Thank you all soooo much! I know it's weird to say but i am happy I'm not alone and it is comforting to know people feel the same way I do.

My surgery is tomorrow morning at 10am. I am nervous, scared, excited, anxious all the while, knowing this is going to be a good thing.

Part of me is dissapointed in myself that I wasn't strong enough to do this on my own, almost as if I let myself down. Why couldn't I have the will power, it doesnt make me the proudest to say I have had WL surgery but it is what it is and I know I am going to feel better and look better. I have held on to this weight for so many years, it's like breaking up with someone. I am so excited to get my self confidence back which in return will help me be a better wife and a better mom. Overall I know it will make me happy.

Hopefully a good night sleep and a easy surgery is ahead of me :sad: Be thinking about me tomorrow.

Steph

Steph....you'll be in my thoughts and prayers tomorrow....good luck and I hope all goes well.

My date is scheduled for 3/18 and I'm sure I'll be up all night the night before full of nerves, which I think is normal. I hope you get a good night sleep and be ready for what tomorrow will bring.

Hey Luvinlife, I am a February newbie. My surgery date is scheduled for April 22, 2010 and I am freaking out. I have most of my requirements met but I also am not doing so great on my pre opp diet. I am supposed to lose 10% of my total body weight and have only lost a pound so far. I have 5 weeks left. I am so nervous to go under. My doctor has a 0% death rate so that makes me a little more confident but I just have a million what if's running through my head. I have a husband a 7 year old and a 2 year old so, I am right there with you. Do you have a surgery date yet?

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
