Please do not freak out any more than you have to. No need.

I was very apprehensive Saturday. Surgery was Tuesday. I wondered if I was making a good decision. Did I pick the right surgery, as the surgeon was open to either sleeve or bypass. I thought about dying on the table. No partner, no children. Would I only be remembered as the fat woman who wouldn't lose weight with will power, who died on the table?

So much fear. That's why i said only freak out as much as you have to.

This surgery is not like getting your nails done. Call in one day get them done on the next. No this is something you have thought about and talked about for quite awhile. Tests, meetings, dr's appointments...you have gone. Through a great deal to get here. Trust your decision and go for it.

Take a deep breath. Trust in yourself and the professionals that will surround you before, during, and after surgery. Be at peace.

Good luck!
