July 26ers

Thought I'd start a thread for those that are having their surgery July 26th so we can all vent/compare how we are feeling at each stage of the journey. How is everyone feeling at this point? I keep getting this question: Are you stressed or excited? My answer is both!

There's a hilarious (and a tiny bit sad) thread on this site where peeps confess their indulgences. It's called (something like) "Just putting it out there so dirty little secrets can see the light of day"

I did the same ChaCha. I think I'm going to get a mani/pedi tonight to calm my nerves a little bit. I am feeling so anxious right now.

I am too. I am sitting at work and can't even concentrate, but trying not to freak out lol. I did my before picture yesterday. I should have taken it before I started the liquids as I have lost 11 pounds (I don't think it really made that much of a difference). Cant wait for my first after pic :)

I don't think I want to read that lol. I cheated a couple times on my 2 weeks, but got right back on track.

I have watched the videos over and over too. I never thought to see if I could get mine on video. Good idea. I did tell him I wanted to see my stomach they take out though...morbid curiosity, I guess

I definitely would not take zquil tonight. I don't think anyone sleeps the night before surgery. You will get enough sleep during and after.

Surgery is scheduled for 730am tomorrow !!

I have to be there at 7 am, but my surgery is at 9. Best of luck to you!!

To all my peeps that have surgery tomorrow: good luck and speedy recovery! I am so thankful for this group since everyone knows what I have to deal with and going through. Just took my dose of milk of magnesia , let the fun begin. Is it weird that I am not nervous and actually excited and anxious to get it done tomorrow and start the healing process?!
