My surgery is tommorrow and I just got nervous

[divame 1]

Best wishes to you! My surgery is the following day, 10/2. I am really excited! Perhaps tomorrow will be a nervous one for me. One thing is for sure, there are a lot of wise, supportive mentors on this site and I intend to draw upon their experiences and support. Try to focus on your courageousness to take this step forward. I am excited for us!

Heyy definitely having those same feelings I'm scheduled for tomorrow at 2:45pm I'm just all over the place in my thoughts but I will hopefully find the strength to go on thru with it

You guys really are blessing. They moved me up to 6am

Take a deep breath and pray. You will be fine! I wish it was me. I have to wait till Dec or Jan. I have had to deal with diabetes for three years now and it's still not under control. So glad you can have the surgery before the diabetes set in. I'm praying for a speedy recovery for you!

Well you will be there soon. Well I will let you know my journey after surgery which hopefully help you.

Hi Chass' date=' Your story sounds very similar to mine. I have battled my weight since I was an adolescent. And I've been over 200 for years. Right now I'm 255 and on a 5'2" frame that sucks. For many years I would tell myself, yes, I'm fat, but I'm healthy. Then 4 years ago I had to get on high cholesterol meds. Then I hit 40 and here comes the high blood pressure meds. And I've been diagnosed as pre diabetic. It all caught up with me <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />. Knowing my family history with heart issues, the high blood pressure diagnosis was really my last straw. I am scared of the surgery because I've never been in the hospital. But I know this is my chance to finally take control over my life and make a difference. I know you're scared - I have no doubt that right before surgery I'm going to be a wreck. But you know you're doing the best thing for you and your health. Take care - and know we'll all be here keeping you in our thoughts and prayers![/quote']

Thank you! wow I would say ,"I'm healthy, I'm not that big " but enough. Well I know u scared, I can at least help u with your fears after I go threw my surgery.

I am 5'3 & 1/2 and yes the 1/2 matters!dde09. Weighed 240+ I had surgery May 15 and have loss over 75 ibs! It has been so worth it. I bought a size 12 dress for a funeral a few weeks ago. It was baggy when I put it on Saturday! I am working out and doing things I haven't in many years. You are about to walk into your healing! Go get it Girl! Blessings ~ Melody (BlessedFun2)

Hi Chass' date=' its normal to feel that way. You are going to be just fine. In couple months from now you are going to look back and think why I didn't do this earlier. You are going to love the change. Tomorrow is going to be 11 weeks for me and I am so happy for my surgery. Good luck to you. <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />[/quote']
