May 2

Hi. I am 20 years old and weigh 278. I have surgery on May 2. I am super nervous. I have to do a 12 day low carb diet and a 2 day liquid diet. I think I went over the carbs a few days. I am getting nervous but really excited. My biggest fears are not losing weight and the loose skin. Hope to make friends.

I'm feeling great! I just started my puréed stage this past week. I'm healing well with no problems so far. I'm just having trouble getting my protein and water in, but I'm trying to work on that.
