You can always circle back -- do what is right for you now. :-)

You are not your friend, you are freaking out. You do not have the same pathology as your friend either. We all freak out, come down from the ledge. Take a deep breath, and think logically. This surgery is easier than a gall bladder surgery, being obese will affect your quality of life, think of the original decision to do this in the first place. Then if you still want to cancel, just postpone it until you can go to therapy and figure it all out. And you don't have to leave the forums. Good luck.

Sue, she's a low-weighter -- she has other options available to her now and should at least give them a chance. This surgery is permanent. She is freaking out, and for a solid reason. She can always change her mind in the future.
