Almost there...trying to imagine the new lifestyle and how I will adjust...just a little nervous.

It's okay to be a little nervous, I am sure I will too once my time comes. But just trying to think of all the good things that will come from you having the sleeve. Just stay focused on all the positive stuff. Good Luck to you and keep us posted.

I am nervous too. Its not a negative nervous. It's more of experiencing a place I have never been before. I have done all the classes. I have read the Do's and Dont's and read the advice of there. There is still that element of the unknown. Stay connected to your higher power. For me prayer is getting me through daily. I am 9 days away from my next chapter. Be encouraged. Take on moment at time.

I feel the same way! I'm all full of emotions. Somedays I'm excited and ready to do it. Other days I'm nervous and anxious! I think its normal. I have a love/hate relationship with food. So I'm scared on how that dynamic will change.

Thanks I find myself talking to God more these days than ever. I agree it is the unknown...

That's has happened to me. One moment I am eating things I know I will surely miss and the next I just want to be healthy and hardly eat a bite...disgusted by the ingredients. The catch 22! Lol!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
