[Angie's_Ocean 213]

I'm looking at packing my bag already lol I'm so excited and can't wait for it to happen!!! I need to keep doing my golden rules so I don't slip back into my "fat habits"

Right??? I would go tomorrow if I could! I have to focus on other things because 2 months seems like forever lol

I changed my surgery date to 10/5 because I go to school on M/W. 3 days later from my original date. But maybe I won't miss as much school!? They say I can return to classes after a week! That's crazy to me!

I will be going on a cleanse starting Monday and then a liquid diet after that. My pre-op is 9/27!

Are you all excited for next month!?

Everyone is so excited, and don't get me wrong I'm also super excited, but I'm kinda scared ****less at the same time. I keep thinking "Do I really need to do this?" and finding reasons not to and then something happens that affirms my decision like "Yes, you really DO need to do this!" I know I'm not going to back down but the thoughts are just there. Anyone else feel this way or just me?

Hey Angie!! Definitely nervous but I keep thinking how incredible and life changing it is! Yes I'll be in pain, and will most probably have loose skin and smaller portions for life BUT I won't have any health issues, I'll b able to fit comfortably in an airplane seat, and I'll be able to walk longer periods of time without being the fat friend that gets left behind.
There are a lot of cons but the pros outweigh by far xxx

Yes especially now that there's a date. I'm scared but excited. I'm trying not to think about it... but I can't help but think about it. I'm feeling kinda conflicted, but I worked hard to get to this point...

10/27 for me! Still amazes me how fast this has all gone. I only went to the free info seminar my surgeon's practice holds on 7/29 - that's just shy of 3mos from when I started to when I'll have surgery!

Oh man, they're having you start pretty early for the liquids! I've gotta do 2wks then the day before is Clear Liquids, so my 2wks doesn't start til 10/11. And I know what you mean about being nervous! I think my heart skipped a beat or two when I actually agreed to the surgery date haha. But I looked into this about 5 or 6 years ago but couldn't go forward (insurance didn't cover it). Now I'm ready to make it happen

I am super excited! I know there will be a period of surgery regret (from what I hear people say) but all the people I follow, say it was the best decision of their life and they would do it over again!

My only thing I am uncertain of is the type of surgery I want. Rny vs sleeve. I am scheduled for the rny and most likely will do that, because I think I would regret it if I changed... but still thinking.
