work. Going in, I was scared due to all the scary stuff I'd read online. I haven't experienced any of that scary stuff (gas pain, surgery pain, nausea, dumping, vomiting, etc). It's great to know those things are possible, but don't get too wrapped up in fear because you may not experience those things. We're here for you. It's an exciting journey. I'd do it again in a heartbeat. Wish I'd done it 10 years ago.

Thanks Fran! I'm just reading as much as I can about this. Soaking up the idea of change and looking forward to positive progress.
