Tomorrow is the day!

Well my surgery is in just under 12 hours now. I'm really nervous and excited at the same time. I really can't wait to get my new life rolling and get myself healthy! I'll post up as soon as I can with some updates. Fingers crossed!

Best of wishes!!

Good luck and a speedy recovery..keep us posted

Good luck!!!

Congrats! I wish you all the best, fast recovery, speedy healing, NO complications, no constipation and steady weightloss ♥ You'll do amazing and good luck.

I'm less than two weeks out. I remember the night before surgery- I didn't sleep much. I remember thinking the day of "are you really going to do this?" I did!! I woke up and was pleasantly surprised! The pain was really like 2/10 of what I was expecting. I was terrified- and woke up thinking "is that it?"

You'll be great. But I must say the post op is the had eat part dealing with food. I have to be on liquids for 3 weeks- and that is the hardest part! The surgery itself is a breeze.

Best of luck! I was you just 13 days ago.

Glad you are doing well! Such a relief when it is over. If you are like me- in 2 weeks you'll be hungry and ready to be over the liquids! Haha! Today I chewed up a bite of meatloaf and spit it out. Gross, I know, but I was dying for a taste. I cook dinner every night and sigh! But I know this too will pass.

Take care! Congratulations!
