Hello friends.....I am leaving for my surgery a week today. My husband and I fly out on Sunday, Nov 8, and my surgery will be done on the 10th. I tried to start the pre-opt diet longer than the recommended 7 days, but alas...did not happen. I officially start tomorrow. I am looking forward to new beginings. I am cannot wait until I can unload this extra person who has been hanging onto me.

I will admit I do have my fears...but I would with any surgery...I will rejoice in the benefits to be a healthy person. I know that if I continue my way of life the path I was on...I would have much more to fear.

So my friends thank you all for your stories...and advice...I look forward to sharing my own story.

Good luck!! Personally I'd be more affraid of the flying than the surgery:scared0: but I'm sure you will do fine!

Good luck Jenn on your pre-op diet this week. It will be over before you know it and you will be sleeved and on your way to a healthier you.

Congrats. on your new journey. The pre-op is really not that bad.

You will do great.

Thank you ladies....so far so good...*grin*
