Not Too Much Longer :)

It's getting closer to my date and I am more excited than nervous thankfully. Luckily or maybe not so, I have had major surgery before where I have been cut open front and back ( spinal surgery for inquiring minds) and I had no complications, healed up very quickly. so I know I tolerate anesthesa well just not the morphine pump, hopefully, I won't be in too much pain. I am more nervous about the liquid diet and nawing off my left arm while I am asleep due to the food depravation . I am left handed so that would be a big problem. I am more nervous about afterward, like what if I don't lose weight? My mother says (she's a nurse) that it is impossible but that irrational fear is still there. I am looking at this surgery as the last option so if it doesn't work, what then? But for the most part I am confident it will work if I work it. I am really looking forward to eating less, I have done enough eating for a few lifetimes. I rather live my life fully now.

God Bless you all,

Love Linsey!

You made me giggle. I can totally relate to the worry about gnawing off a limb while asleep. LOL

You're going to do great :)

I think we all have the worry about not losing weight. By and far the results on this forum are pretty clear - You will lose weight. Whether or not you maintain or reach your goal - now that's up to you and the hard work/dedication you put into your health. You can do this =)

I can feel you, I'm so looking forward to eating less. I know I ate for a few lifetimes also. You will be just fine with the surgery. Much Luck and Love.
