pre surgery advice?

Well I am two months away from having lap band surgery and I am getting nervous. Emotional to I think I might actually be scared to be skinny. I have been overwieght my entire life. Picked on, looked at, and skimmed over by the rest of the world since I can remember. I am on here looking for insight, guidance, friends, and support. I hope I find these things along the way. I have read a few blogs to get acquainted with the site and am amazed at the wieght loss. This gives me high hopes. Anyone with any pre surgery advice please send me a message I would be very grateful. :tounge_smile:

God I hope this works.

I am so tired all the time. I cant wait to get this wieght off. My whole body aches after work. Doing anything is such an effort. I hate being like this. I have been dieting and walking and still nothing is coming off. Makes me wonder is the surgery will even help. Lost 2 pounds last month. It depresses me when I hurt like this. I look at people twice my age and watch them run up a flight of stairs at work. While I slowly knees and back aching the whole climb up them. God I hope this works. I dont think I can take any more aleve then I already do. Mind of a thirty years old body of a ninety year old. God I hope this works.

night before surgery

I have surgery in 11 hours and i cant sleep a wink. To top it off my ex called and there are still alot of unresolved issues there so on top of nerves i got all them issues. I have to admit this is the most scared I think I have ever been. Spent most of my time pre op talking myself into it and saying I can always back out... Well wish me luck and pray for me off we go into the wild blue i guess.
