OMG! Monday is the day!! I was excited now I have such anxiety!! I keep trying to convince myself this is the best thing for me but scared I will be sorry! No going back!! Can't tell you how many last meals I have had!!

Mine is monday too! I'm on an emotional roller-coaster! This is what I've wanted for so long but I'm scared that this will all be for nothing and I will lose a few pounds and gain it all back! I can't help but have the negative thoughts come back and haunt me. I think its normal for us to have fears.

I am also worried I wasn't on any pre diet! I asked the surgeon and hospital. They just said nothing since the night before. I have been reading this forum the last few hours and been reading bad things!! People are starving and sorry!! Where are you getting it done Monday?

I am feeling the same way! I am now seeing negative posts and it's freaking me out how hard the first couple weeks are. Also I was not thrilled with the % of weight my surgeon told me that I'd lose. I want to get down to 150 & with whay he figured , I'd get to be about 190!!! I'm not thrilled. What's wrong with me?!!!

I think in the end its what we make of it. If we follow the directions that they gave us we should see great results. I think we need to give it all we've got consistently and we should be ok... Right??

I don't think there is anything wrong with you! The numbers they give you are a conservative average. From what I have seen there are so many people who surpass their surgeon's # that equals success for them. Good luck!

I work with someone who had it done in December, right before Christmas. As of last week , she was down 80 pounds. It's all about working with the restrictions. That's what makes this different from other diets. You need to listen to your new tummy and follow the rules. She is beyond happy with her decision and results. I'm nervous too but also looking forward to the results.

Guy's I am so proud of all of you for doing this. I know it will be hard but you can do it if you make up your mind to do it. I am at total peace with my decision. I prayed about it and I am not worried at all. If I loose only 75 that is way more than I could loose on my own. I am expecting great things from this transformation. I want to run again and do exercise with out massive pain. I know that being positive is our key to success. I will pray for all of you to do well with surgery and recovery. There is a power to over come any struggle we face. Have faith. You got this!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
