who else is in september? what are your thoughts? are you excited??!!! Nervous?

Tomorrow is the day!!! So excited and nervous...Good luck to all my fellow September 9thers!!!!

Prayers and best wishes to all the Sept 9th sleeves!

I'm up tomorrow morning! As soon as I can' date=' I'll share what I experienced. Here we go![/quote']

Good Luck.

I'll try to do the same. Can't guarantee it, most everyone says they don't feel like getting on the net. Can't say I blame them.

Good luck to all of you joining the losers bench tomorrow!! Here's to a speedy recover.

I'm worried about being able to get my liquids and protein in also. My job is only allowing me to be off the Wednesday of my surgery and expects me to be back on Monday. I've done it before' date=' but it was just a lap gallbladder...not something major like having the biggest part of my stomach cut out! They just don't understand!! I might just have to take the risk and call in sick for a few days to allow myself to get used to things![/quote']

My surgery is tomorrow. I'm super nervous and reading all these threads is making me even MORE nervous. Lol. My starting weight is 320. So I'm excited to start this journey.

Thank you so much!

I'm sept 25. I'm very nervous. Ansthesia...just thought of being put to sleep makes me nervous! But I'm so ready for this surgery:) mix emotions I guess.

Hello Aleembran, I have been put to sleep a few times and had no trouble with it. When you wake up you can't hardly believe the surgery has already taken place. Praying you have peace and no issues during or after surgery.

I agree you might have to call in sick. Wishing you the best.
