Got my tentative date of Sept. 22! Liquid diet starts Sept. 8. I have cried tears of joy, I can't believe it's finally happening!

    Don't mean to be "negative", but please be prepared for the realities of the surgery too...discomfort, frustration, plateau times, etc....don't get me wrong...I think it's awesome and I'd do it again in a heartbeat, but you WILL experience some 'not so fun' aspects too. Pain wasn't bad; it was more the frustration and impatience..the little things that'll get you off-track if you don't realize they are inevitable and TEMPORARY.

    Congrats on joining the "losers" club!!! LOL!!

    I am more than prepared for the realities of this surgery. I've dealt with realities of being miserable and frustrated from being overweight my whole life and I understand that it's not a quick fix by any means. I have been more than patient during this process, which originally began nearly 10 years ago. I'm ready and fully prepared to deal with whatever experiences it may have. I do appreciate your honesty. I hope everything has worked out for you and you are doing well despite the challenges!
