Two weeks from today....

[onmywaytoonederland 236]

OMG, two weeks from today I will be sitting in a hospital room with a brand new sleeve. Am I nervous? Are you kidding?!?!? I have so many emotions running through my head right now, I don't know how I am going to get through the next two weeks. Man, I feel like a crazy lady! I want this more than anything, I know it is the right thing for me. I am scared. What if I am the only person in the world who does not lose weight with the sleeve? God, I am going to look stupid! I am nervous. What if, after the sole reason to having this surgery is to get healthy, what if I croak on the operating table. Boy, that would really tick me off. I am anxious. I am more than ready for this. I have done tons of research and am well informed, just antsy. I feel like I need to hold my breath until this is over....but I am ready to hyperventilate. Does that make sense? I am still waiting for insurance approval.....what if they deny me? OMG, I am all over the place!

I know I can't be the only crazy lady right now. Are you guys having the same thoughts? Share them with me, will you? Let me know I'm not alone!

Surgery is Friday for me and I feel ALL of those concerns. I have this utterly horrific fear of dying on the table and then having a leak, AND THEN not losing weight is a constant worry. I'm literally scared to death... but also excited and hopeful.

I think every person has had these feelings! Just stay positive and think of where you'll be next year at this time! Cute winter clothes!

Thank you for the replies. I am just all over the place, emotionally. So very unsettled. No unsure, just, ugh, I don't know.....just ready for it to be December 4th so I can be on to the next phase of me. Soon. Lord, send me patience, please! It helps to know that you guys feel that too.
