Is it too early to start an April thread? I didn't see one yet.

I'm scheduled for April 22. I still have to finish PCP clearance and psych then insurance approval but don't anticipate any problems. Once I started my appointments the excitement and anxiety kicked in. I started 6 month supervised diet in August....this used to seem so far away and like a vague idea but its so real now. My anxiety is double as my husband's date is march 18 and I worry a lot more about him than myself. How are all the other April folks doing?

You will do fine I will keep you in my prayer keep us posted ok :-)

Thank u just showered and now have to wait an hour and use the antibacterial wipes across my belly

Tuesday is one week surgery anniversary! My tummy is ok, staples itch and I had some wicked gas pain in the hospital but I waked it out! I am doing well on the liquid diet (not clear but no textures!) yet. Next Monday staples come out and I get to start puréed foods for 2 more weeks. I've lost 28lbs since starting my liquid diet 2 weeks before surgery. I am low energy and wonder if its the 300-450 calories I am averaging per day. Protein at 70g and lots of water but 2oz of cream of mushroom soup fills me up. Anybody else feeling low energy? Hang in there everyone, I wouldn't change my decision for anything!

BTW My Fitness Pal app has been a godsend to help me keep track of protein, water and exercise!

Just dropped my daughter off at my cousins <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> her first time ever away from me for the night she's only 2 and im freaking out that something goes wrong during surgery tomorrow. <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

I know how you feel but sometimes we create our own head games. Stay confident strong and most importantly stay positive! Everything will be just fine. I'll be praying for you! Hugs!

Surgery date 4/18/13 @ 7:30 am
