Omg , I have had one of those ... where I was waking up around that time to get to work, and would wake up while taking the train , wondering if I put on my shoes if I’m dressed or even if I close the door. When you tired your body might be awake but your brain is still snoring. But that’s life.

My last visit to the doc is tomorrow YAY ME! And I’m so nervous cuz is the psychology one, and I heard someone people get denied their surgery cuz of the psychologist. wish me luck!

ROFLMAO about the train, the shoes, or being nekkidy! LOL!

So, don't spaz over the psych eval. It was sooooo easy peasy...mainly just a test with 400 questions. Then you sit and chat for about 30-45 minutes. He'll talk about why you want the surgery, how you think it will help. He's trying to see if you're a psychopath, have hidden personality disorders, if you are withit and right with the world...lol. If you have depression, eating disorders, alcohol or drug probs, that sort of thing, I think it would be trickier and worth a little anxiety. But otherwise, you'll do great! ((hugs)) and so excited for you!

10 days till the big day for me. Starving on this diet but I've lost 12 lbs since Sunday! I had my final group meeting about eating after surgery and Vitamins. Final pre op clearance next week!

Nov 1! Wow! So close, makes this real, doesn't it? How are you doing? I imagine I will be an emotional basket case when I am that close!!

Morning all!

Good luck to all our Nov. 1 Buds!!!! So excited for you. We'll keep the lights on--so check in asap!

I'm officially below the 40BMI threshold this morning--231.6lbs--finally about to break out of the 230s, after 60 days.

I am really nervous. I did ask the anaesthiologist if I could get Valium prior to going into surgery because I was having seriously frightened of the surgery. He was so kind and he said that he would.

((hugs)) Def. take the valium! Also, take your tunes with you and crank them up load on your ear buds! Keep the lights low if you can. I always have a private pre-op room until they wheel me to surgery, so hopefully you will too. Maybe ask your doc for something to help you sleep the night before?

Very sound advice. I wish you so much success in this weight loss journey!
