I am overly nervous. I keep having dreams that I am going to die. I shared this with a friend, her take on that is, in a way, I am going to die. I am starting a new chapter of my life tomorrow. The fat Hillarie is no longer going to exsit in less than one year. I am so nervous and anxious at the same time. How will my body look, how am I going to feel, what will people wonder..

All I can think about is this new journey for me. I have not been under 200 pounds in so many years. When I think about the fact my son is going to grow up with a healthy mommy that he will not be embarassaed about, I get really emotional.

To the start of my new life.....:thumbup:

I'm so excited for you! I haven't been banded yet, but I can't imagine that it is anything other than normal to be nervous. I get nervous before a blood test! :thumbup: But I'm sure you will do great and we will be anxious to hear how it went! Good luck tomorrow!

I don't want my son to be embarrassed either. Or my hubby. I want him to be proud to introduce me to his coworkers. Good Luck. Here's to your new life.

I think your friend is right and has the best outlook on it. Don't be nervous my friend your best life is ahead of you. Clear those negative thoughts and energy and live in the moment, positive strong and happy knowing you're making the best choice for you and your family. Be strong and best wishes on your big day!

I have the same thoughts as you do I get banded on tuesday dec 8 and all I keep thinking is im going to die or am i making the right choose. So today someone broke into my car and broke a window and told my mother in law that maybe it was a sign not to have surgery.lol But guess what we are doing the right thing for ourself and our kids. Girl I wish you luck everything will be great....
