YUP i'm february 18th!!!

Hi, I just got my date for Februayr 18th. I am relieved to have the date set but a little scared ....My BMI is very high it is 63 and I am looking forward to helping myself get healthy.... Good luck to all of us!

We should all get a little fb group going for ourselves since we'll all be at exactly the same point :)

That's a good idea! Only 20 more days! I'm nervous but excited for the future! How about everyone else? How do you guys feel?

SUPER nervous!!! I'm scared that something will go wrong, and I'll have to go have something else yanked out like a gall bladder or something. I'm scared that I'll lose weight really slowly, or screw up what I eat and get sick, or any number of other things. I'm scared about people asking me, because I'm not telling ANYONE that I had it.

Feb 18, my bmi is much higher though :( c

I'm afraid to tell people too. I have told a select few so that I have a good support team but some have already been unsupportive or haven't had anything to say to me. Most are happy for me but I just don't want the judgment. I've struggled for 8 years trying to lose weight. They don't know my story. I'm scared that I won't lose the weight :/

My bmi is 51

I am the 17th!!!! BMI is 36. I need a pal to help me.get started on the preop diet

My doc isn't even requiring a pre op diet. I'm trying to put myself on one so I can get my mind around the liquid part of things...

My pre op diet is 1200 calories from now until 72 hours before surgery then for those 3 days I'm on a sugar free clear liquid diet.

Feb. 17th, starting pre op diet tomorrow.
