Patricia Tate Johnson 43 Posted May 6, 2014 I think it's natural to have a bit of anxiety prior to a life changing event; focus on the life after and the future you envision once the process is compelte. Tonight do something special for yourself--bubble bath by candle light, quiet reading (if you like to read) or anything you like to do that is soothing and calming. I will be sending you happy, healing thoughts. When you feel up to it, let us know how you are doing. 1 1Day1Life4Now reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

npwomen 37 Posted May 7, 2014 You are probably asleep by now and won't read this until much after your surgery. Just want you to know I'm holding warm thought in my heart for my new sleeve sister. You have an amazing new life ahead of you. Rest well, follow your docs plan for you one day at a time, and the excess weight will start melting away. 1 Mississippi Girl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
