[tiredofkeepingup 66]

Anyone experience the same thing I am? I am nervous and having a little anxiety. Surgery is just 3 weeks away!

I also get waves of panic in scheduled for November 5th. We have to remember we will not regret it and be so much happier. Sending happy thoughts your way!!

I think anxiety is part of this journey. Major mind game because we are manipulating an organ. I keep beating myself up thinking why would I want to cut apart a good and healthy god given organ. Nothing else is wrong with me. So I look to the further into the future and try and see myself there. Going on a trip in January and being at least 30lbs lighter, putting on a dress, hiking, running a 5k that I promised my son, and skiing in my new skis that Ive only used once. Not having to use the"extender belt" on a air plane. And riding every ride on my kids spring break next year at universal and them having to keep up with me.

My surgery date is Oct. 22nd. I am also having some anxiety. I'm really excited and ready to be on the losers bench but there's still the thought like WTH are you doing to yourself?
