Well I hate to admit it because I am supposed to be a big tough guy lol

But I was nervous as hell the night before surgery and the day of. I did not let any one know but I know my wife had me figured out. I was very quit and watched every one like a hawk lol so she knew I was uneasy.

I think it is natural though. I mean it is a big decision and there are always risk and always in the back of your mind you wonder if it is all worth it and will it work.

Them feelings will go away or lighten up. You will get through it and it will be well worth it :)

I know my belief's helped me also when I handed it all over and relaxed :)

I was REALLY scared up until the morning of my surgery. I think thats pretty normal.

My doctor actually gave me a little ativan for the few days leading up to it as I was getting stressed!

Good luck!!

What you're feeling is completely normal. I went through it as well. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. When I started the process of getting Sleeved I wanted to know exactly what I was getting into.

I just realized that in this big decision. I am... I'm completly scared.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
