It has taken me longer then a year to have reached this point but i am finally less then 2 weeks away from surgery. I am so excited and can't wait for it to be here already but I am also scared for everything. Maybe I am just overreacting to the anxiety of it all and the actualization of it all happening. i am just wanting to know how everyone else felt and how you are feeling now and what I should expect... this forum is just so wonderful and you all provide such an amazing support i am so grateful!

I am feeling exactly the same way you are! I am 4 days away from my surgery. I actually had the lap band before but it prolapsed so I had to have it removed and now I am starting all over again. I am probably more nervous now than I was before! I have been on a clear liquid diet since monday and am SOO hungry. I got my weight done at my preop nutrition last Thursday and since I started my liquid diet, I have lost 11 pounds in 3 days. Don't know how it happened but according to the scale...I have! Good luck with your journey!!!!

Oh my gosh! Sounds like you have had quite the journey! But I hope this is the last leg of it for you!! I will start my liquid diet on the 6th as my surgery is the 9th and it only has to be a 3 day one. But sounds like you are doing so great!! Good Luck to you!

I am so jealous your pre-op is only 3 days!! I've been drinking mostly water and sugar free hawaiin punch. If I have my protein shakes close together, my stomach ends up hurting. Your surgery is 1 week after mine! We should definitely keep in touch!!! Good Luck to you too!!!

Well we all certainly wish you both the best of luck and hope for great results post-op!

Be sure to let us know the results of your surgery.

Anxiety is usual when making such a big step in your life. Trust me this is probably one of the best decisions you will ever have made in your life. GOod luck to you both.
