I leave tomorrow morning at 640am to fly to Puerto Vallarta. Surgery is on the 12th. I've been on clear liquids since yesterday morning. Super hungry and of course I have a headache, but I'm starting to get really excited. I'm a worrier so I'm convinced I'm going to have complications with my revision, but hoping for the best. I hope everyone else is doing well!!

Best of luck with your surgery. I'm a revision too, and had my surgery yesterday. You'll do fine, I'm surprised how well I'm doing. I think the band surgery was a lot worse.

December 18th in the house!!! Only required two do clear liquids pre surgery with an option to do more days. I may do 7 or 10. Scared out my mind!!!! Hoping to inspire my overweight hubby to do it too, but he is NOT amused!

Hey Tammy I am 12/18 too! If u don't mind I would like to keep in touch to see how you are doing

Its 2am. I'm scared and my stomach is a wreck just from the anxiety. I go in Tuesday at 6 am. Just afraid something will go wrong and my baby boys won't have their Mommy. I'm low risk, no health problems besides the weight. Still no rational discussion with myself seems to put me at ease. Especially when I look at their little faces. Feeling alone.

I feel the same way. I have three small kids, and my mind races sometimes with anxiety & worry. What it comes down to is that we never know when it's our time to go, but while we're here, we should do everything we can to make "our time to go" as far into the future as possible. Statistically, this surgery should increase your lifespan. Take comfort in that, and know that you're doing this for your childrens' future, and yours.

Dec 23rd here!

Let me know if there are any fellow 12/23'ers out there - I'd love to stay in touch!

Good luck to all of the Dec 2013 club!

We will be off to an incredible start for the the new year

I'm so sorry to hear this! I hope it's a setback and you can get fixed up ASAP & back on the road toward your goal.

Dec 21 just got my date today =))
