Hi,

Just wanted to post and start talking about what I plan on doing.

I am scheduled for 8/1 and now have four months to think, double-think, doubt myself, rev myself up, and go full circle.

Do I doubt that I have to face my obesity? No. I have researched this topic for years, then about a month ago I finally just put my needs to the forefront and got plane tickets and paid my deposit for surgery.

So, that being said, here I am and I am ready to walk the path I have chosen.

congrats, best wishes and enjoy your journey xx

Welcome, and the best of luck to you!

welcome to the site. This is probably the single most important life changing decision ive made.. and not one day has gone by that ive regretted this. just that I didnt do it sooner... Im not as far out as some.. but still farther out than many... its been life changing and I knew that going into this and was ready for that change.. The journey is a life long one.. but the end result is fabulous.. im post op since dec20 and Ive lost 71lbs.. 71lbs of me that I will never see back again.. (thank goodness). If I can do it anyone can.. just remember to follow all the docs and nuts instructions.. and you will be a success... best of luck to you in your new journey.. keep us posted

I was scared too, put your fears aside, ask yourself would you rather someone work on your stomach, or your heart?
