Thank you! Wishing everyone the same ?

Tomorrow is the day before surgery so I’m on an all clear liquid diet tomorrow. Doing the shakes for the past two weeks hasn’t been that bad, but the thought of only apple juice for 24 hours does not sound amazing. Oh well.....here we go. :)

Hi,

I like things explained to me also for the reasons why, not just told, here do it.

I’m glad you got your answer.

Don’t be sorry, you are not late - arrived just when you needed to.

Take a deep breath, about a goal weight, take your time. I had the same nerves about should I be doing this, is it the right thing. All I can say is I somehow came to accept it. Because I’ve done my research on the Dr, I’ve struggled too long trying to lose weight on my own. I realise there is a lot to learn and plenty of things ahead that are unknown, however, just taking one step at a time. It was also helpful for me to listen to a lady on YouTube who documented her sleeve surgery. She went into detail and was intelligent and balanced about her approach. It gave a firsthand insight as to what it was like at each stage. I’ll find the link and add it on here for you.

there are movie vlogs on her YouTube ch.

wishing you all all the best @PurpleBloom

Thank you so much for taking the time to reply, @TheFlinstones (great name, BTW) I've watched her first video and look forward to watching the others.
