I'm new to this... My name is Chelsea and I'm having gastric bypass surgery on the 29th. I went to support group last night and when I walked into the hospital, it all became so real. This is where this is happening. My life will change here. I'm 330 pounds right now. My goal is 180. I'm only 24 and I can't remember being under a size 14. I'm scared and excited. I'm mad and sad in a bittersweet kind of way. Sad that the girl looking back at me in the mirror, the girl I've forced myself to love no matter what will disappear.
Does anyone have any advise for settling the nerves pre op?
Thank you!
