Hey my surgery is on the 25th of September in Prueto Vallarta with Dr Joya. This is crazy but I'm not nervous yet. I'm sure that it will occur. I have done enough research to know that I am in good hands and that everything is going to be OK. It is normal to nervous, it would be weird if you wern't. Good luck and remember why you are doing it.

Hello everyone! My surgery date is September 20th as well here in Maryland! I had my pre op appointment today and have lost a total of 11 lbs since starting my liquid diet on the 6th. I am so excited for Thursday! Well wishes and speedy recovery to all! You all are in my prayers as well

@JayBaby88 Where in Maryland are you having your surgery done...and by who? Im in Frederick and my doc is Dr.McKenna.
