that sounds all too familar except i have 2 weeks to decide. you need to weigh the pros and cons and then if you believe in God then you need to pray about it. and if its not too late call up your surgeons office and talk to someone about it

Topic: Soooo happy
Hi to all my fellow December surgery people.  My surgery was 12/4 and I had my my post op on Tuesday.  I am so fortunate and blessed, everything is going so well and I am so happy. I even started light exercise today at the gym. (had been walking alot).

I am eating soft proteins now and still trying to find "full" but so far everything has stayed down. I'm measuring and weighing everything.

I started liquid preop at 269.5
Today I weigh 143 

It's like a dream come true.

Best of luck!  I had surgery on Dec. 4th and already forgot about it and can now focus on my new life.  You'll have that too!  Just be positive and happy and we will see you on the losing side!!!  Let us know how you are!  I'll be thinking of you.

Topic: Emotional rollercoaster
So my surgery is set tomorrow at 8:15 and I am an emotional rollercoaster. I am so rethinking this... I know that this is a great opportunity, and that it will be great for me. But things are just getting to me today..... like not knowing I'd have to be on medicine for 6 months because of gallstones. I am so nervous and scared... and I keep thinking I am young and healthy and if I just work at eating healthy and exercising more that I could lose this weight on my own.

I  don't know what to do. I honestly don't. I think I liked the idea of bariatric surgery alot more when it was unattainable... now that it's tomorrow... I don't know if I want to do this.

Meet the Surgeon Aug 1, 2011 .... hopefully the surgeons office is right and everything will go fast and I'll have surgery later this month.

Topic: RE: PRE-OPT TOMPRROW SURGERY THE 22ND
I am having surgery on the 22nd as well.  Don't give in to temptation now.  It's only a few more days.  The liquid diet is to help you have a better, faster surgery. 

So hang in there!

...and everything went VERY WELL.  Thank you, God.  I really was scared I wouldn't wake up, and shed a fair amount of tears over the idea.  I learned from my fear that I love my life and want to live it to the fullest!

In a way, I can't believe I did it!  I've thought about it hypothetically for many years.  To be post-op feels quite surreal, but very good.
