U all are so wonderful. I'm about to see my surgeon this afternoon and then my anesthesia team. They WILL know how I'm feeling by the end of today. Anyway it goes, I appreciate the responses and encouragement! U guys ROCK!!! :-) If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

When's ur date hun? If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

Even if I'm understanding what ur trying to say, I asked more than two questions. Therefore I wouldn't know which two questions u were answering anyways. I am feeling much better now so no advice or anything needed from u at this moment. I love this site! Thanks and have a pleasant day! If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

I asked more than 2 questions. And I was looking for help not sarcasm. Seriously, If u can't relate than keep scrolling. Wtf was ur point in responding? If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

Has anyone lost someone to WLS? Before your surgery did u feel like u were gonna die? Is this a normal feeling? Should I actually say my good byes? 1 week to go If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

Thanks for posting and I've heard very similar things. If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

That's my doc! May 3rd If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

Thank you ma'am! If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

I know the struggle is real... keep venting... and thank you for your service for our country. Sent from my KFTT using the BariatricPal App I've never been able to really vent. I'm so soft spoken that even if I vented, it sorta falls on deaf ears. I'm glad u all r so supportive! And serving our wonderful country was my pleasure! If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

From Maryland living near Fort Stewart Ga. Will be sleeved on may 3rd! Hola! If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

Mind readers are what u all are! I swear I wanted to toss those things away but I didn't. Heck, I don't even like ice cream to begin with! Lol I think it's just hormones maybe. Either way, I did have a talk with him and he understood my point. My liquid diet starts Monday and I WILL get through this! As hard as this seems to be, I know that it isn't impossible. U ladies are my living proof! Every one of u are SOLDIERS that I look up to. I salute you all!!! If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

Hello. I'm going under May 3 as well. Used to live in Texas but am in GA now. Good luck! If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

This actually brought tears to my eyes like u were responding to me directly! I think it's so wonderful to have positive people in ur corner. I can't really find it no where else, but this forum is a breath of fresh air. Thank you for ur kind words as they touch me in a special way....indirectly! I really love u ladies and gents here! If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

Hello ma'am. Thank you so much for ur kind words! Yes I am researching eating disorders and I am currently taking Welbutrin XL. My depression had been in control for quite sometime now but this surgery is a major stressor. My appetite is small because I think my stomach may be shrinking. I talked to my husband and let him know how I was feeling and we had a very good talk. I'm glad to know that he is understanding and loves me a lot. I guess I'm just a ball of emotions. Lol I wonder is that normal. Sounds like it might be. Anyways, have a wonderful day and I hope to talk to you again soon. *Surgery date is May 3rd* If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

Well I've been on the 2 week diet plan that my surgeon has given me. This last week has been especially hard due to my cycle starting in the middle of the week. It was then that I noticed that I truly AM an emotional eater. Sweets make me smile. So I cheated. Only to feel bad and naughty in doing so. I also realized that my husband might not be as supportive as he appears to be. I went shopping for my new diet and he bought my favorite bread (which he has NEVER purchased) and of course, ice cream. I know that I'm a steam engine waiting to blow this week coming if he tries any stupid stunts like that again. I just pray I'll make it through this upcoming liquid phase. I don't have any friends or family here (military wife and veteran myself). I feel extremely alone. I feel my depression is coming back. This journey has been so tiring that sometimes quitting seems too easy. Either way, thanks for letting me vent. If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

That's super! I'm happy for you. Let's keep in touch! If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

Yes ma'am it is. It's kinda embarrassing since I'm a Army veteran. Never had weight problems until the 3 very tough pregnancies. Could not lose the weight. Either way, it's been a long road and I guess I better get ready. Lol keep me posted on ur surgery and recovery. I wish u the very best. Thanks for responding. It means the world to me!!

CONGRATULATIONS!! Whoohooo SPEEDY RECOVERY TO YOU! Im counting down my days after you May 24th I cant wait. you will be fine. Is this your first WLS?

Well I just received the call that my surgery is scheduled May 3rd. This has been such a long, back and forth road for me. I am excited, but starting to have my doubts. Just typing about it is making me quiver. My anxiety is reaching an all time high. I can't believe I feel so weak. Kind of disappointed with myself. Sorry for being all over the place with this post. I don't have anyone else to talk to about this but my husband. And while he's supportive, I'm sure he is irritated with this WLS topic. Well thanks for letting me vent and I dont expect anyone to care or even respond. Just figured getting it out of my system would help.

Dr. Phil rocks! I heard that before he had his show and I guess that old saying is indeed popular. I remind myself of this often and it really helps.

Has anyone purchased any items from this app? If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

This was exactly what I needed today. Bless you for you have truly blessed me with this message! If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

Hello ladies (and gents) I have completed everything and my pre op appointment is April 27. I am a nervous wreck. I break out in cold sweats just thinking about an MRI, let alone a surgery. Help! What have I gotten myself into? If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.

Hello all. I'm new to this site and am in love with it already. 2 years ago I was turned down for surgery because my depression was out of control when in reality the psychologist was upset because I told her I didn't wanna see her again and that I was gonna look elsewhere. That was in 2014 But here I am today with a new psychologist (January 2016) to treat my depression and anxiety. And my pre op appointment is April 27th (finally). It has been a long journey but I finally made it. I have been looking for a site with supportive ppl and I think I have finally found it! U all r so helpful and sweet. We r a military family (plus I'm a veteran) and finding ppl to talk to seems impossible. I will be visiting this site often. Heaven sent!! Thanks to all and Good luck. If u fail to plan, u plan to fail.
