Good Luck! I can't wait to hear how you do.

My surgery is this Friday and I am pretty much crazy right now. I am also afraid I will go in and not come out. I am nervy and on edge and just wish it was over all ready. I have been assured that it is all silliness though, that the surgery is the easy part. Good luck to you!

My surgery is on June 28 and I am all sorts of stuff. By stuff I mean nervous, anxious, scared, on edge, excited, and perhaps even a tad depressed. I feel like what some might call a "hot mess". One moment I am excited and enthusiastic and read Cosmo and dream of myself as the skinny chick in the cool clothes. Then the next I am down again, wondering how I will cope and if I will fail. I dress out at 314 lbs and that just doesn't feel good any more. Heck, it NEVER felt good. I believe my worst fear is the surgery itself. My family and friends have all reassured me I will not die on the operating table. Anyone have any words of wisdom to soothe me here? I would REALLY appreciate it.

Thank you to everyone who replied! Your postings made a HUGE difference to me. I am elated that I reached out and you guys were there. Thank you once again.
