Hello, I'm new here and just looking to make some friends who are on a similar timeline. My surgery is scheduled for 3/28/17. I'm starting to get nervous

About me: I live in the greater Cincinnati area on a 200 acre farm with my husband and our 5 dogs, 7 cats, 2 horses, and many cows and chickens. I am 34 years old and suffer from generalized anxiety and depression, and some social anxiety. I am an introverted person, so making friends online is easier. I love riding my horses, being outside, music, watching sports, and reading. After surgery I hope to get back into running, weight lifting, and hiking. I am an open-minded and sensitive person.

My biggest fear currently is that I will have the surgery and still manage to fail by regaining weight or not losing. I've struggled with my weight on and off since my teens.

Looking forward to sharing the journey!

I had mine 3/10. I kept mine on the down low for the same reason.
I'm still on liquids and getting bummed out. This has been the hardest thing I've ever done.

Mine is 4/17, what is the hardest part for you?

Hi SarakNKY,

My surgery is scheduled for the 30th, I started my preoperative diet a few days ago, the first 2 days were difficult, but seems to be getting a little better! How's your preoperative diet going?
I'm actually from Ohio, but currently live in Texas.
I know this is is a difficult journey ahead of us, but we have to stay positive and not allow our past failures to determine or prevent our future successes! I look forward to sharing the journey ahead as well!

I am scheduled for the 28th also. My original date was 3/16, but I caught a bad cold and the doctor's office wasn't comfortable doing the surgery while I was sick. It was so discouraging as I had already done the two weeks of liquid diet, and it was cancelled the day before. Now I'm back on liquids and anticipating surgery on Tuesday. I would love to be connected with others who are having their surgery around the same time.

I'm having surgery on Thursday! I would love a buddy!

Hi I was just sleeved last week 3/20 and would love to talk with people on a similar journey. I am 35, married, have a 3 year old and a 10 month old. Live in Miami and work from home. : )

My surgery is 3/30

I had the chance to pick 3/28 but I chose 3/30 because it was closer to the weekend and less days of work for my hubby to miss. Now I am wishing I had chosen 3/28 LOL The wait is just so hard. I am sooooo ready to be on my way to saying goodbye to obesity. I just have to keep myself busy this week I guess.

My surgery is 3/30

My surgery is on 3/30 also. I would love a buddy to gain and provide support to as we go through this!
