vsg in 7 days...so nervous but making peace with decision

I have to thank everyone on here for really helping me keep things in perspective. I have been flip flopping and almost canceled but glad i have not. The fact is I need to lose weight for my health. I want to have another child and want an easy pregnany. I want to stop letting my weight keep me from my true desires. I want to run..really run. Most of all I want to be a mom and wife for a long time to my hubby and baby girl for a long time. Please keep me in your thoughts. I wish I could be knocked out and just taken to the operating room. LOL. Anyway one question I have is should I have a last meal or not bother. I have been on a self imposed low carb diet since April 1st and will start liquids on Sunday then clear liquids the day before surgery?

Thank you! I'm getting a excited. Please pray for a succesful and smooth surgery for me. : )

 You are not an exception here.  It is perfectly normal to have cold feet in this decision.  I am not going to sugar coat this: It is a big step!  It is a commitment! and It is going to change your life and maybe some of your relationships as well.  What you need to ask yourself is why you are doing this.  What do you want to achieve.  How do you perceive it changing your life.  How will you feel when you successfully loose weight? Health benefits?   I wrote down a list of goals and feelings and dreams of accomplishments that were unattainable because of my excess weight when I was going through my ambivalent phase.  Then take inventory of how your life will be if you do not successfully get your weight off.  This is a very personal choice.  I can only speak for myself but I am 5 weeks out and I am extremely happy with my decision.  I have been obese since I was a young child. I really don't know what it will feel like to be thin yet but it is my goal and I am going for it with all of the gusto that I can muster!   I did do a farewell dinner the night before my liquid diet it was ok and I guess at the time I needed it for closure of my old habits.  You will be able to eat again but you will be eating less and healthier in your new skinny clothes.  Good luck to you on your decision,  may success and happiness be yours.     Holly

I had a last supper, no regrets!  You will be so glad you did this, so do what ever you need to do to get to the starting block, and soon you'll be on your way to a new way of life.  Food will always be enjoyable, but you just won't need mass quantities to be satisfied.  Congrats on taking the leap!
