Can't Focus?

[Tibbie 55]

Man - my surgery isn't until the 23rd - and I'm seriously having a hard time concentrating on my job or ANYTHING else!!!! Anyone else having this problem? I need to get my work done - and my head is pretty much NOT in it at all! All I can think about is this surgery!!!

Agreed! I am the same way! I keep sneaking off to the forum....its like my new addiction! Work 5 minutes and then...poof.....concentration is gone!

When I was on the 2 week pre-op liquid diet, I got scatterbrained too. I don't think the diet had alot to do with it. I think the problem was that I was so single-mindedly focused on what I needed to do to keep my head in the game that all other things went to the back burner. Not to worry.....it will get better after surgery

My date is also 5-23 and I'm completely obsessed. Sneaking to the bathroom to check this site. I really need to concentrate at work. Can't wait till it's done and there's no more second guessing.

LOL - soooo glad to know it's not just me! I keep checking on the forum as well!

And Benjammin - I hear ya. I too am paying for mine. I still have $5100.00 to come up with - so on top of everything else - I'm stressing over that - waiting to hear on a loan. I think once that is set in stone - I will feel much better.

I agree with everyone - this forum is my new addiction! Trading one for the other! LOL Maybe it's because the majority of us have fought this battle for so long - and now that things are in motion - we can't wait to get our new lives started!

I was the same way prior to surgery. I ruud read on here every night and morning. I found it hard to think about anything else. Thankfully at three months out things are much better. It's all consuming and a huge change and you want to be sure you are ready. It will get better. Best wishes!

[Swimmer 199]
