July 15th is the date excited and scared.. Pressing on!!!

Me too! I got my date yesterday May 13. I'm happy but scared. This is major and no going back. I'm on my first day of liquids and having headaches already. Sometimes I get upset with myself saying "Why can't you just do it the normal way ?" But I know why. Definitely not looking forward to pain afterward and all the loose skin. I have asked 5 people that I know who have had the bipass and they said they would do it again in a heartbeat. I'm 5'1" @250 but have always been active. What helped me make my decision was finding out I have herniated discs and a torn meniscus. Dr keeps saying loose weight. I found a support group but it only meets once a month. I haven't told my family yet. I plan on doing that by the weekend.
