innerme 26 Posted June 16, 2012 I have to be at the hospital at 5:15 MONDAY morning and am scheduled for the 1st surgery of the day at 8:15. I have been so busy this week that I haven't had time to even think about it very much. All I can say is Wow! several times today I have thought to myself "hey girl don't you realize you are about to voluntarily remove 85% of your stomach, are you crazy? why aren't you nervous?" I am so at peace about this whole thing it's so totally unbelievable. My only thought I keep having is what if I do this and don't lose the weight I'm gonna feel like a complete failure! Non-sense aside I can't wait to get my life back! 1 jwini reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Piplula 709 Posted June 17, 2012 I thought the very same thing the night of my surgery! I promise..if you do what your weight loss surgery team tell you to do..you will lose weight. I am out 9 weeks and some days and down 53.5 # so I am sure you will lose weight! I'll save you a place on the loser's bench! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IsaacsGram 58 Posted June 17, 2012 Your post is the reason I'm not going to tell too many people...just in case I can't make this work...just like all the failed diets of my past. But I think having this site and fellow sleevers who have gone before us will make the difference this time! Like you, I have never been more sure of my decision to have this surgery. Best wishes to you and your journey! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
