Cyndicope 0 Posted January 22, 2013 Hi! I'm Cyndi and I live in Guatemala. Just emailed my surgeon and scheduled surgery for the 26th of February. I know this is the right choice for me but I am super nervous. Of course hoping everything goes well in the surgery but I'm mainly nervous about afterwards. I've never had any kind of surgery and because of my size (weigh 450) my surgeon is going to open me up instead of doing a laparoscopic procedure. Anyone had it done like that? I'm nervous about being able to do things like get up from bed or a chair afterwards. Also about not being able to satisfy the mental hunger even if I don't feel it physically. I know it's going to be a huge change and a lot to get used to but I need this drastic change. Thankfully all of my tests have come back great and I'm healthy, but I know at this weight it won't stay that way without drastic change. I'll be having the surgery here in Guatemala and think I have found an excellent surgeon. Anyone else get the operation internationally? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
