Aug 1st is the day

Only started reading these forums for a few days. I'm not sure if they help, or freak me out. Some of the stories are simply rough. It seems most have bearable to fairly mild post op experiences, but some are hard to read. I'll be praying for those. Do many have second thoughts a few days before the date? Ugh. My wife is a little nervous for me.

Well surgery is scheduled for the first one this coming Monday morning. Dr only required one week Optifast 800 liquid diet pre-op. Just a bit nervous. My Pastor and a few friends from Church will be there to give a little comfort and Pray with me before the surgery.

Prior to starting the liquid diet, Weighed 366lbs. Don't know what I may have lost this week.

I'm not one to post on forums, but maybe some support and encouragement will help the nerves.
