    Rockstar!!! Any words of encouragement for us pre-op peeps?

    Best I can offer you is this- Stick to the plan. It works. Like every other bariatric patient before me, I worried that I would be the one it DID NOT work for. Lol. Impossible! As long as you stick to it! Eat to live, not live to eat. And your body will do what it is supposed to. Don't rush the transitions of food to see if you can. Take your time. And when you get far enough out- keep to that 1/2 cup of food! One or two extra bites will lead to 3-4 and you will stretch your pouch sooner.

    Don't wallow in self pity. Get up and move as fast as you can- walk walk walk!

    Good luck in your journey. I still have 60 to go, but my surgeon told me the "sweet spot" of weight loss post op is between months 3-9 so I'm OWNING these next 6 months!!!

    Thank you for the advice - I have 2 days to go before my op and it seems that i am like everyone else in that I am expecting to be the one it doesn't work on. I am trying to remain single minded and not freak out and just let it happen. Yeh, easier said than done some days.
