It is so natural to feel nervous before your surgery. I was excited, nervous and scared all at the same time. I got through it by just reminding myself of the prize, a happier, healthier me who will be around for a long time.

Good luck with your surgery and let us know how everything goes!

I am having surgery Tuesday as well! I don't feel nervous at all. I guess it's bc I am so ready!

Thank you Susan! I totally was ready I

Have worked really hard on my liquid diet ( I ate a few saltines when I had nausea ) but other wise I was completely ready until right now! Ugh! But you are right Susan this is what I need to do for a happy healthy me. Thanks again! Guess I just needed a little reassurance!

I have surgery on Tuesday also and I am anxious scared excited all at once. I worry it will fail like all other diets failed before. I worry I will have a serious complication. I also worry if I don't have the surgery the obesity will kill me so I choose to trust my surgeon, and I know I have a husband who supports me and great people on here who are rooting for me to achieve success. We will both do great!!!

I'm scheduled for 10/15 and I'm also scared, but I know that this has to be done! I'm 29 and have been fat my entire life since as far back as I can remember. I am feeling better by reading others people experiences and success. Good luck to you. Stay strong!

My surgeon told me if I hadn't been nervous/anxious/scared that I wouldn't be 'normal' and he'd worrry. I got sleeved 8/21, nerves and all. :-)
