I just wanted to share my excitement with all of you who are pre-op. I am down 17lbs in just 10 days after surgery (this does not include any weight loss prior to surgery because I didn't have a weight loss because I was not required to diet prior to surgery). YOU CAN DO THIS!!! All the pain and the hunger and the worry, it's ALL WORTH IT!!!!!!! Keep striving towards your goal, we can all get there and this surgery is the way to do that!!!!

How wonderful!!!! I'm so glad you posted. I am in the "is it really worth it phase" of the pre-op diet. Love reading such positivity.

Fantastic. I am almost 5 days post-op and am down 10 pounds from my last weight in 7 days ago. I still wonder if it is worth it when I am smelling delicious food that I am unable to eat. I know it will be worth it in the long run but let's face it, it took years of eating poorly for me to get into a situation that requires surgery to fix. I'm not going to magically stop thinking about food overnight. It's going to take tough love and a complete reprogramming of my mind. One day at a time.
