So I have finally decided to get the WLS. It will be in January, I am just doing basic steps to get started. But as I started reading other ppls blogs and forums I get nervous and a bit overwhelmed did anyone else feel like this?

Yes, I feel overwhelmed too. That is why I joined this forum today. The surgeon's office called my the other day and told me Congrads. that I was approved by my insurance for the GS, then asked me if they could make a surgery date. Then REALITY hit! I still have to take my nutritution class 200b, which is Monday. I told them I would like to wait until I take the class then schedule surgery. I was thinking maybe in January, but the office told me it could be as early as the end of Oct. I am really feeling overwhelmed now.

I am going for February. I went to my first class last week. I sort of expected more from the meeting but there was good information. I start thinking about all the food I won't be able to have anymore lol.... But the dietician said you wouldn't want that junk after the surgery. THis forum does help. I didn't realize how many ppl have done this surgery...

Today I had the visit with the dietician she is awesome. When I was in the waiting room this young girl came in talking to the office staff about her mothers surgery went bad. The patient had gastro bypass and she had really bad complications. Imagine I got scared. I am having the vertical sleeve I weight 258 I am 5'5" and 40 years old. I cannot tell you how scare I am whats going to happen. I just tell myself
