Start pre op in 10 days - very excited

I am so excited, I start the pre-op Whey Protein drinks in 10 days and I can hardly wait, it means my surgery date is nearly there (Oct 6).  Boy, have I waited a long time for this day to arrive, 3 years on the Saskatoon waiting list, and now it is finally happening here in Regina.

I have so many thoughts going on in my head, but no-one to share them with, not because I dont have freinds, but because I dont think they would truly understand and know what I am feeling right now, because most of them are a "normal" size.

I wonder how much weight I will be able to loose,  Im 5'8" and I weigh 271lbs but im not sure what to expect, I have no idea what I should be.  Is there anyone out there that can share their post-op experiences with me.  I'd love to hear from you.

From, very nervous, Jules.

Jules,

First of all, Congrats! That is soooo  awesome!

I would encourage you to post your thoughts and feelings and then give people on this board opprotunity to respond.

If anything, I'd like to help anyway I can.
