@@Erickah1 - that's pretty typical, being nervous.

Relax, follow your pre-op and ask your team any and all questions NOW. Write them down.

good luck!

When I started the 72 hour freak out, I found this post:

http://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/195065-you-know-you-lost-weight-when/

It reminded me why I was doing this. You can do this when you have a clear goal. And getting your weight back to normal is a worthy goal.

Being sleeved June 8th totally nervous. Bitten my nails to numbs, catch myself shaking my foot, cannot concentrate at work very well. Hard time sitting still. Because I have a teenage daughter and I am a single mom had to make a Will that really brought it home. Oh well we will be okay right!? They do thousands of these around the country. Trying to stay in the moment thinking these are the last pre-op days, we will have new lives pretty soon. Good luck! Stay in touch.

I am being sleeved in 3 DAYS!!!! It is my last work day before surgery and I can't seem to get any work done.

Thank goodness my son is graduating tomorrow because I have been so distracted getting his graduation party ready.

It's surgery. Not without risks but staying the way you are is WAY more risky. Hardest part of the journey for me was my leak test (gross barium swallow). That and not being able to "stuff" my feelings with food anymore. But that's a good thing. I'm in touch with what I'm feeling now and owning and loving myself. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride.

I had the same restless nerves about the surgery until I had the Motility Test. If I can make it through that test the surgery is going to be a walk in the park. Good luck!!
