Im having surgery Monday, super excited and scared and nervous... some people are supportive and others tell me im taking the easy way out..

all the time.. then i look at myself in the mirror or in a picture my kids keep taking and i realize that i never have been able to do it on my own

oh my thank you for posting this i need a laugh. i get told all the time "your not that fat" ok so your agreeing im fat... everyone around me has tried to talk me out of surgery including myself. then i said to myself you will be the first to go in a zombie Apocalypse... we love the walking dead. i cant run i run out of breath just walking, my hips hurt when i sleep. im just tired of not looking how i feel on the inside. tired of crying when in a dressing room. and i work in a very male populated area im a nurse as well and i have men yelling i need a fat girl with low self esteem to take care of me... of course its directed at me. the male officers drive by in there golf carts and say to the other officers that they dont pick up fat girls cause they need the exercise. its very demeaning. the inside person is not a "fat" girl... im done hiding from the camera and the mirror..

my surgery is monday and im scared as hell, i keep going back and forth one minute im like yes yes yes, then im like oh crap what am i doing to myself..... some people around me arent to supportive either so i keep hearing horror stories.... im just going with the flow and ill make it to the hospital on monday

My doctor hasn't advised me to do any pre op detox or liquid diet. Just nothing after midnight the day before. Maybe you should call and find out Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I got really overwhelmed also and started eating like crazy then I realized what I was doing when my "fat" pants turned into skinny jeans. You have to figure out mentally what is bothering you so you don't self sabotage later in life again. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
