Well, I just took my "before" pics (my surg is in 5 days). I always avoid cameras and I am truly shocked to see myself now. I was unaware of my true size. Come on 5 days.....

I didn't take any pictures, nor did I save any clothes. Those memories I can do without! Always looking forward...

Mine's July 30th too! You're the first one I've seen with my same date.

And I'm sure I'll keep the pics but they disgust me right now!

Cool! We can keep each other posted. What time is ur surgery? Yes the pictures are something I'm not proud of, but will be a reminder of what I don't want to look like.

My surgery is at 7:30. You?

I plan on keeping the pics, like you said, as a reminder. But, I hope nobody sees them. I was embarrassed myself, and horrified! But, we're down to four days. :)

I'm so excited....and maybe 2% scared.

LoL me too. 7:30 am but the nurse said I have to check in at 6 am. What I did with my pictures is e-mailed it to my self and made a folder and saved it, after that I deleted it from the camera. Now I know no one can see my pictures. Yes I agree excited and a lil scared. I'm getting the sleeve procedure. How about you?

Not sure what time I have to be there....probably bout the same. That's a good idea with the pics cuz I sure don't want people to come across em on my camera! I'll have to do that too. :)

I am getting the full bypass. I wish it were this time, next year, so I'd be skinny!!! LOL.

LoL! I know right. There's a part of me that wants to pack some of my colthes that I don't want to fit in, but I know it to early. I do have an old black dress I bought years ago that I never put on, but it will be my inspiration dress. I would like to fit in it. LoL!

I'll be happy to fit in some of the stuff I have already! But yeah, km already wanting to throw everything out and start over! I wear scrubs to work and I can't wait to get smaller ones. :)

Are you on a pre-surg diet of any kind?

Yes I'm on a two week liquid diet. I cheated 3 times, but I'm good now I don't care for food. I have to drink 5 Protein shakes a day. I can have sugar free Jello, sugar free popsicle, crystsl light, and chicken broth. How about you?

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
