My surgery date is April 14th and u start my liquid diet on April 1st. Have u purchased all the things u need.

I just got scheduled for April 22nd and I was expecting to be super excited, instead I am freaking out and second guessing my decision. I am up all night worried, can't sleep, nauseated, I can't seem to find any peace. I tried writing everything down and just want to get it off my head! I've tried watching the videos on youtube that originally inspired me but nothing seems to be working. I feel like they dragged this out way to long and it lost all its excitement about a month ago. I started my journey in June last year and was expecting a December-January date but they dragged it out so long that it lost its excitement. April is a terrible month for me because my family celebrates three birthdays this month and I will be in the hospital for my son's 17 th birthday. And six days out on my birthday. Maybe I'm self sabotaging. Nothing seems to be making feel better. But the thought of cancelling really bothers me too. I will be so disappointed if I can't get myself under control and go through with this.

Diane I'm sorry u have lost ur excitement. Maybe take some time to reflect on why u began this WLS journey and the benefits u will reap. Maybe envisioning urself at goal or envisioning having to do all the things uve been limited doing being over weight. We have 3 children one of which is my 22 year old daughter that's having VSG surgery on the same day as myself so I totally understand not wanting to miss the upcoming bday celebrations including ur own but many more bdays will come but will this opportunity be here for u next year or the year after? Idk about u but I have some health issues as a direct result of being obese and even more so than losing the weight I want those issues to go away. I hope u find something that sparks ur excitement again but in the end this is a personal decision that only u can make. Whatever u decide is best for u to have the surgery or not we all support u. Wishing u the best and if we don't speak again Happy BDay!

I haven't got everything I need yet, but my sweet husband is in to bodybuilding and he got on a website and got me all kinds of free samples of Protein shakes and drinks so I could find one I like.

I think it's pretty normal to be second guessing. I am going through that too right now. As with you, I have my birthday this month as well as 3 other family members. We all celebrate with food and I am just going to have to learn to celebrate along with them without food. I was extremely excited after my meeting at the end of February and as soon as I had my surgery date, I said oh sh**! haha....I know everything is going to go great and I just need to keep the positives in my vision instead of focusing on the negative. I started sabotaging and making excuses as to why I shouldn't. Good luck and try to keep the good stuff in your site, you can do it

Thanks rodeomom969, today has been a little better, I've just promised myself to kick it out of my mind everytime I think about it. I will probably be all good till tonight, lol

Curvycakes, thank you. . The support on here has been amazing and I love all the information. Today I am feeling positive and just wish I could jump in the car and get this over with, lol
