Mine is Tuesday morning 10.30am. Getting nervous.. good luck everyone..

No I'm off to brussels fly Monday op Tuesday.. a lot of people go Mexico.. I'm going on my own quite nervous now..

I think it's easier leading up to the surgery to question what we are doing.. the last two days I've questioned is it selfish? It's a lot of money I have a family.. what am I putting myself through just to be slim? But what I've realised is as a mother and wife and a person I always put everyone else first. I have low self esteem and I realise this is why I'm questioning.. but it's okay to put ourselves first.. our health and to feel good.. so come Monday I will be on a flight as will you all having surgery.. because we are worth it 😁

Mine is at 8:45am

I have been on full decaf for a couple days. I feel like I need the kick start from the caffeine in the morning, but I may stick it out if I get used to not having it. I am not having any headaches so I am glad I decided to step down and not switch cold turkey.

Just got the call, mines at 3:00p. I wish mine was in the morning!

I couldn't put it better myself @Caz73 we do need our lives back no turning back especially when have to complete this journey.

Are you having surgery in Mexico also? Can I ask who your surgeon is? Maybe I will see you there.
You are absolutely right. We are worth it!!

I am wide awake tonight and I have to get up early for work. I keep thinking of more stuff I need to get done before my dh and I head to Mexico on Sunday morning. I ordered a Ninja blender and some Vitamins this past Monday and they arrived today. I am hoping I can make some Protein Shakes that taste better then the ones I have tried thus far.
I hope everyone had a good day. Only three more days to go until surgery day!!

You guys made my day i was feeling so happy that i forgot all about what i wrote. I won't let myself down. Thank you we are all in this together. May 15 here we come. Yes i will@Apple1!

Well good for you... and good luck.. kp us informed of the start of new journey... age is irrelevant.... 😁

Yes, I am glad he is able to come with me. I don't think I would go alone. Our children are grown and we have 3 grandchildren already. I feel so much older than many who are getting WLS. But I plan on enjoying my 50's and not having to worry about my weight.
I am paying $4600 for my surgery in Mexico so about the same. If I wanted to have the surgery close to home here in the US it would cost me anywhere from $15,000-20,000.

Welcome to the thread!!! I'm not in your boat...but good for you for taking charge of your health!!!

Well, just finished eating my allotted carrots.

Hi I'm due a week tomorrow to be sleeved in Brussels. I'm excited but nervous.. any news on your date?

You'll be fine 😁
