Hi fellow October folks - Thought it would be fun to do a roll call and to see our surgery months/twins. I extrapolated as much as I could from our Surgery Thread but if I missed anything....feel free to cut and paste and repost and add your date. Good luck to us all!

Can someone add my surgery on for the 7th? @Nancy

We have the same surgery date!!! I’m so excited to finally be in the home stretch. I look forward to seeing how your surgery goes and how you are feeling afterwards.

Checking in on the rest of the first of the month folks.... How is everyone doing on the Pre op diet?

I’m determined to do well. Trying to mix up my fluids a lot (Water, crystal light, and broth once a day) and stay active still-got super tired today. Not looking forward to working the next two days- very active job, but after that 48 hours I’m done working until post surgery.

Going okay. My surgery is oct 1 so i've kicked it in high gear....starting to get really nervous now and the fact I've lost 20 lbs wondering why I'm even getting the surgery? Just having some doubts....

I've lost 40 lbs and people are questioning why I'm doing it. I know how to lose, but I can never seem to keep it off. That's one of my 'whys.' Remember why you started your journey. This isn't the right path for everyone and I've fought myself on this for years, before deciding this is the path for me. I'm scared out of my mind and trying not to let my fear talk me out of this. I think it's cold feet for all of us in pre-op and we wouldn't be human if we didn't want to back out, at least once (or many times). You'll do wonderfully! Think of the 20 lbs lost as 20 lbs lost towards a safer surgery.

Anytime. I may need to hear this in late October, when I'm super close. Every day that ticks by, I get more nervous. We got this!

I think @Cherylmilla has great advice! Thinking about it as 20 pounds closer to a safer surgery is such a great way to put it.

I have also lost 20 pounds and talking to my doctor about the same concern at my last visit really helped me realize I'm making the right decision. I have lost the weight a number of times, but keeping it off has never been easy, plus it's getting harder to lose as I get older, so I'm ready to take control over my health in a way I feel confident will work for me. It's still just a tool, it will help, but not do all of the work for us, we have the knowledge now on how to do this successfully and it is going to aid us in our journey!

It is completely normal to have those sorts of feelings before such a big life change! In fact it's probably better that way so you go into surgery making the best informed decision you can for yourself! Just stay here, use us as a form of support, and we'll all get through this together!
