Prayers up for your surgery and peace and calm.

Being anxious and nervous is okay, we've all been there. The surgery will certainly change your life but trust me...the changes are for the better and you will do well. Don't get frustrated, the first few weeks are difficult but they pass quickly and then it gets pretty darn easy. I love my sleeve and I know you will too. good luck and welcome to a wonderfully healthy life style.

Good luck and god bless you!

Good luck and god bless you!

calm down, you have the rest of your life to be nervous :D

its true that your pre-op nerves and excitement and "concern" et al are very common

you will have other types of emotions post op too

but its all good :)

don't know what WLS you are having :blink:

if its like me, and you are having the sleeve - that is the best choice :)

but if you are having some other type of WLS - that is the best choice too!

you are starting your new life!!!

that is very exciting!!!

wonderful that you have a good support group via your wife and sons

very helpful :)

did you know that statistics have proved that having WLS on a Friday September 26th, 2014 is the best day of the year to have surgery!!!! ;)

good luck

speedy recovery :)

@@poginut and @@BeagleLover time is winding down for us! I've messed up a little yesterday and today on the pre-op called the dr. office and they said I should be fine. I had a lot of protein!! And it wasn't liquid form! I'm nervous and anxious I can't wait till this is over.... Good luck to you both on your new life's journey to be healthy and fit and a may your recovery be speedy and smooth ????
