Waiting game

My surgery is scheduled for 8/18/17 and I'm sooo nervous and excited at the same time! Has any one else had a bit of anxiety just thinking about it?! It's like I'm physically prepared but mentally have a bunch of mixed emotions![emoji30]

Are you starting your 2 weeks liquids soon? I'm starting tomorrow! My pants are getting tight so looking forward to it haha

I feel the same way! I finally all set to go for Aug 24. They wanted to schedule me in April but because of work I had to push it back. Now I am getting a little anxious.


Mine is the 17th of August I feel the same I'm nervous and excited




Hey surgery buddy!!

RNY scheduled for 8/17/17

I know just how you feel. My surgery was 7/5/17 and the closer it got I started second guessing myself, wondering if I should go through with it and supposed things didn't go right. I could barely sleep and I had the uncontrollable urge to just pig out and eat everything (which I managed to resist but not without a difficult struggle). Good luck with your surgery. Oh by the way, I had the sleeve.

That's how I am right now! I'm up all night thinking about it but I know it's in gods hands and we will all be okay! How were you feeling right after surgery?

I am scheduled for 8/16. I need to lose about 200 pounds I have been carrying around for ten years. I am 63 with a host of medical problems. I started the liquid diet today as surgery is two weeks from now. Like you I am nervous. Considering my age, weight, mobility and alternatives, it calms me down. I am focusing on my desired outcomes and where I will hopefully be 18 months from now! Good luck to you!


Omg your 2 days ahead of me! Good luck you will do well(: and Let us know your outcome after surgery [emoji16]


Yes my surgery is 8/24 ! So less than a week after you




Omg are u nervous at all? I'm having mixed emotions and can barely sleep[emoji30] lol
