I am currently on my pre op journey for WLS (Began on September 4th of 2018 and have lost 108 lbs on my own through eating healthy and exercising) and as of today I have finished and completed all testing to be Eligible for surgery ?? Any helpful advice, things you wish you would have known before surgery ect that would be helpful advice would be very much appreciated! I’m just so excited to continue this journey and be the best version of myself I can be!

Conratuations! You're going to do great with the surgery! You having lost so much already shows you are committed to the lifestyle change it takes to be successful. I've seen on here that the most successful people are those who fully embrace switching their lifestyle before surgery as opposed to viewing the surgery itself as the fix.
