I am so emotional and so nervous. I'm actually starting to second guess myself and getting doubtful. I feel like my insides are knotted so tight that I can't think straight. I didn't do as well as I would have liked on my liquid diet but I couldn't tolerate the Protein Shakes, I kept saying I have time and now it's tomorrow. Oh my gosh, I always dreamed of being thin and healthy and now that time has come. God bless to all those with upcoming surges. May you all have Godspeed in your recovery!

Here's to seeing less of of you and Me!! <3

My surgery is tomorrow too! I have the same emotions going on too! I'm sure it just nerves and anxiety of the unknown. We will both do just fine and we will have good stories to exchange once we get tomorrow behind us. Keep in touch I would like to hear how your surgery went!

Well....today was my surgery that did NOT happen! My husband and I made it to the hospital when BAM, my nerves got the best of me and I started to cough uncontrollably. I knew I had bronchitis but we thought it would be resolved by the time I had surgery. I think my nerves and the bronchitis together caused me to cough so much the anesthesiologist felt I was not ready for the surgery and decided to postpone. I'm ok with this and I firmly believe things happen for a reason. If this surgery is meant to be, it will. I'm meeting with my regular doctor to check on my bronchitis and then get cleared again for surgery next week. So the saga continues!

I am so sorry to hear this. It is very important that you are as healthy as you can be when you go into surgery like this. This is really for the best and I really like your attitude about the whole situation. A week isn't too long to have to wait. Please keep up posted on your progress.

Thank you all for your concern and support. I am pleased to say I was sleeved and doing well. I'm 10 days post op and trying to figure out my new tummy! Hope all is well with you.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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!!
