Is there anyone who wants to be a buddy or a mentor? I am having my surgery on May 6th!!!

@kelly1223. My surgery is tentatively scheduled for May 6 also:). We could be buddies:)

I am also currently scheduled for May the 6th.

have completed all of the insurance required things, and met with the NUT yesterday, starting the 4 week plan tomorrow.

This is my first time joining a Bariatric Support group. I would LOVE to have an accountability partner. If anyone is interested. I am close to 4 years out. Have lost 115 lbs, recently regained 15-20. Don't have anyone currently to be accountable to. Want to nip this thing in the bud before it gets any worse.

Hey guys!!! It is hard to believe that we are almost there. I was looking at my calendar last night and I was like holy crap there are like 4 1/2 weeks left before surgery. I just my bloodwork done and I have to redo some of them. I had blood in my urine and start Vitamin D. Since today was easter, I over indulged big time. It was kind of like a food funeral. So weird. I have found myself thinking of all the foods that I want to eat before I start my two week liquid diet prior to surgery. This is to shrink my live. I guess my clinic requires all their patient's to do this. So really it is 2 1/2 weeks before I start preparing for surgery. I still have to go to my pre op appointments. That includes the PA, nutritionist again, and an exercise guy.

I have found myself being more motivated to get outside and going for walks. I took my poor little dog on a 2 hour hike yesterday and boy in my back and hips yelling at me today. Oh well. I was really talking to my dad about this whole surgery thing today and about my liquid diet and he was like you aren't even going to need surgery. At the end of your diet, you are going to weight 130 pounds. LOL, not quite dad...

How are you guys doing? Are you getting prepared, nervous, scared, second thoughts?

I am feeling more focused every day. Went out with my brother and we ended up at Outback for lunch, I could have splurged big time, but ended up having the grilled chicken breast, steamed vegetable's and a Caesar salad. I am already asking myself "is it worth it" food questions, Weird......

I'm scheduled for May 12 and I'm excited, nervous and impatient! It seems like forever.
