I am so excited. Holy cow. I started this journey about a year ago. and now there is just a measly 15 days left! How am I going to sleep the night before? What pajamas am I going to wear?! These are such happy questions I don't mind asking myself over and over again. I know when i start my pre-op diet tomorrow, I will probably be singing a different tune, but today I'm on cloud nine that its coming true. Ive never been so ready to do something hard before. I know its going to be a struggle, but now I'm going to be digging a hole with a shovel instead of a spoon. Thank God. I'm so excited.

HEY EVERYONE! My surgery is February 15th. I am so incredibly ready for this journey. I strongly believe in a support system, positivity, and an accountability partner. I am definitely looking for a partner to go through this with. I am an open book and love to listen and discuss. I'd be happy to reach out to anyone :')

oh my gosh! ya'lls surgery date is so close! How are you holding up for the pre-op diet? I'm so excited for you. Your new life is just a few days away!

EEEEEP. Its almost time! I'm having my Bypass surgery on February 15th. I already had my four hour long class. Just my pre-op appointment and then my surgery! dun dun dun! I'm so excited. I'm nervous about the drain though. They are going to put a drain in me through my stomach, the idea of having something inside and outside of me through an unnatural hole is just freaking me out. but everything else I'm okay with. I'm so weird. Any words of advice? I'm so excited.

Hey! I'm in Richmond, and my date is February 15th! I am so excited! I would absolutely LOVE a buddy!

i hope so too!! that would be the best!

oh my god! 5 days before me! i'm so happy for you! What else do you have to do before your surgery?

omg why did they do that? That is so awesome though! Congrats! What a stroke of luck! Do you have to hurry and get stuff done before then?

im so excited for you!

When I got my acceptance letter, a few days later i emailed my coordinator and she set up the date right then and there.

oh my gosh, congratulations everyone! What a way to start the new year! 2017 is going to be the best year of our life.

Does it work well for you?

I am so excited to embark on this journey with you all! We are all gonna do great!

What would everyone recommend as a good app (i have iphone) to keep accountable?

oh my gosh that is so rough but im so glad youre finally getting it now!

I have a six hour class on the 19th, then on the 30th I do all my tests. I'm so excited!

what app is that! It looks great!

we can only hope! Fingers crossed

I had to jump through so many hoops, and I still have a few more to jump through, so I feel your pain. I've basically spent the past year trying to get this surgery, and my date is finally February 15th. I feel like my life has kind of been on pause waiting for this day. Its almost here, don't be discouraged because when you finally get it, it will be so worth it. Ive been reminding myself in the most positive way, "you only get to be fat for 5 more months, 4 more months, ect" So I have been kind of trying to remind myself how serious and good this is for me.

We are on the same day! Whoop! And a day after Valentine's Day. No chocolate for us! aha That is exactly how I feel. Like, everything hits me at once. all the what ifs and everything, but then I'm like, am I kidding, ive wanted this my entire life.
