July 18th surgery!

I have my date and so excited and scared! My biggest fear is that I will fail!! I know that seems so silly, but when you have tried everything...you start to doubt that you really can be healthier and thinner! I am committed to following dr.s orders per and post op, but again just so scared of failing? Is anyone else sruggling with this?

I am 5'2" and currently weigh 264 (BMi 48). I look forward to the day I can post per and post op photos!

I'm actually feeling the same way today was actually the first day I really started to miss regular food. I'm thinking b/c of being around family and a lot of food today :(

What to do? Is this normal ?

Head hunger is killing me!! I went to WalMart tonight and it was like I was in a porn shop....such a guilty pleasure! Lol. I seriously could feel my mouth watering and I am sure I looked like a crazy person...staring intimately at all the food I couldn't have! Lol...oh well, I am sure this will pass!

Hi, my surgery was on the 17th of July, I am feeling really good, still a little sore, but I have had major surgery so that is understandable ???? haven't really had too much head hunger, I am making sure my fluids are very flavoursome, I am starting to crave a new texture though, something crunchy would be nice, but I will be at that point before I know it!!! Hope everyone is doing ok xoxo
