Hi..i understand exactly how you fill. I am going through it too "fear of failure" for the past couple weeks I am not sleeping or even thinking right. Very anxious. I talked to the psychiatric for the group and she said that is better to experience this emotions now before surgery, because you are preparing the emotional part of yourself it will prevent depresion after the surgery, it is like grieving the anticipated change. Hang in there its going to be fine

I know I'm ready! Started packing yesterday since it was a good distraction to those eating that "bad for you but yet so delicious" food! I only packed a comfy pair of PJ's, robe, slippers, Chapstick, something to wear home, my favorite blankie and my iPhone charger. That just about covered my husbands needs when he went through this last year. My turn! Good luck everyone!!!

Good morning my fellow July 8th sleevers.

It's exciting to just have the last three days / last weekend, before our new self. I thought it was going to be difficult staying off all the bad holiday foods, but maybe due to the nerves it has been rather easy. I hope you all enjoyed a nice holiday yesterday.

My mission for this weekend is the following:

pack my bag, still need to get some slippers.

get a massage ( To be as relaxed as possible)

Clean my house really well

And truly just enjoy this special count down with my family. I have a daughter who is 19, who she and I share the same struggle with weight, except I, with the medical problems that come with it. She is very excited for me. Our goal is to start a journey together. Me with my sleeve and she with a strong will. My husband is also very supportive. I hope I can influence my family transition into improved eating habits, so that our family of five can overall improve to better health.

Anyone like to share what their weekend count down must do is?

I'm spending it with my family and quite honestly until Sunday - food funeral-Ing my face off. Bad? Yes. But this is how I'm dealing with this...knowing full well that come Sunday am (when i have to start clear liquids) life changes. For the better.

Even though I couldn't partake in all of the amazing cocktails with my cousins yesterday I played with their kids (reminding me that I will have more energy for them) and talked about my new life. My cousins are like my siblings. They helped me not think of the nerves and only think of the amazing journey ahead. Anything with something is worth working for. And I'm going to work my ass off.

I'm soooooo hungry (clear liquid diet since Monday) I hope this weekend Flys by super fast. I'm so ready to be sleeved!

So tomorrow (sat), my last thing to do for pre op is go to the hospital pre-register get a second pregnancy test and a blood type screening for two units of blood just in case. They will put a little red band on my wrist, give me the magic cleanser for my tummy and Monday morning I'll be at the hospital at 8:00 for a 10:00 surgery!! Yayyyyy!!!

Praying that everyone has a noneventful surgery with a safe recovery♡

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
