Am I alone here?

I was totally calm until I was actually naked on the stretcher with the IV in my arm. I completely freaked out 10 minutes before surgery and left the hospital.

BIG mistake. I immediately regretted it and now I have to wait 2 more weeks to have surgery. That's a lot of liquid diet, a lot of waiting, and a lot of money wasted.

When I think about struggling with my weight for the rest of my life, fighting what might be a losing battle, it gives me courage to do the surgery. Just focus on the positives. Freak outs and nervousness are normal, but everyone who goes through with it seems to be happy with their decision.

Uhhhhh.... Naked?!?!? Do you mean naked under your gown so they can catheterize you, right? Not bare skin before you were knocked out, right? Gosh I never really thought of that, but I suppose if that's how they do it... Regardless, I feel naked every day just walking around in full covering clothes.
