On for May 1!

Happy, excited, scared, anxious, happy again! Good Luck to everyone!

Blessings and well wishes to you on May 1. My date is the 12th. I, too have the whole range of emotions, mostly anxious to have it behind me and ready to move foreard.

Hi Kristin, My surgery is also May 1st. Are you doing the liquid diet? I'm hungry!! lol I am also scared and very anxious.

I'm not on a liquid diet YET, but I have to see the nurse practioner on Monday. My surgery/revision is the result of excessive vomiting, so I haven't had to go through the same stuff I did before my first surgery. In fact, I'm not sure I will be asked to do that at all...lucky me....but I am not looking forward to the bowel prep part! I'm sure THAT part hasn't changed. I am fighting feelings of failure from the first operation. I entered in my weight history for the last 20 years and it's awful to see just how bad the yo yo thing has been...even after the VBG. I'll post again after my visit on Monday...maybe I'll be joining you in liquid land. Take care!

BTW, I just figured out how to post pics but can't figure out how to shrink the one I use for my avatar! I can't believe I can't lose weight OR shrink a stupid picture! Well, at least I'm consistent....

Kristin, How did you doctors appt go? By the way what is a VBG? How long ago did you have you orginal surgery? vicki
