LoL.....Im a little over 3 weeks away and I feel the same way!! Yes, you should have brought your chewable/liquid Vitamins, Protein Shakes, Water, gatorate ect. Time will be here before you know it. :) Are you doing a pre-op liquid diet too??

My op is June 20th and the surgeon wants me to lose 14 lb by then. If it was that easy I wouldn't be having the surgery eh ? Did you guys have to do a special diet beforehand ? I don't think we do a liquid diet pre-op in the uk.

So, I am heading out this weekend to get everything I need. I did not have to be on a pre-op diet. I already eat a very low carb diet now so the dr felt that was great! I didn't have to lose anything before I had the surgery however I decided I wanted to and lost 30lbs. I am keeping the surgery a secret to most so I want them to think I am just losing more weight. I also know the more weight the healthier I am on that operation table and that is important to me. Almost a week away and I am ready and very nervous. What is the scariest thing about the surgery to you guys?

I havent told any of my family members so the scariest thing is something going wrong during the procedure and they find out that way. :-/

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
