48 year old with a new outlook on life

All set - visited Dr. Houston last Friday and I'm scheduled for my procedure on Jan. 27th. So excited about this journey and the opportunities that this new life is going to offer me. I am 5'7" 204 lbs. BMI 32. My goal is 140 lbs. hope to reach that within 12 months.

Less than a week out. My procedure is scheduled for this coming Friday. Emotions are all over the place excited and scared. I am not going to back out however because I need this to get health again. Can't wait to just get the procedure and first few days out of the way. I will post again when I start my liquid 2 days prior. I have also started my med's. Got to go to store and stock up on broth, protein shakes, etc. I have been watching my food intake this last week and trying to not drink during meals and slowly winging myself from caffeine. Haven't had a headache last 2 days but the 4 previous days were horrible. Also, not sleeping as well probably because of nerves. Also, need to research a good multi vitamin.

Talked to my doctors office, my anesthesiologist, and the surgery center today and everything is set for Friday morning. Start on liquid pre-diet Wednesday.
