I'm getting really nervous too my surgery is Monday but i'm more excited than anything

I'm super nervous! I keep wondering, if I can do it myself, but then I realize I've been fat since I was 6..lol going at it alone just isn't going to cut it! I'm super excited for my husband to see me in a way that he never has!

Katie, you have a great positive attitude. You are inspiring me and giving me confidence for my own surgery (which is next Friday) . Thank you. Best wishes on a speedy recovery.

Make sure to post and let us know how you are doing! Mine is a few days after yours, and your insight is going to be super helpful! Best of luck!

I'm also scheduled for the 9th @ 7:30! WHOOT!!! We got this!!!

My surgery date is Oct. 10th!!! I'm getting more and more nervous every day that it gets closer. I'm excited and nervous!! I'm just scared of the unknown I guess. I think the "dumping syndrome" part of surgery worries me a lot. I know at some point I will want something sweet to eat. Is anybody else worried about it? Or am I crazy lol :-)

I'm scared to death of the "dumping syndrome". It sounds terrible so you are definitely not alone!

I just want to have to worry about anything for at least the next 2 weeks. I've also paid all my bills. :D

Congrats and keep us informed. What liquid diet r u on?

I've been drinking "Oh Yeah!" powered Protein with soy or almond milk. My doctor told me to drink 1200 calories however that has been impossible for me to do. I've also been eating sugar free Jello.
