Hi, my surgery is October 5th. I have been working toward this for almost 2 years. i too have been overweight for my entire life. No one knows about my surgery except my husband, mom and best friend. I don't want people to judge me. I hate that. My mom has not been supportive at all and feels I am making a big mistake. So of course I am starting to doubt myself and the long list of reasons why have this surgery is a good thing to do. Is anyone else freaking out? I am relieved it's almost here but scared too. My life will be forever changed.

I am going to rite aid and buy it after work. However on amazon its 16.99 and Walgreen its 10.99 so i will see this evening.

What's the name of the soap?

I have talked to a few people about "wanting" this surgery early on and got a lot of " you don't need it" comments. So I quit talking. I've told my husband, mom, boss at work ( not real supportive) and 1 good friend about my surgery date. (Oct. 12). I am doing this for myself, and not for any of those negative nellies. I too am scared! I'm mostly scared of pain or complications. But I do know WE CAN DO IT.. AND IT'S SO SO CLOSE!!! ;). We've made a giant decision just by walking in to the surgeons office. I started in my 6 month diet in April, it's been a long wait! I am short so of course every pound shows! Started at 223, now 202. I would like to be 130ish, but that changes too. Lol. I just want to feel better about myself, walk without being out of breath, and keep up with my kids! We do a lot of boating and camping in the summer and can't wait to actually feel ok in a swimming suit without the moo moo covering it.

Good luck to all of the upcoming October surgeries!!

What's the name of the soap?

The name of the soap is Hibiclens. I paid $11.99 for it last night at rite aid pharmacy.
