Hello. I’m new to all this and only a few days away from my surgery. The moment this all started – – the preop stuff – – I started feeling much heavier. There has to be something psychological about it. I even went to a counselor because I suddenly felt heavier than I’ve ever been in my lifeAlthough my physical form has not changed. It has made the days leading up to the surgery absolute agony in that I cannot wait to get this done. What an amazing experience and I hope our journeys are both positive and ultimately successful. Good luck
